This fistful of friendly-like words & good feelin's go out to the following buncha good-natured outlaws & ruffians:

Nate "Quickdraw" Horsfall (artwork); Grant "Cowhand" Henry (mastering); Kirk "Doggone" Moore (YouTube teaser); Sam "Shark Wrangler" Mulligan (release party host); my lovely lady, Erin "Chip Ma'am" Hood (thanks for supporting me when I suddenly dove back into this one whole hog ♥); my Dad and my Grandpas for introducing me to the wonderful films and soundtracks that ultimately inspired this comp; Ennio Morricone for being such a badass composer; Disasterpeace & Derris-Kharlan as the original wild west chiptune action duo (music.disasterpeace.com/album/west); our posse of chipfriendly radio cohorts (twitch.tv/heyscram, geekbeatradio.com, kngi.org); all of the fantabulous ChipWIN Patrons, Gerald Harris' wondrous self in particular; all 18 compilation artists for going *ALL IN* on this Wild West comp (still a little happily surprised by how enthusiastically y'all rode with this rather unique theme! 🐎); each and every hot diggity damned one of you who still call yourselves ChipWINners! Regardless of how y'all choose to contribute, it's very much appreciated and I reckon it always will be. As always, let's keep on keepin' on ridin' onward into the horizon! Yeehaw!

Track Name: Professor Shyguy - Without a Plan: - - Lyrics - -

Underneath all the hours that I leave
Until there's nothing left, no room for me to breathe

It's so hard to fight when it all keeps moving on
If I went back to set it straight would it all be gone

There are so many enemies behind the rising sun
but the trail that's in front of me is clear enough to run

No my doubt can plant a seed
That grows in all the light that I can't see
Now without a plan to read
I have to plan around what I can't see

Every town where I lay my head down
I'm staring at the walls as if they'll keep me from being found

Will they forget, or will their will grow
Stronger than I'll ever know
Leaving me nowhere to go

Sooner or later I'll have to lose control
Track Name: Jakk & Dya - The Drifter: - - Lyrics - -

[Verse 1]
Long ago, a child had lost their home.
To the greed of a man, who set fire to their land.
So they roamed, across the cold sands, alone.
But time had passed, and now the child has grown.

With their father’s gun at their side,
Revenge is the only thing on their mind!

[Verse 2]
Far away, a town lies in wait
Protecting the Man, who laid waste to their lands.
The day had came. The Child had made their way.
They had six shots, but they saved one for the Man.

High Noon rose on the town!
Hide your kids, because it's time for a Showdown!

[Bridge]
They saved a bullet in the chamber, just for you.
They saved a bullet in the chamber, just for you.
They saved a bullet in the chamber, just for you.
They saved a bullet in the chamber, JUST FOR YOU!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
The dust had cleared, all the townsfolk had cheered.
The Child still stands, and the Man had laid there dead.
The town now safe, the Child had no time to waste.
She grabbed a horse and rode off into the sun

THE DRIFTER!
