The Men from Shiloh (Theme)

[@veralynguillory8579]

I miss the those good movies so much. They stop playing it In our region. Loved the Shiloh gang. I enjoyed looking at them they made me smile. Even when I felt sad.

[@alexanderschiffauer1330]

Ennio Morricone was and is the BEST! RIP. Ennio

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

The Good old days when we had great westerns and great Theme s 👌

[@peterkin1010]

It has been donkeys years since I last saw this. Came into my head and decided to see if it was here. It was!

[@chrisinfiesto835]

Gotta say, at 10yrs old I was getting bored w/ The Virginian. Ennio’s music sparked my interest in this season..... 💯🔥🤙🏽😎

[@JoeLightcloud]

Now your talking , the maestro Morricone , what a composer. loved it!!

[@JAMES2659COOPER]

Thanks for posting this classic theme Valdez244....haven`t heard this for ages, the maestro at his best...adios amigo.

[@Valdez244]

Happy to oblige Amigo. :)

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

Jim birthday is coming up on the 18 th of April il b remembering him at this time 4 years since his passing on the 6 of April one of the best ❤

[@rogerangress1098]

Well Ladies & Gentleman, Up until this year; I never heard of Percy Faith's ballad for "The Virginian" except once back in 1991 whilst surfing channels and seeing Charles Bickford in the opening credits. But I'd say for 2016, that beautiful ballad theme of 'The Virginian' has won me over and the authenticity of 'The Virginian' is magical and I guess seeing it now some 45 years after the show got canceled. I've a lot of catching up to do. I only wish Charles Bickford would have lasted a bit longer. The chemistry between him and James Drury is wonderful and very respectful for season five and six. A very well done western, different, but very believable. I'm glad I found this great moral series of honor and right against evil. I'm hooked. RMA...Bakersfield, California.....

[@michaelsadlo4632]

They never Show this movie here in Austria 🇦🇹 or in Germany, just the great series, but its more or less 30 years ago, why they dont Show this here? 500 cable and Satellite channels but only garbage. Thanks alot for uploading

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

We need to get these shows back on out TV western channel and get rid of all the false TV we have today over here

[@npsdave]

Absolutely love this theme. Of course the original was a classic, but this work took it to a new level. Just has that rousing feel to it. Thanks for posting.

[@Valdez244]

Yeah Dave, love Faith's original myself, but the Maestro's theme has that little extra punch to it.

[@nicfewer8393]

Rest in Peace, Ennio Morricone.

[@lynnpoint6395]

My uncle said this credits scene reminded him of his senior year in high school, the last three months of it. All his friends that he'd gone to school with for years had left, except for him and one other (like The Virginian and Trampas) and there was a new kid that hung around with them (like Tate). They were also on some sort of internship mostly and hardly ever went to the school itself (like the Shiloh, which was hardly shown in the last season). And they had an overpowering sense that something special was coming to an inevitable end...which was what was happening in the final year of this television show.

[@veralynguillory8579]

Thanks for sharing, I love them so much. They were a family

[@deborahrobben7721]

Great theme song! It's perfect!

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

I remember Jim drury at this time and Doug mclure and the great rousing Theme s R I P

[@terrelll.howard8660]

He is a master when it comes to a western theme.

[@nicfewer8393]

I've met 9 of the cast at several cast reunions, two in Memphis and one to celebrate Jim Drury's birthday in Swanton, Ohio last year and have also met Doug McClure's daughters, widow, and grand daughter at his induction into the Hall of Great Western Performers this time last year. I first met Jim on his visit to Ireland in 2008.

[@zimjun7]

Oh! How I miss Doug McClure! In Maine we had a neighbor who looked so much like him and personality. And HE passed away in 1990. Miss him too! Name was H E ( Harold Edward. )

[@carolinaroyboy]

Ennio Morricone , an Italian composer should never be forgotten. He is one of the greatest composer-conductors ever.

[@darlenetisdale1641]

@@carolinaroyboy I do believe Ennio Morricone is immortal already.

[@FreethoughtsOnline]

I Have an original VHS tape with three episodes: The Best Man, The Ramrod, The Legacy Of Spencer Flats. Watched one episode so far.

[@mariaaracelisandovalmena2633]

Es una melodia muy linda. La música la sentimos todos, no importa tu nacionalidad.

[@flywithseaguls]

Never knew that it was Morricone. But who else could do such a theme?

[@Advisorit]

One of the best TV theme songs.

