Following the mysterious death of his father, young Jimmy (Jimmie Shrum) inherits the family ranch. But when his shifty uncle tries to steal it from him, the boy turns to singing cowboys (and real-life brother) Cal Shrum and His Rhythm Rangers for help. If a six-shooter won't stop a black hat in his tracks...maybe a well-sung tune will! "Trouble at Melody Mesa" co-stars Brad King, Lorraine Mickie. Then, in "Lightning Bill," after the owner of a ranch is threatened by a gang of hot-shot outlaws, one of his workers decides to take matters into his own hands and nab the nasty desperadoes. Alma Rayford and Nelson McDowell join Buffalo Bill, Jr. (Jay Wilsey) in this entertaining oater (noted for its odd day-and-night continuity issues and a famously misspelled title card). 107 min. total. Standard; Soundtrack: English.
