[Rex Koury was writer of the "Gunsmoke" radio/TV theme; His collaborators are only listed in the ASCAP Performance Index of 1978, but are not credited in the later versions of the ASCAP repertoire database. Since Andrews and Yageman were producers of the series, their portion of royalties may have been shared for a period of time as Koury may have written it originally as a "work for hire". But the copyright has now apparently now reverted to Koury in full.] Composers: music by Rex Koury (ASCAP), Ralph H.