Classic moricone great Theme

[@MontseAntares28101961]

¡¡¡¡ GREAT THE MAESTRO MORRICONE !!!!

[@jamillagreen7999]

That is why this song reminds me of spaghetti westerns. It was composed by an Italian. Love this,and the regular seasons theme.

[@hasanx4637]

composed by the Italian. Morricone.

[@DanielSanchez-og4ox]

Not just any Italian. Il maestro Morricone.

[@billzardus95]

This series is now available for viewing on Free vee. I wasn't even aware of this series until today. I just watched one with Greer Garson & James Whitmore in it from 1970 (Season 9 Episode 8) that was pretty good. Well written, which would explain how it lasted 9 seasons. But I HATE that the Virginian & "Men of Shiloh" both are listed on Comcast/Xfinity without a list of the guest stars and their bio's being made available to viewers interested in watching. The guest stars, to a large extent, on old westerns determine whether I am going to have any interest in watching the episode. It really annoys me that this information is available for other westerns but it is not available for these 2 shows. WRZ 2023-03-06

[@npsdave]

That driving guitar pumps it up to another level in my opinion.

[@miguelsilva830]

Lindo clip.. filme completo precisa postar 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@frank87698]

Very great TV series from the times of my parents . I didn't see much of it . I hope I can find episodes of this great western .

[@cybersoil100]

I just read an article that James Drury wrote about his time at The Virginian. Apparently, while doing a fantastic job acting, Lee J Cobb actually hated the series and left during season 4, although he was making a ton of money. Over the rest of the series they brought in various actors to portray the ranch owner finishing up with Stuart Granger. According to James Drury, Granger was a disaster and wanted the series about himself and even fired the camera crew to hire his own camera crew for the episodes he was in. James Drury said he did not like Stuart Granger at all, unlike the other people who played the ranch owners whom he liked very much. Also, I personally hated the name change in the final season from "The Virginian" to "The Men from Shiloh" and the terrible new opening theme which was actually written by Ennio Morricone, a world class Italian composer which did many themes for many movies including Good Bad and The Ugly. The original theme for "The Virginian" (which was strong and robust) was fantastic and suited the show perfectly, just like many other high-quality show themes of the time. The 1960s was actually the best decade for show themes (Hawaii Five-O, Mission Impossible, Bonanza, Star Trek, The Time Tunnel, It Takes a Thief, etc, etc). I also hated the way they changed the actors... mustaches, beards, sideburns and hair which really didn't add anything to the series but I guess it was a sign of the times, the early '70s and late 60s.

[@phillyflash43]

Thanks. I've been marathon watching the show recently, just started on the 5th season. Was wondering why Cobb became so invisible even though he kept getting top credit. Read that Roberta Shore left to raise a family.

[@jurandirfortes8254]

😃filmaço com aço, com artistas de renome, assisti muito estes seriados😄

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

Charles Bickford was very ill when finishing his scene s and didn't tell anybody how sick he was he was still one of the best as was John McEntire Charlie's also played a big part in The Big Country

[@grannydyess]

Great composer

[@grannydyess]

Percy faith was the great composer who wrote the Virginian song

[@jrewing1512]

R.I.P. The Virginian.

[@jehobden]

It's funny to think of Stewart Granger going from this to playing the manager of Menudo (featuring Ricky Martin as the group's youngest member) on LOVE BOAT in 1985.

[@peterohalloran5954]

We miss them all at this time

[@MMitchellMarmel]

I'm familiar with the Percy Faith version of the song, but this Morricone version is quite nice! 'Course, now I'm wondering if they could have gotten Jerry Goldsmith to do "The Men From S.H.I.L.O"*.... *Supreme Headquarters, Interjurisdictional Law Officers

[@billzardus95]

Doug McClure must have spent half his adult life on the Virginian (9 years) & The Men From Shiloh (9 years). Men Of Shiloh is now available for viewing on Free vee. I wasn't even aware of this series until today. I just watched one with Greer Garson & James Whitmore in it from 1970 (Season 9 Episode 8) that was pretty good. Well written, which would explain how it lasted 9 seasons. James Drury and Lee Majors must have left the show by then. But I HATE that the Virginian & "Men of Shiloh" both are listed on Comcast/Xfinity without a list of the guest stars and their bio's being made available to viewers interested in watching. The guest stars on old westerns, to a large extent, determine whether I am going to have any interest in watching the episode. It really annoys me that this information is available for other westerns but it is not readily available for these 2 shows on Comcast. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3epaoOblrWAq5I TCM Tribute to Greer Garson WRZ 2023-03-06

[@peterohalloran5954]

They changed the title to The men from SHiloh and the costume s and as james Drury said nobody could find The Virginian any more

[@gerardkijak1686]

Maestro Morricone

[@ferdinandlacour8531]

Même si cette musique reste très belle, je ne retrouve pas les envolées de Percy Faith, ni sa mélodie du VIRGINIAN...

