4.0 out of 5 stars
Late-vintage Bob Wills, early Mel Tillis
Mel Tillis & Bob Wills "The King Of Western Swing" (Kapp, 1967) ------------------------------------ An odd pairing of two very different country stars - Bob Wills, the king of western swing, was in his twilight years, while honkytonker Mel Tillis was a successful songwriter but still a few years away from busting out as a successful solo...

2.0 out of 5 stars
Ho-hum sound
If you want to start gathering Bob's complete output, this set offers you a cheap option compared to the Bear Family boxes. Soundwise there's no comparison, this JSP sounds lifeless, shrill and lacks base. So the 2 stars reflect the unpleasant sound, there are not enough stars in the universe to rate the music!

Mel Tillis & Bob Wills
"The King Of Western Swing" (Kapp, 1967) ------------------------------------ An odd pairing of two very different country stars - Bob Wills, the king of western swing, was in his twilight years, while honkytonker Mel Tillis was a successful songwriter but still a few years away from busting out as a successful solo performer. This Kapp LP was released under two different catalog numbers during the same year: KL-1523 (mono) and KS-3523 (stereo) (DJ Joe Sixpack, Slipcue Guide To Country Music) Tracks include: San Antonio Rose Looking Over My Shoulder Eight'r From Decatur Faded Love I Needed You Memphis Sugarfoot Rag Let's Be Sure We Know I Wish I Felt This Way At Home Big Beaver Somewhere South Of San Antone Comanche Hit And Run
