This review is from: Collision Course/The Wheel (Audio CD)

Collision Course is one great album, when this band had started to really jell. One O'Clock Jump won the Grammy for best instrumental that year and you have to hand it to Ray Bensen and Leroy Preston, who collaborated on most of the arraigning, to recognize the importance of the pedal steel in carrying the tune. The rest of the album is superb as well, with some country standards and the ever present fiddle, pedal steel and honky tonk piano. My Baby Thinks She's a Train on the Wheel (written by Leroy Preston) is one of the best original tunes this band ever did. In fact the band was never the same after Preston left, his voice and song writing skills were irreplaceable. The only album that came close to these two was an album done with Maryann Price (of Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks) called Framed, which Ray took the art form to a higher level with Maryann's and Chris O'Connell's sweet feminine voices. If you like the country swing/honky tonk that Bob Wills invented, these two albums are must haves.
