Songs of Texas - Western Musical Collection - Collectors Mine

s/w
By the time Song Of Texas was made in 1943, Roy Rogers was a major Western star and the studios recognized this with larger budgets to provide more dramatic photography and better production. This particular movie also emphasises Rogers' engaging personality, highlightning his central role above the usual shooting and riding scenes. There are comedy interludes, a sequence of fiesta dancing, and 8 familiar songs with Rogers and The Sons Of The Pioneers plus 2 standards Moonlight And Roses and Mexicali Rose. A different kind of Western from those previously established by convention, the movie also stars future wife Dale Evans.
