(Festus from Gunsmoke could SING!) "Breathless Shep Fields Ken Curtis Vocal"

(Festus from Gunsmoke could SING!) "Breathless Shep Fields Ken Curtis Vocal":

"Since the great James Arness died, I thought some fun trivia was in order.

Ken Curtis (Festus) was actually a great singer, who was hired by Tommy Dorsey to replace Frank Sinatra. But when Sinatra didn't leave, Curtis' contract was sold to Big Band leader Shep Fields.

Festus could SING!"
