A traveling musician tries to prevent a rancher from losing his property to a swindler.

This DVD of the 1938 Western, Action, Adventure, Musical Gene Austin movie Songs and Saddles has been digitally re-mastered to maintain the original retro/classic scratched look and feel of the original movie that was so common at the time of its creation.

Director: Harry L. Fraser
Writer: Arthur A. Brooks, Harry L. Fraser
Stars: Gene Austin, Lynne Berkeley, Henry Roquemore

Standard oater with a plot line of a local schemer and his henchmen trying to beat an old rancher out of his unknown-to-him valuable property, which sets where a new highway is going to be built. Well, maybe not so standard, since it was usually a railroad that was planned.

The producers (Max and Arthur Alexander) and Associate Producer (their cousin Alfred Stern) didn't make this on a budget that allowed for rental of ties, tracks and locomotives, so opted for highway construction and having to only rent a Caterpillar tractor for the construction scene.

The fictional Gene Austin (played by the real Gene Austin) is the fictional foster son of a fictional rancher and comes to the fictional Sage City to lend a hand against the baddies. Austin (aided by Coco & Candy, whose character names aren't Coco and Candy in the film)plays the piano and sings five songs he wrote---"Song of the Saddle"; "I'm Coming Home"; "I Fell Down and Broke My Heart (in Two)"; "Why Can't I Be Your Sweetheart, Tonight" and "The Man From Texas"

The trouble comes when Austin takes to the saddle.
