This week, please join Bob Wills’ Texas Playboys, under the direction of Jason Roberts, and me for a special live broadcast of SWING ON THIS. At this writing, I don’t know the song lineup, but I can tell you the band will be playing some of the tunes that Bob and the boys cut during their very first recording session, which took place in Dallas in 1935 — 90 years ago.
It’s a once-a-year extravaganza coming to you, as always, from the mother church of Western swing, Tulsa’s Cain’s Ballroom. And you can get it all for free by tuning us in at 7 p.m., Tulsa time, over T-town NPR affiliate KWGS, 89.5, or by catching the live stream anywhere in the cosmos at publicradiotulsa.org. It’s going to be a dandy!
