Jimmy Wakely and his trio play and sing the title song to the Sunshine Girls in this western 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.
There isn't much variation to this, with constant repetitions of the title, but there's plenty of ornamentation in the music.... and the Sunshine Girls.
