That's an amazing story! Do you have any other stories about his time at Warner Bros.?

I knew Hoyt for decades, since I was just a kid, toured the country and sang backup vocals with him in L.A. and on the road, and sang on a couple of his albums... and yet I never realized he'd done any episodes of Bonanza or had sung with Pernell Roberts. Hoyt was quite an interesting man with a stupendous voice and singing style, tremendous ability as a songwriter, and many demons to wrestle. Sadly, he never took good care of his health and left us too soon. RIP, big bro.

We'll never hear these men sing again. The world has lost such great talent.

This episode is always a sad episode for me. Because this was the last episode that focused on Adam and was really the last episode of Bonanza that Pernell Roberts was in. What a fantastic song. Absolutely love it.

I'm 17. I will never have the pleasure of meeting any of these greats and I lose friends on the daily because I love things like this. R.i.p pernell you had the voice of an angel

People are extremely salty when they hear you listen to some old songs. You'd think in a time where morals have been thrown out the window, they wouldn't care what you listen to. I lost my fair share of folks because they found out I listened to old music. I'd say it tells you what they're up to.

I named my guitar “Pernell” after him. Next one I get will be named “Hoyt”!

This is one of my favorite episodes. It was the last full episode Pernell Roberts did. The songs were good, and the duets were memorable. I have the DVD for this episode.

Oh yes Pernell Roberts was so incredibly gifted and even more under appreciated in his acting and his magnificent voice - singing and speaking and his smile those eyes that melt the heart I encourage anyone who hasn't not just to watch the episodes he was in but particularly the ones he sings like The Wooing of Abigail Jones-he could woo me anytime 😍

Thanks for this great singer my love Pernell Roberts thanks for all this viveo i will always love you my dear pernell roberts

I had the Pleasure meeting Hoyt Axton in person in the late 80's and He told me the doing the Bonanza Show was his first acting Role, he had gone to acting school in New York, and they flew him out to California for the Western T.V show. He invited me to come out to his Ranch in Colorado, but sadly I never got around doing it. Rest in Peace! Mr. Axton

Why songs like this aint in on the Billboard charts and radio is beyond me. I need to find me some Hoyt Axton albums playing solo without the orchestra playing behind him. Sounds so much better with just him and guitar, and Pernell Roberts singing harmony.

This man had a beautiful voice. Could listen to him all day, sang some beautiful songs. Very mellow voice. Sadly another great singer whose passed on

HOYT AXTON IS ABSOLUTE PROOF OF GOD SHOWING OFF !!! REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND !!!

Hoyt Axton was in a league of his own. Distinct voice and a great songwriter and always a treat to watch on screen.

Love the bit where Pern ell realises he singing about him,l love his smile.

Hoyt Axton was my Dad's cousin. Later he wrote " Joy to the World" & "The Pusher". My Grandad's sister wrote Heartbreak Hotel 💔 Mae Boren Axton. Hoyt is usually noticed more for his role in Smokey, Black Stallion and Gremlins 💙🎶🎵💙

Hoyt Axton... most amazing voice!

This made such an impression on me on a Sunday afternoon so long ago.

“Great big man with a black hat on..” I do believe that made Adam a bit giddy.

Hoyt axton just seemed like he was a really nice guy. rip

I read an article about Pernell and he said he never liked being on Bonanza.

Biggest crush on Pernell Roberts.

Hoyt Axton was handsome when she was young..

Wow I stumbled on a memory from the past come to life tonight . Love Pernell and Hoyt . Two great folk musicians

4:16 *Hoyt* :Well every road I see, leads away from me. There's not a single one that leads me home.. All the roads keep sayin ," friend, come see what's round the bend.." So is it any wonder that I roam?.. All the places I have been , keep ah-callin me back again.. How down in the pines. I hear the cold wind blow.. My heart keeps tellin me ... footloose and fancy-free, but the road goes by and calls me as it goes.. *Adam* : Well maybe somewhere there's a someone waitin there with a smile , And maybe there'll be someplace I can stop and rest a while .. Cause maybe you weren't mean to be just a rollin stone. And there's a road to travel on that leads you back to home .. *Adam & Hoyt* : Oh but I'll keep travelin on, keep ah-lookin at the dawn. Till I can lay this lonesome body down.. and when that day has come, I never more will roam. And every road I see will lead me home... Well , when that day has come , I never more will roam.. and every road I see will lead me home. RIP Roberts and Hoyt

Jim Morrison sings a version of the first song here at the beginning of 'Runnin' Blue,' originally as a tribute to Otis Redding, who died shortly before recording. The song is (AFAIK) first attributed to the blue singer Lead Belly - the song is called "Poor Howard."

my family always watched Bonanza but I sure do not remember Pernell Roberts singing. He is actually quite good.

I love how Hoyt acts in the duet every road I see will lead me home. As Pernell sings he listens and patiently waits to imply Oh no I'm serious I will ramble anyway.

love their voices! specially "endless road"

Hello fellow Hoyt fans. I agree with pretty much all your comments here, and just wanted to let you know that there ARE those of us still carrying the torch. There is very good music being made, always has been, it's just not typically broadcast on the airwaves any more. You have to do some digging, but it's there. I find it a crying shame that most people don't even know the name "Hoyt Axton" these days, he should by all rights be a legend. I describe him as one of America's best (possibly THE best) virtually unknown singer songwriters. From Voodoo Blues to Della and the Dealer, Joy to the World to the Pusher, Gypsy Moth to Boney Fingers, Daddy walked in Darkness to Never been to Spain, all amazing songs sung by an amazing voice. My personal favorite is Wild Bull Rider. I front a band in Asheville, NC, the Hazy 88's, we do all sorts of music, most RnB or Rock n Roll based, and some originals, and plan to work up a set of Hoyt's music. I really look forward to performing some of his works, paying homage where due, and keeping Hoyt's name alive. Cheers!

"Adam" sang in several episodes of Bonaza. I can't swear it was always Pernell Roberts singing, but I assume it was.

What a musical episode this must have been with 6:15 of pickin' and singin' just from these clips!

watched Hoyt many times at cosmos seal beach 1966 all ways friendly ..great talent

Hoyt also guest starred on Dukes Of Hazzard, Murder She Wrote, and Sam McKinney as little Sam's Dad on Different Strokes, I dream Of Jeannie, and WKRP in Cincinnati, and other shows. I would often confused him with other country singers.
