Wonderful Album - Dump the Deluxe,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Willie and the Wheel - DELUXE VERSION (Audio CD)
As there are already some excellent album reviews on this release, I'll skip that part. Suffice to say, if you are a fan of Western Swing, it doesn't get much better than this lineup. The music is well executed - if even perhaps too well as the raw live feel of AATW is distinctly missing. Willie is, dare I even think it, a bit beyond his prime, but he still sounds wonderful on this album. He's recorded with AATW before and it's clear he loves it.
As to the "Deluxe" aspect of this version, although you do get an extra song on the CD, it is hardly worth the packaging - which is essentially a gratuitous over-sized 5x7" tri-fold of cardboard and does not include a standard sized CD case. Inside are stamps with pictures of the musicians, except of course they're not real stamps, and vintage looking postcards depicting the songs, except they're printed on thin paper and probably not useful as postcards. Unless you're a hard-core Willie/AATW fan and have a desire for a bunch of useless memorabilia, consider the regular non-deluxe version of this release.

WHEEL AND WILLIE KEEP ON ROLLING ALONG,
By
This review is from: Willie and the Wheel - DELUXE VERSION (Audio CD)
If you are not familiar with the sounds of the Wheel what better place to begin than with this CD. The addition of the clarinet, trpt., and trombone make this a nice tight ensemble to feature Willie. I don't know what you are expecting to get from this CD, but I promise you that you will get more than you imagined. By purchasing the premier edition you get some very unique postcards, etc. taking you back in time. Just a little bit of nice nostalgia. So what are you waiting for, send your money in and buy this new selection today. You will love it............and that is a promise from someone that owns many many records, cassettes and CD's of Willie and the same for the Wheel. Happy listening. Kermit Tanzey

Awesome,

This review is from: Willie and the Wheel - DELUXE VERSION (Audio CD)
Purchased the Deluxe Edition because of the postcards and cinderella (not real) stamps of the various artists that is included with this CD. That in itself was worth the purchase. Awesome!!