[@darthseptic9737]

The first two versions sound very similar--both like Morricone's version. But the third sounds like a cover. Are the first two different and both by Morricone?

[@Valdez244]

It's the original opening and closing titles by Morricone and the third section is a cover version

[@reinerheupel3347]

Das sind meine Jungs.

[@BurtBowers]

This show couldnt have lasted more then a season if that I cant even remember it as a youngster & I liked westerns.

[@roberthughes9856]

It's proper title would be The Virginian, Men from Shiloh. This was just an update of the theme music but the series, The Virginian, started about 1962 and was one of the biggest TV shows in it's prime.

[@samuelrhodes9053]

The show only lasted about a year but was very good . I discovered the show by accident and was enthralled by its music score .

[@francisgrandchamp153]

Retroingegneria musicale, la musica da spaghetti western del grande Ennio Morricone cambia i codici delle sigle delle serie western. Ma il primo tentativo è di Hugo Montenegro per la serie tv western "The Outcasts" (gli sbandati in RAI)

[@tommoulton5002]

Anyone tell me where you can buy this theme song in Stereo CD perhaps?

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

Morraconi at his best ❤

[@alanwise2996]

The final irony of tv westerns killed of Hollywood movie westerns with goody goody music by Percy faith and goody goody westerns like Bonanza and to some extent The Virginian it took an Italian director and musician and a tv cowboy to re invent the western movie an tv as well look at the credits of the men from Shiloh no longer the clean cut James furry Doug McClure Sara lane and Percy faith turned in to credits of Sergio Leoneesqe and Ennio morricone

[@alanwise2996]

James drury not furry

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

They changed the costume s and The title to The men fro Shiloh and i remenber jim saying people fans would switch on their tv and The Virginian was nowwhere to b found i guess it just faded out all good things had to come to an end sometime ❤

[@charlesseaton6199]

The final year of the Virginian. Too much a of a departure, however. I faintly remember an episode where Trampas asked someone to teach him how to make a fast draw. But the Morricone theme was fresh.

[@myfreejoe]

Im a little confused- exactly HOW does this tie-in with The Virginian?

[@ellentuton7642]

After the family left the show Stewart Grainger owns "Shiloh" the men ride out in to the West away from base "Shiloh" but keep in touch/connected.

[@MontseAntares28101961]

¡¡¡Today i'm the first person ... what see your video Valdez !!! Wowwwwwwwwwwwww Fantastic... i put in my wall!!!! Happy dreams for you... I like this!!! XXXXXXXXxxxxxx!!!

Thanks Montse, glad you enjoyed it. :)xxx.

[@Panzerdeal]

Preferred the origonal theme..

[@adrianwalker1242]

Brilliantly haunting theme.

[@q98rt710]

This was a great theme song. However Men from Shiloh only lasted one year after being switched from the Virginian. I liked Lee Majors character of Roy Tate.

[@jrewing1512]

In this season, The Virginian appeared in less episodes.

[@saxonwench1]

love love love this!!

[@matthewakian2]

Nice, Nice intro man. Influenced by The Good, The Bad and The Ugly no doubt.

[@zpider242]

matthewakian2 Both by Morricone strange enough

[@indieshack4476]

Wonderful theme, brings me back to the early 1970's - the visuals perfectly capture the post-spaghetti western (and post John Wayne horse opera) period. Granger *HATED* working on the show.

[@Cool2BCeltic]

A great theme and one of the indications that the Americans acknowledged that the Italians were beating them at their own game.

[@michaeleverson4343]

I religiously watched "The Virginian" every week back in the early 60's. The original theme was by Percy Faith as I recall and the Stewart Granger role was played by Lee J Cobb. One of the better tv westerns,,,that and "Rawhide" of course.

[@dixiemay1649]

I never could stand Lee Majors.

[@jeffreyt.steptoe5306]

Funny(LOL).

the Virginian encourage this Bronx guy to go west and be the good guy with all the bad guys around. In the end the bad guys won and I lost
