Re: Jewish cowboy music

Looking through my Mickey Katz albums (LPs) I find

Borscht Riders in the Sky
    originally released on "Mickey Katz with his Orchestra"
    rereleased as "The Very Best of Mickey Katz"

and

I'm An Old Cowhand
    originally released on "Comin' 'Round the Katzkills"
    rereleased as "Mickey Katz Greatest Hits"

Are we getting far from "cowboy songs"?
