Jethro Bodean Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 Just listining to Keepin Me Up Nights by Asleep At The Wheel, and wondering if anyone could recommend some similar stuff by some other bands. I know Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen do some excellent Texas swing ( Along with Hot Rod Lincoln ) and SRV dabbles in that sound, but who does it better than Asleep At The Wheel? Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys? I don't really care for pure country, but really like this swinging stuff, so lets hear some names of your favorite groups. Thanks Jethro.....

Flason Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown does a good Texas swing style. Check out Back to Bougalusa, New American Music-Texas Style, Okie Dokie Stomp. I would consider him somwhat blues/Texas swing, with a little bit of Cajun thrown in. Cool stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Palm Posted May 4, 2002 Share Posted May 4, 2002 OLD97'S! This is a GREAT Texas band that can swing,rock,and wail. It's what you get when you cross the British Invasion with Bob Wills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro Bodean Posted May 10, 2002 Author Share Posted May 10, 2002 Lone Palm Thanks for the recommendation. Noticed you are in Louisiana. Do you like zydeco? jethro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Palm Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Zydeco is pretty hip. It's hard to listen to and not get one body part or the other movin'.Lassiz le bon ton roulet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
