To all you Western Swing aficionados out there, here's a heads-up that Joaquin Records has just released, or is about to release, a follow-up collection of early '50s material from Billy Jack Wills & his Western Swing Band. It's called "Crazy, Man, Crazy!" and is the entirety of the out-of-print, early '80s LP on Western Records (of the same title) plus extra tracks (18 in all). Quite simply, this stuff is in my headphones right now and it rocks, blues, and swings (in an early '50s kind of western way, of course). And Vance Terry on the steel! Skiddle Dee Boo! Boudin Dan
