The music for the movie, The Grey Fox more than complimented the
movie but propelled the story and helped create a delightful tapestry to let the
story unfold. It is wonderful movie of an old stagecoach robber who is released
from prison and starts to rob trains. The music allowed the Chieftains to gain a
Genie award, the Canadian equivalent to the Oscars, for their work. I
highly recommend the movie if you should have the chance to watch it.
