Silver Jubilee is a compilation recording released by the Western band Riders in the Sky in 2003.

Riders in the Sky brought their 25th anniversary year to a grand finale with Silver Jubilee, a 2-CD set of new recordings of their best-loved songs — along with a bonus live mini-concert.

Longtime favorites "Compadres In The Old Sierra Madres," "Here Comes The Santa Fe," "The Biscuit Blues" and "That's How The Yodel Was Born" are among the standouts on Silver Jubilee. Often requested tunes including "The Line Rider," "Sidekick Heaven," and "La Malaguena" are included, as well as a medley from their Riders Radio Theater program. Silver Jubilee also contains a 24-page booklet complete with extensive notes, archival photos and a special Riders timeline.
