Not many realize it anymore, but Ken was once the lead singer for the Sons of the Pioneers, I think he replaced some fella named Leonard something or other when he moved on solo.  ;D Also he acted in a couple of John Wayne westerns, the Searchers comes to mind. A good man who is missed.

Here's a favorite scene of mine from Rio Grande, with Ken Curtis (and The Sons of the Pioneers) singing "I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen" to a radiant Maureen O'Hara.

The wind is kicking up the dust here too, which is odd since I'm inside.  Maybe it's my allergies.  That must be it (sniff, sniff).
