Well, Trigger is Roy's best friend. It's the easiest leap to have him do that here, yet it's so powerful and so unexpected. What's great is that you buy it, you absolutely buy it, and I don't know that I really would buy it from anybody else but Roy and Trigger." --- "The Golden Stallion" is in Trucolor which this time adds to the overall beauty and highlights the golden in the title --- Even non-Roy Rogers fans should enjoy this cinematic gem --- some wonderful tunes, TIME FOR A SONG -- RIDIN MY GOLDEN STALLION -- DOWN MEXICO WAY -- CRIPPLE CREEK (SQUARE DANCE) -- WHEN NIGHT FALLS ON THE PRAIRIE.
