Notes:
This compilation album, featuring film music composed by Hans Salter, contains music from ten different western films. Fortunately, one of those films is the 1942 John Wayne – Marlene Dietrich film, The Spoilers. I say fortunate because a soundtrack from The Spoilers has never been released, despite the simple fact that the music from that film is actually very good. Now for the bad news – there is only one piece from The Spoilers on this album (track 4). But as the saying goes, one is better than none, and the rest of the album is enjoyable as well.
