Remade in 1935 as "Cyclone Ranger" and in 1941 as "Gaucho's of El Dorado": The Sonora Kid, "Black" Jack and Tony Andrews, in an attempt to break away from the gang led by "Nevada" Smith, encounter a sheriff's posse, and while the three make an escape Tony is mortally wounded. Sonora and Jack ride to the Andrews ranch to notify his mother but the blind Mrs. Andrews mistakes Sonora for her son, whom she hadn't heard from in many years. In an attempt to soften the blow and buy some time, Sonora goes along with the ruse. But Smith and the gang show up and threaten to blow the whistle unless Sonora helps them rustle the old lady's herd. In a film that has musicians Jack Kirk and Chuck Baldra in the cast,the only song---"My Rocky Mountain Home---is performed by non-musicians Hoxie, Todd and Fix.
