Presented here is a slice from the golden age of Western swing, indeed a 'Western Swing Dance Date'. Its purpose was, and is, to entertain, through the grim war years of the 1940s and the happier aftermath. Clear the floor and get ready to dance! Spade Cooley on his own is very nice, add Tex Williams and you have a real winner. Spade was undoubtedly one of the 'Kings' of Western swing, and his band could fill dance halls throughout the South and Western states in America. Tex Williams was vocalist with Spade for a while, before leading his own band and pursuing a very successful solo career. Presented here by Jasmine are 27 tracks of pure Western swing pleasure.
