Artist's Description
Would you believe Duke Wayne as a singing cowboy?
In this Lone Star quickie he was undercover agent 'Singin' Sandy Saunders "the most notorious gunman since Billy the Kid."
Duke couldn't sing so he mouthed the words while holding a guitar. A melodic baritone voice was dubbed in, not at all matching his.
When fans asked him to sing at personal appearances he declined later saying that he felt like "a goddam pansy."
Al St. John (1893-1963) was in this cast. He started out in films with Roscoe Arbuckle (1887-1933) and Buster Keaton (1895-1966).
(St. John ended his career as a comic foil to 'Lash' LaRue.)
"Riders" was the first of 15 films to team Duke and George Hayes.
