In the late 1930s both film studios and record companies were becoming aware of the growing Latin audience in the United States. Singing cowboy star Gene Autry was one of the first to make films that appealed to this ever-growing audience, with Latin themes in his films and music. In addition to his movies that bore the titles of songs like “Mexicali Rose,” “South of the Border,” and “Rancho Grande,” Gene performed songs of old Mexico on his popular national weekly radio program. This first-ever collection of Spanish songs by Gene Autry is taken from his popular musical westerns and his weekly Gene Autry Melody Ranch radio show. Track List: 1.
