The May edition of the recorded continuous airing of "Swingin' West" has just come up on the Internet on twangtownusa.com. It will be on 24 hours a day seven days a week, over and over, for the entire month.



The theme for this month, May, is a tribute to recently deceased Steel Guitar legend Tom Morrell. You will hear Tom playing steel behind such stars as Craig Chambers, Jean Prescott, Chris O’Connell and Brady Bowen and his Swing Country doing a Bob Wills, Joe Andrews composition that Joe sang with the Wills band in the 1960s.



You will also hear Tom’s playing on recordings by Nolan Bruce Allen, Bobby Boatright, the great Leon Rausch, John Stout (with a Lou Rochelle/Doodle Owens gem) and Joe Paul Nichols doing one of Chuck Cusimano’s great compositions.



Tom is heard playing steel on recordings of both Roland Davis and Tony Ramsey doing Spade Cooley classics and with Roy Lee Brown paying tribute to brother Milton from one of Johnny Case’s Priority label gems. Bob Wills’ talented niece Dayna, fiddle legend Curly Lewis and Fiddlin’ Walt Roberts are also heard with the Tom Morrell steel on their recordings.



The recorded edition of "Swingin' West" can always be heard by clicking the mouse on the appropriate spot on the bottom of the home page of the "Swingin' West" web site, www.swinginwest.com



Thank You!

Jody,

Thanks so very much for the bump.

This recorded show can be heard just with Real Player and can be heard very easily as it is not a live stream.

Tune this in anytime of the day or night if you can't catch Mike's show on Fridays for some great western swing and a tribute to the great Tom Morrell.
