Description by OLDIES.com:
Tex Ritter's film debut!
Lawman Tex Ritter is dispatched to round up a gang of thieves whose specialty is cheating miners out of their claims. Going undercover as a dangerous fugitive, Tex joins up with Slash Evans, the brains behind the scam, and quickly learns the nature of his enterprise - loaning the operators money to stay afloat, then killing them to gain legal possession of their property. As an untested member of the gang, Tex is assigned to murder the next victim, and with his only option being to kill or be killed, Tex must pull off some impressive maneuvering to stay alive.
Song Of the Gringo marks the first appearance of Tex Ritter as leading man. Ritter would receive top billing, for a number of years, propelled by his authentic western singing. His popularity rivaled even that of top cowboy crooner Gene Autry.
