Yesterday In Dino-history: March 18, 1960

Hey pallies, likes we gotta 'fess up that we ain't been very good on reportin' many important dates in Dino-history likes the openin' dates for our most beloved Dino's big screen epics, or the dates of the releases of our Dino's al-b-ums, or the dates when our Dino recorded a particular croon,  Likes I guess if we did, we wouldn't have the time to report much else.

But likes last year 'bout this time we learned from a pallie tagged  Ron Smith over at his blog,"Eight Days A Week -Ron Smith's Oldies Calendar" that it was on this very date, March 18, in the year of our Dino 1960 that perhaps our Dino's greatest role on the silver screen premiered....our Dino as the Dude in that classic of classic western "Rio Bravo."  Indeed, we believe that this is the fabulous flick that our Dino oughta been nominated and won the Oscar for Best Actor.

Well, likes when we learned this Dino-detail, likes we just couldn't let this date pass ilovedinomartin by and so each and every Dino-year we will do our best to have a little blog post to celebrate our great man with some great moments from "Rio Bravo."  Below are two youtube vid clips accentin' our Dino's awesome actin' as the Dude 'long with a couple of vid clips of our Dino croonin' the title tune "Rio Bravo" and, of course, our Dino and company singin' "My Rifle, My Pony, and Me."

Likes over the course of time, ilovedinomartin has shared many many marvelous reviews of "Rio Bravo, and if you woulda likes to checks 'em out, simply puts "Rio Bravo" in the search engine at the top of the blog page to do so.  We sez our thanks to Mr. Ron Smith for makin' us aware of this intensely important date in the life and times of our one and only Dino.  To check the info out in it's original source, likes simply clicks on the tag of this here Dino-message.
