1	King of Western Swing [JSP] (2007) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys JSP's outstanding four-CD Bob Wills anthology consists of 100 classic Western swing performances recorded between September 1935 and April 1940 in Dallas, Fort Worth, Chicago, and Saginaw. Almost all of these 78-rpm records came out under the name of the Texas Playboys; the only exceptions are two fiddle and guitar duets by Bob Wills and Sleepy ... see all copies from $13.87! new only from $26.40!
2	For the Last Time (1974) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys For the Last Time documents two historic moments in American music: The last time Bob Wills would ever attend or participate in a recording session -- he never made the final day of the session, having suffered a severe stroke the night before -- and the reunion of the great Texas Playboys, who began in the 1930s and recorded and toured together ... see all copies from $10.79! new only from $10.79!
3	Sings & Plays/In Concert (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys Here are two Bob Wills titles packaged together on a single disc by Collectables. Bob Wills Sings & Plays was originally issued on the Liberty label in 1963; In Concert was released by Capitol in 1976 a year after Wills passed away, but it was from the same period as the Liberty sides. Both albums feature a late edition of the Texas Playboys in ... see all copies from $13.94! new only from $13.94!
4	American Roots: A History of American Folk Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Dutch discount reissue label Disky's four-CD box set American Roots: A History of American Folk Music is an ambitious undertaking, at least as far as sheer length is concerned. In other respects, it can be considered skimpy: the packaging is negligible; there are no annotations beyond song titles, artist and songwriter credits, and copyright dates ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $77.77!
5	The Essential Bob Wills 1935-1947 (1992) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys A basic 20-track primer to some of the Western swing master's best sides. Acknowledged classics like "Steel Guitar Rag," "Take Me back to Tulsa," and "Stay a Little Longer" are all here, with the players and arrangements that made Wills and his Texas Playboys legends in country music. Cub Koda, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.06! new only from $11.06!
6	Legends of Country Music: The Best of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys As is often the case nowadays, not long after Legacy released the definitive Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys four-disc, 105-track box set Legends of Country Music, the label released a single-disc, 18-track summary of that set, Legends of Country Music: The Best of Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys. Most of Wills' key recordings are here, like "New ... see all copies from $10.00! new only from $10.00!
7	Doughboys, Playboys and Cowboys: The Golden Years of Western Swing (1999) more music like this by Various Artists This four-disc box chronicles the development of Western swing from the Fort Worth Doughboys' 1932 recordings through its heyday in the late '40s. Along the way, the collection covers every major artist, from Bob Wills and Spade Cooley to pioneers like Milton Brown and Bill Boyd, who have been under-represented almost to the point of extinction in ... see all copies from $25.95! new only from $25.95!
8	Legends of Country Music (2006) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys That Bob Wills was one of the architects of American music is a given, but his particular creation -- he didn't name it Western swing, but that's what it came to be called -- did not arise from the dust. Wills, refusing to be restricted, subsumed virtually every genre available to him at the time, from blues to big band, popular song to old-timey, ... see all copies from $35.00! new only from $35.00!
9	Texas (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.75!
10	Bob Wills Special (2004) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys This issue in Collectables' Priceless Collection series is actually a reissue of a 1981 LP by Harmony Records. Here are 14 tracks by Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys ranging from the 1930s to the early '50s. All are original recordings, and while "San Antonio Rose," "Big Ball's in Cowtown," and "Cotton-Eyed Joe" are not here, "Steel Guitar Rag," ... see all copies from $5.48! new only from $5.48!
11 view cover	Hall of Fame (2000) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys Hall of Fame collects 22 songs from Bob Wills & His Texas Playboy's Liberty years, and includes Billboard chart hits like "San Antonio Rose," "Stay a Little Longer," "Hang Your Head in Shame," "Bubbles in My Beer," and "Ida Red Likes the Boogie." A good collection of the group's late-'50s/early-'60s recordings. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
12 view cover	Historic Edition (1982) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys Columbia Historic Edition is a 10-track compilation of material Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys recorded for Columbia Records in the late '30s and '40s, with eight of the tracks dating before 1941. Many of Wills' greatest songs, such as "Right or Wrong" and "Cherokee Maiden," are included, as are a handful of lesser-known songs like "Lyla Lou" ... see all copies from $8.00!
13 view cover	San Antonio Rose [Rhino] (1997) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys At a glance, San Antonio Rose looks like a typically cruddy budget collection, but it's really a lot more interesting than it seems, for these tracks comprise what are arguably the most essential parts of Rhino's Tiffany Transcriptions series, and as such may be considered by some as the definitive Bob Wills sampler. Of course, the best part about ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.68!

15 view cover	Tiffany Transcriptions, Vol. 2 (1986) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys Subtitled "The Best of the Tiffanys," Tiffany Transcriptions, Vol. 2 is 14-song collection made up of live-in-the-studio radio transcription versions of some of Bob Wills' most popular numbers, including "Take Me Back to Tulsa," "Cherokee Maiden," "Steel Guitar Rag," "Ida Red," and "San Antonio Rose." Essentially a live best-of, the performances ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $12.00!

18 view cover	Howdy! 25 Hillbilly All-Time Greats (1995) more music like this by Various Artists To say that country has evolved considerably over the years would be an understatement. Play some of the '20s recordings of Jimmie Rodgers, Riley Puckett, and the Carter Family right after hearing something that Patty Loveless or Trisha Yearwood provided 70 years later, and you'll receive a dramatic demonstration of just how much country has ... see all copies from $11.34! new only from $11.34!

20 view cover	26 All-Time Country Classics (1998) more music like this by Various Artists This Pearl collection deserves its lofty title, but barely. Though many of these selections would never have occurred to country fans ("You Are My Sunshine" by the Rice Brothers Gang "Born to Lose" by Ted Daffan), 26 All-Time Country Classics balances about a dozen all-time classics with great tracks by obscure singers. Appearing alongside the ... see all copies from $12.79!
21 view cover	A Country Christmas Collection [Polygram] (1991) more music like this by Various Artists An uneven collection, it has a few standouts: Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys turn in a playful "Santa's on His Way," and the more sentimental strains of "When It's Christmas on the Range." Jerry Lee Lewis, an underrated country singer, can break your heart with "I Can't Have a Merry Christmas, Mary, Without You," and George Jones is high and ... see all copies from $15.46!
22 view cover	Tiffany Transcriptions, Vol. 3 (1986) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys With the unofficial title "Basin Street Blues," Tiffany Transcriptions, Vol. 3 is devoted to Bob Wills' covers of jazz and blues standards. In addition to the free-spirited version of title track, we get covers of Kokomo Arnold's "Milk Cow Blues," Lee Pockriss' "Crazy Rhythm," Phil Baxter's "I'm a Ding Dong Daddy," and eight previously unissued ... see all copies from $12.48!
23	The Golden Era (1987) more music like this by Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys A perfect complement to The Bob Wills Anthology, this two-LP set from 1987 does not duplicate any of the earlier compilation's performances. Bob Wills' Texas Playboys were the most influential of all Western swing bands, setting the standard for other groups to follow. This very interesting collection has 32 lesser-known but rewarding performances ... see all copies from $18.00!
24 view cover	Songs of the West, Vol. 2 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.65!
