Country Western
Tex Williams sings the title song, while Spade Cooley's band accompany him in this soundie.
Soundies were short films, about three minutes in length. The were meant to be played on a machine called a Mills Panoram, a video jukebox that was typically to be found in bars, lounges, and similar venues. You put a dime in and got a performance from the ten on the machine. The movies would be changed weekly, and from 1940 through 1946, Mills and other companies produced more than two thousand soundies.
It's definitely more country than western swing in this short. Cooley keeps a tight smile on his face constantly, which puts me off a bit.
