In Popular Culture
The song Doolin Dalton, a hit for the Eagles, was inspired by the gang. Furthermore, Desperado, the album on which the song Doolin Dalton appears, is considered a 'concept album' inspired by the antics of the various players from this era including a song called 'Bittercreek'; a passing lyrical reference to a barmaid named 'Flo'; and of course the iconic photo on the back cover of said album which features the members of the band lying face up, hands tied and appearing to be dead, much like the infamous historical picture of the Dalton Brothers 'lying dead in Coffeyville'.

Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“The popular colleges of the United States are turning out more educated people with less originality and fewer geniuses than any other country.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
“The fact remains that the human being in early childhood learns to consider one or the other aspect of bodily function as evil, shameful, or unsafe. There is not a culture which does not use a combination of these devils to develop, by way of counterpoint, its own style of faith, pride, certainty, and initiative.”
—Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)
