Before we stray too far from this Taps/Il Silencio business, can someone
please tell me the name of the number that they played in "Rio Bravo"?

I remember it was being played while John Wayne, Dean Martin, Walter Brennan
& Rick Nelson were holed up in the jailhouse and Dino was telling the others
that it's the same thing that Santa Anna's troops played for the benefit of
those at the Alamo.

I believe it had a meaning similar to "last call to surrender" or at least
that's the best way I can describe it.

This is not a test.........I really do not know it's title and would like to
so I can see if I can find a recording of it.

Thanx
HC
