[Dixielandjazz] Western Tunes and Jazz

[George Thurmond]

        If any of you cats are still wondering if any hillbilly, western, or
c & w tunes can really swing in jazz or dixieland assembly, check out this
other great example from Bob Erdos and Stomp Off - Chris Tyle's N. O. River
Boys "A Tribute To Benny Strickler". (CD1235).  Benny played for a time with
Bob Wills.  Listen to the River Boys renditions of these country classics -
"It Makes No Difference Now", "Let's All Ride With Bob", and especially "Ten
Years" - and then who says it can't be done well.
