Coming Soon Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys
Even if you are not a country western fan you probably know who Waylon Jennings is and very well might know his song Bob Wills Is Still The King. So who was Bob Willis you may wonder? He played violin and lead the group the Texas Playboys. He was known as the king of Western Swing which birthed the Western side of Country Western. And that Western Swing music is rooted in the blues and in jazz. Even Ornette Coleman played with him early on. Yes the Bebop and founder of the free jazz played Western Swing with Bob's Texas Playboys!
