EP-89 This is a rare undiscovered recording by Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys on March 2, 1958. It was recorded during a KVOO On-Air Radio Broadcast from the Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Bob and the Boys are talking with the radio announcer and performing live on stage. The song they are performing in this video is “Shake, Rattle and Roll”.
Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys played all sorts of music. So long as the song made the dancers get out on the dance floor, that is all that mattered. The idea was to entertain the people who came to see them and give them a good time.
The band played it all: western swing, hoedowns, swing tunes, waltzes, blues, straight country, rhythm and blues, and even rock and roll, as you will hear in this rare radio broadcast recording.
What you are about to hear is a rare recording of Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys performing “Shake, Rattle and Roll” live on stage during the KVOO On-Air Radio Broadcast at the Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Oklahoma on March 2, 1958.
