What
happens when you put together
eight first-class musicians
with resumes that include playing/recording
with New Riders of the Purple
Sage, Aaron Neville, Asleep
at the Wheel, Ray Charles, David
Grisman, & TJ Kirk? You
get SWINGIN' WEST! -- a two-night
celebration of the 100th birthday
of the King of Western Swing,
Bob Wills (recorded on 2/18/05
+ 2/19/05).
Culled from eight hours of high-octane
performances, this DVD captures
the highlights of the amazing
8-piece line-up that was featured
for this event. The personnel
includes Western Swing Hall
of Fame inductee Tommy Thomsen
(vocals & rhythm guitar),
the legendary Bobby
Black
(steel guitar), TJ Kirk bandmates
Will
Bernard
(guitar), and John
Schott
(guitar), plus Jeremy
Cohen
(violin), Kirk Harwood (drums),
Trevor Kinsel (bass), with a
very special appearance by Bob
Wills Texas Playboy drummer
Johnny Cuviello (1945-1948).
Two nights of pure rug-cutting
Western Swing by some of the
finest pickin’-n-grinnin’
musicians Northern California
has to offer!
This DVD will be released
on Monday, July 03, 2006. |
