As Pee Wee Herman said, “he lived it." I bought two of his auobiographies, “Tall, Dark and Gruesome", one for my Dad and one for me.

Lee had no problem channeling something of the Macabre. From witnessing a guillotine execution in France in the presence of a euphoric cheering crowd at the age of 17, to serving as an intelligence officer in WW2, he had plenty of real life experience to draw on for imbuing his dark and serious characters with the visceral and real. R.I.P. Sir Christopher Frank Carandini Lee, descendant of Charlemagne, 6'5" larger than life talent and legend in your own time.

Sir Christopher Lee really wanted to be in a movie with Clint Eastwood, they both had very awesome accolades and life stories. Ik I am six years late to the reply but Sir Christopher Lee really admired Clint Eastwood and I wander if he ever inspired him or if Sir Christopher Lee was inspired by cowboys he met back in the day when he was younger. guess I'll never know. Anyways cheers this is an awesome gem of a song.

Him and the highwaymen would have been legendary

An old wizard went riding out one dark and windy day Upon a ridge he smoked as he went along his way When all at once a mighty herd of fellbeasts he saw A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw Their eyes were still on fire and their fangs were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry Yippie yi ooh Yippie yi yay Ringwraiths in the sky Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their faces veiled in mist He's riding hard to catch that ring, but he ain't caught it yet 'Cause they've got to ride forever out from Minas Morgul's gate On horses snorting shadow As they ride on hear their cry... As the riders loped on by him, Strider heard one call his name: If you want to save the West from hell a-riding in Mordor, Then ranger, change your ways today or with us you will ride Trying to catch the One Ring, across all Middle-Earth Yippie yi ooh Yippie yi yay Ghostriders in the sky Ash nazg gimbatul...

Christopher Lee was more of a bass-baritone. Remember that his voice was a bit lighter and higher when he was young and got so low only in his older years. A true bass has a bass voice since his teenage years. Christopher kinda turned into a bass, but wasn't one from the start.

Ride on, Sir Christopher!

An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows, he saw Plowed through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath you could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry Yipie I oh, yipie I ay, ghost riders in the sky Their face is gaunt, their eyes were blurred Their shirts all soaked with sweat He's ridin' hard to catch that herd but he 'ain't caught 'em yet 'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky On horses snorting fire as they ride on, hear them cry As the riders leaned on by him, he heard one call his name If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride Tryin' to catch the devil herd across these endless skies Yipie I oh, yipie I ay, Ghost riders in the sky Ghost riders in the sky Ghost riders in the sky
