1966 Mono Original. “Although Not Nearly As Well-Known As Figures Like Bob Wills, The Maddox Brothers, And Merle Travis, Tex Williams Was An Important Western Swing Performer. Like All Of The Aforementioned Musicians, He Helped Develop Country Music From Its Rural, Acoustic Origins To A More Danceable, City-Fied, And Electrified Form With A Much Wider Popular Appeal. At His Peak In The Late '40s (Following A Stint As Vocalist For Spade Colley’s Band) He Also Recorded Some Of The Most Enjoyable Country Swing Of His Time, Distinguished By His Talking-Blues Vocal Delivery. Much Of His Style Can Be Heard In The Western Swing-Influenced Recordings Of Revivalists Like Asleep At The Wheel, Commander Cody, And Dan Hicks.” – Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide
