Hey Pretty Mama

Western Ranch Music  ~   Since 1952 ~ 

Esther Casteel started writing songs and composing music circa 1930. She designed her Western Ranch Music Record Label, around 1950 and obtained her recording license in 1952. Some Bands and Artists under her label and/or who performed her songs from the 1950’s to 1995, were Cecil Ziebart and The Polka Pals, Ked Killen and His Western All Stars, Lee Felts and The Feltons, John York, Virge Brown and The Saddle Mates, Gordon Harris and Western Four, and Cowboy Dallas Turner. The Pell Brothers performed “Big Earl” under the Western Ranch Music Record Label and the Elliot Brothers Ork, recorded under  the label at the same time. Tex Ritter performed  "Hey Pretty Mama” written by Esther Casteel.   

Around 1952 and into the late 1950’s, Esther managed three additional recording bands; The Westernairs, Old Westerners and Rhythumaires. Esther recorded previously under White Label in New Mexico and Colorado, circa 1940-51. The Sun Valley Boys were one of her earlier recording bands when she lived in New Mexico. In the early 50’s she had her own band called Cimmeron Sun Valley Boys. At one point in time, there were thirteen bands and seven singers contracted to Esther Casteel, including Canadian groups.  

By 2006 Esther Casteel, was a 47-year member of The National Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 1973 Esther Casteel, was voted to become one of 21 Grammy Governors to serve from 1973-1974 out of the San Francisco, Ca., Chapter. The only woman at that time. Something to be proud of in that day and time. She was a voting member of NARAS, Los Angeles, Ca., Chapter for 38 years. She also became an ASCAP, NY member. 

Releases of vinyl records and reissues of vinyl 45's, Collector Mono LP's and Cassettes were produced with Esther's works as late as 1995. Esther Casteel was an Author/Composer and Recording Pioneer of circa 1940’s-50's Country, Western, Blues, Americana and Polka music; keeping that unique clean crisp sound which carried over into her 1960’s-70's Country and Western  Blues, Folk, Americana & Rockabilly Retro. These unique works continue to be available under her original WRM label and more are returning to the market due to demand from collectors and fans.

The May 27, 1967 issue of Billboard, International News, Toronto, Canada, states "The Western Ranch Label in the U.S. has released it's second single by Cecil Ziebart and The Polka Pals old time and Western music group from Medicine Hat, Alta. Their "Rose of Cherokee" backed with "Be Sure Dear" is making charts in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, and negotiations are under way for Canadian distribution."

Esther received an award/trophy for her "Rose of Cherokee" Song. She was named Best Country and Western Music Writer and was listed in Who's Who in Country Music. Rose of Cherokee was the first song ever 'written and composed' solely by Esther in 1930. Rose of Cherokee earned a gold label by running 16 weeks as a top of the charts Musical Hit in 1967-68.  Not long after the “Rose of Cherokee” Hit  “Hey Pretty Mama” climbed the charts circa 1968-69 to earn Author Esther Casteel, and shared Composer Ked Killen, a Red Hot Country/Rock Pop Hit.   

Esther wrote and recorded over 200 songs starting circa 1930 and by the year 1995. Most were recorded on vinyl records.  After that, songs were available on Cassette. Many of WRM Oldie Pops are now digitally remastered to radio submission quality and available as physical CD's and as digital downloads. 

Information and historical events were gathered from physical news and articles collected over the many years by WRM, and/or, information is WRM history, and/or, information was shared by and/or, published previously for/with/by, permission of WRM  Record Label.
