Bob Steele on an early “Voice of Hollywood” talkie short. (Photo thanks to Leonard Maltin.) By the way, Bob Steele sings in six B-Westerns, including his first three talkies. Here’s the list: “Near the Rainbow’s End” (‘30 Tiffany), Bob and Perry Murdock sing “Ragtime Cowboy Joe” and another song. (Note: this is five years before Gene Autry became “the” singing cowboy.) “Oklahoma Cyclone” (‘30 Tiffany) Bob sings several songs. “Land of Missing Men” (‘30 Tiffany) Bob sings “Prairie’s End” twice. “Ridin’ Fool“ (‘31 Tiffany) Bob sings “I Fell in Love With You, Can’t You Fall in Love With Me?” “Gallant Fool” (‘33 Monogram) Bob sings “The Girl That I Love”. “Trailing North” (‘33 Monogram) Bob sings “I’m Headin’ Home”.
