For serious lovers of American music and its evolution, you simply can't be without this box set of Bob Wills And His Texas Playboys; it's too important and it's too amazing! Few things can put you right in the heart of the 1930's like this box set right here. This consummate and legendary entertainer had his priorities straight--get those people on the dance floor and keep them there! (How pathetic it's gotten--techno, and rappers that can't play a lick. Hope there's Western Swing in heaven.)
