Charles Chilton (who died last week at the age of 95) is of course best known for the radio serials Journey Into Space which ran from 1953 to 1958.  Before this (from 1949 to 1953) he did 6 series of "Riders Of The Range" set in the old wild west.  He returned to a wild west theme with Blood On The Prairie in 1963.  Unfortunately whoever recorded this off air (in wonderful quality I might add) went and recorded over the first half of the episode, but this at least gives us a little taster of one of Chilton's other works.

  1. Thanks for this = such a shame about the over-recording of the only found episode.
