Music reviews of Take Me Back to Tulsa

Music Review: SIMPLY GREAT!! BEST OF THE BUNCH, FOR THE MONEY!!
Rating: 5 Stars

I've got a multi-disc cd player that's always loaded with rock, jazz fusion, or whatever, and I change the discs all the time. But, there's always at least one of the discs from "Take Me Back to Tulsa" that I can't seem to want to take out! And, for the life of me, I can't get tired of this stuff! Just what the hell is that?!
For the amount of joy, foot-tapping, head swinging, and bobbing I get from this set, I think I'd be tempted to pay four times as much (if I had to), for this fabulous country-swing! Thank goodness, it's mostly "junk" that dominates the airwaves these days, otherwise something this good would probably command much more money from the record companies!
Don't misunderstand me, I'm not some highly opinionated fellow who grew up listening to this type of music in the '30s and '40s. "Led Zeppelin" were popular when I was a kid!
But, being a musician myself, I found out about Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys through "Guitar Player" magazine, or one of the other guitar magazines, citing Bob's music as being very important, and highly innovative, with regards to electric guitar playing.
So, I bought "The Essential Bob Wills 1935-1947", which is very good, but this is even better! And even better yet,(much to my pleasant surprise), was that not only is there plenty of superb electric steel, and electric six-string guitar work, but all this great guitar playing just happens to be surrounded by great music, as well!
Joyous, swinging, energetic, fun! I can't help but imagine that it must have been amazing to play in that band! The spirit! The pace! The wit! The unabashed energy!
Even though there are two very expensive box sets (one close to, and one above $400!) with tons of material, a great book, and DVD, I'll certainly settle for this, for now, unless the price of those two goes down!
I listened to most of the samples from both of those (high priced) sets, and I couldn't help but notice that the higher sound quality versions were, in fact, "different" versions, probably recorded some years later. That's not to say they weren't good- they were, in fact, great! Just "different". And the songs that were obviously the exact same ones taken from the exact same takes,(that are also on this set), don't seem to sound any better on the high-priced sets (contrary to one review). Perhaps maybe "slightly" better in some cases, but that's it! But, if you have the money, there are plenty of other great songs on both of those sets. I liked a lot of the stuff that was probably from the early '50s on "Faded Love", as well as some of the many other "early" songs on the other expensive set, "San Antonio Rose."
In the meantime, I'll be quite happy and content listening to plenty of abundant fun and energy on "Take Me Back to Tulsa!"
