Music Index

Almost every episode of This Gun in My Hand has the same opening and closing music from two public domain films: The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950) for the opening and Killer Bait (1949) for the closing. Falk's musical sting after saying his catchphrase is a burst of horns from the same opening music from The Sun Sets at Dawn. Below are other songs used in the series. The number after the hyphen is the episode it appears in. All music is either public domain, parody, original, or used under Creative Commons licenses. For more details, see show notes and credits for individual episodes.
