## Trivia

* This is the first video to be released on home video in widescreen (though previous videos had been filmed and aired on TV in widescreen). However, the US DVD presents the feature in 4:3 Letterbox form. This was likely done to also accommodate full-screen TV's, which were still fairly popular at the time.
* This video was named after a line from Hot Potato
* The name of the video is a pun on the movie genre "Spaghetti Western".
* During the prologue of "Follow The Bird", a string is seen on the bird as it flies away.
* This is the last video to be directed by Nicholas Bufalo.
* This is the first main video made after 1997 (not counting spin-off videos) never to be released in the UK in any version.
	+ As a result, the Behind the Scenes of Cold Spaghetti Western feature included on the Top of the Tots DVD was replaced by 2 episodes of Lights, Camera, Action, Wiggles!
	+ The only two videos after this not to be released in the UK (until Ukulele Baby!, which has so far been the last) were Sailing Around the World and Wiggledancing! Live In The U.S.A., the latter of which is exclusive to North America.
* In this video, Anthony and Greg got new haircuts.
* In the end credits, the Wiggly Orchestra is credited in the Yamaha Instruments credit, despite not appearing.
* Foodman makes his first appearance since Toot Toot! However, he is now played by Paul Paddick.
* Songs from this video never appeared in a TV Series (not counting We're The Cowboys, which appears in Wiggly Animation).
* The working title for this video was "Wiggly Western".
* This is the second time the Wiggles wore their cowboy outfits. The first time was in Top of the Tots, during Cowboys and Cowgirls
* In the prologue of "Listen To The Drummer Playing", The Wiggles are seen in their cowboy outfits. Whereas in the song, they are seen in their regular outfits.
* This video was released in Australia after Steve Blau died.
* This is the second and last Wiggles Australian VHS to come in a yellow case after The Wiggly Big Show.
* The screener VHS has no letterbox format feature presentation at the beginning and no previews at the end whatsoever.
* The white duck costume returns since it was used in Five Little Ducks in Wiggle Time!
* Listen To The Drummer Playing was the only song in this video where The Wiggles wore the outfits they usally wear in their concerts, videos, album photos, and TV Series. Also in this song, Tony Henry plays the stunt drummer of Captain Feathersword during the shots of The Wiggles.
* On the Australian VHS, the aspect ratio was cropped to 14:9.
* This is the fourth video where Jeff didn't play the Red Starry Keyboard. The first was Yule Be Wiggling, the second was Wiggly Safari and the third was Wiggle Bay.
* Like Top of the Tots, Ben Murray was absent in this video because he was changing his hair color to black, however, he was seen in A Wiggly Postcard from Asia which is one of the special features on the DVD.
* During the prologue of El Pato, If you listen closely there was unreleased instrumental music, it's unknown if it was the Taiwan instrumental version of A Frog Went A Walking or Five Little Ducks, but it is possible either one was heard.

### Goofs

* The DVD listed 4:3 as the aspect ratio, but it was actually 16:9.
* Some of the times when Anthony's voice is heard, his mouth is not moving.
