Storm Over The Rangeland (The Ballad of Kit Laney) is one of my all-time favorites. Perhaps because of my closeness to this event, but most likely because of the writing skills and great performance by Michael Martin Murphey. Few have this kind of writing skill and none have shown the personal and commercial fortitude of Mr. Murphey in telling it like it is.
I dedicate this video, though, to one who doesn't show up in the video but whom I know played a vital part in this event and the recording of this song: My dear departed friend Erik Ness.
The tune is on Murphey's CD Heartland Cowboy.
