Great Gift.......2007-01-09
Just One Great Time!.......2006-02-27
Imagine you are someone struggling to eke out a living in the midst of the Great Depression. So you got a couple of bucks and try for a little diversion in a dusty roadhouse in the southern middle of the country. To your surprise and delight you are entertained by a largish group of really good musicians playing an unfamiliar mix of big band, country and blues.
Some of the earliest amplified music and nice pedal steel guitar work can be heard in this collection. A sign of the times of the music can be glimpsed in lyrics like: "Ain't got no blues, got chickens out in my yard..."
I like that this collection is in mono, and that the sound quality doesn't come close to current standards. It's damn fine music, presented as it was at the time. Take a chance.
Ten years in the evolution of western swing . . ........2005-01-03
The swing-band sound predominates starting with the 1938 recordings ("Whoa Baby," track 8) at a time when the band grew to 18 members. There follow some great standards, "Corrine, Corrina" (1940), "Take Me Back to Tulsa" (1941), "You're From Texas" (1942), and "Stay a Little Longer" (1945). Among the songs are vocals by young Tommy Duncan (born 1911) and younger Leon McAuliffe (born 1917), whose clear, mellow voices ring bright and sweetly smooth. Many songs are also graced by the sound of McAuliffe's wonderful steel guitar.
A short booklet with this CD recounts the career of Bob Wills and his band. For each of the 25 tracks, the notes identify the location and date of recording (tracks 1-15 in Texas; tracks 16-25 in Hollywood). With 70 minutes of music, this CD is a great value.
Columbia hang your head in Shame.......2003-12-12
Of course you can go upscale and get the Bear Family Box and other compilations.
This CD has some great stuff that isn't on the anthology and some of the other collections as well as stuff that isn't. Most of the good stuff on this record is from the pre-WWII band.
During the war the Playboys went through a lot of changes. Tommy Duncan joined the navy the day after war started. Wills himself was drafted. Wills showed up for the Army with his chauffer, his Cadillac limousine, and fretted about being woken up before 9 a.m. or doing anything that would roughen his fiddle playing hands! Wills was allowed to quit the army--something almost no one else was allowed to do during WWII--after he agreed to raise a lot of money for War bonds. Leon McAuliffe who had learned to fly working for Wills who had his own plane to fly the Playboys around in, became a flight instructor for the military. Etc. Etc.
During the War itself Wills fronted the largest and according to those who heard it--it was never recorded due to the various recordinjg bands and vinyl shortages during the war--most beautiful big band aggregation he ever had. However, the band tended to shift to a group dominated by fiddles, and a trio with steel guitar, guitars, and tiny moore and later Johnny Gimble's electric mandolin with only one horn.
This is the band you hear on the Tiffany transcriptioons which were all made in 1946 and 1947.
I would also not dismiss the MGM years that followed the Columbia contract from the late 1940s into the mid 1950s. MGM has come out with a complete collection of Wills in those years, entitled The Boot Hill Drag, which has some of the hottest swingingest music ever made. And the stuff Wills recorded in the very late 1950s and early 1960s for Liberty with the return of Tommy Duncan and Joe Holley were as good as anything recorded in the 1930s or 1940s though it had a cleaner, jazzier, sound and even featured Vicki Carr singing backup on some numbers. If you like fiddle choirs, you will like some of the Liberty Tunes where Wills rounded out his own fiddle sections with a violist out of the Lawrence Welch Orchestra!
To be sure, if you don't have any Bob Wills Music this is as good as any set to start with. The music is good enough for you to chase after it. This is Wills from 36 to 46 basically. Then you just get all the rest. The man kept making music until 1973. You really need it all!
