5.0 out of 5 stars Great Set Of Western Swing, November 16, 2005

"Stompin' Singers & Western Swingers" takes up where Proper's last Western Swing set, "Doughboys, Playboys and Cowboys", left off.

Plenty of great toe-tapping music from the famous and not-so-famous performers of the era.

The songs are the original versions and the sound quality is just fine.

Also included is an informative booklet with facts about the songs and the artists.

As with every other box set I own from Proper, this is a tremendous value.

4.0 out of 5 stars Uneven but worth the price for one GREAT song, September 21, 2005

Not what I expected. I was hoping for lots of Western swing here but many of these songs do not qualify for that category - there is no way that some of these songs could be considered Western swing. Lots of filler. But then you come upon Wade Ray's "It's all your fault!" What a find! This is one GREAT song. Sheer perfection: great lyrics, great music, a perfect vocal, wonderful guitar and fiddle. I uploaded that one in my ipod and have been listening to it ever since. If my ipod was a jukebox, I would have spent the equivalent of this set's price in quarters for all the times I have played that song. If you love Western swing, get the Bob Wills box set. He was the king of Western swing and his band was red hot.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Deal in Town, March 30, 2005

Over 100 western swing masterpieces, most not available elsewhere, are here for your dancing and listening enjoyment! Most of them are up-tempo and have jazzy and jivey themes with hot solos and impassioned vocals - nothing called "country" music today compares to this. If you have the previous set in the series (Cowboys, Doughboys and Playboys), you'll know how good the Proper label sets are, and this one is at least as good. There's also an informative booklet included, with pictures, which will teach you all you need to know about the music and the artists. If you have ever heard of Cab Calloway, Fats Waller, Buck Owens or Asleep at the Wheel and appreciate this kind of music you simply can't go wrong here.
