| | Bob Wills Anthology (1935-1973) CD Bob Wills Discography of CDs
Rhino's double-disc Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys retrospective provides an invaluable service in collecting material from every phase of the group's career. From 1935's "Maiden's Prayer" to 1973's "What Makes Bob Holler," ANTHOLOGY follows ... Full DescriptionWills's journey through a flurry of different labels, vocalists, and band members, collecting along the way some of the most exuberant, accomplished Western Swing ever put to tape. Wills's mark on the genre is indelible; he not only helped make country danceable, he also combined it with soulful blues, folk idioms, boogie-woogie, and virtuoso jazz flourishes.
Each disc of ANTHOLOGY features 16 tracks cherry-picked to represent one of the band's many stylistic dimensions--ranging from honky tonk ("Time Changes Everything") to jump blues ("Big Beaver") to comic songs ("Roly Poly"). The original versions of Wills's biggest hits, including "New San Antonio Rose," the infectiously singable "Take Me Back to Tulsa," and "Bubbles in My Beer" (featuring the smooth croon of beloved Playboys vocalist Tommy Duncan), are here. In its breadth, arrangement, and quality, this is a definitive Bob Wills overview and--consequently--a slice of the best Western swing in the world.

A lovingly remastered and beautifully packaged 34-track compilation, 1997's LOOK WHAT THOUGHTS WILL DO is possibly the finest of the many Lefty Frizzell greatest hits packages. In large part, this is due to the excellent track selection and sequencing, ranging from early '50s hits like "I Love You a Thousand Ways" and the remarkable "If You've Got the Money, I've Got the Time" to tracks recorded shortly before ...
| | Screaming End: The Best Of Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps CD (1997)
Anthology (1935-1973) CD music
$14.99 
THE SCREAMING END is an all but definitive Gene Vincent compilation, cannily programmed with his most real gone (as they used to say) performances. This is rockabilly at its wildest and (paradoxically) most carefully crafted thanks, in no small part, to the Bluecaps. They were arguably the fiercest rock band of their day.
There are two main reasons for the band's precision and power. One is a virtuoso guitarist in the justifiably legendary Cliff Gallup (he of the breathless stream of notes on "Race With the Devil"). The other is a 15 year ...

What sets him apart is the depth inherent in his compositions, and his knack for an irresistible melody. He injects classic R&B and '60s pop inflections into what might otherwise have been a fairly straightforward singer-songwriter album. Consequently, echoes of everyone from The Band to Goffin and ...
