Bob Wills is the only music me and my grandparents have in common but im sure glad they got me hooked on him. Bob Wills can make u feel good at the worst of times.

Hi Ladymech62...yeh, we went to the Johnnie Lee Wills Rodeo (Roundup I think?)and we were young enough that Larry Mahan was still riding then. Johnnie would ride Black Diamond into the ring to kick off the rodeo, and he'd rare up just like Roy Rogers. Boy we thot we were in heaven. My friend is related to the Wills by marriage, so we knew John Jr. and we'd admire his big brown eyes, like little girls do! Yes, his band is wonderful and they're keepin' the fire burning!

I miss his western store. Did you have a chance to go to the rodeos too? Johnnie Lee's son is a good musician too.Can't live in Tulsa and not soak up this music into your soul . . . and I'm a life long Tulsan !Long live Western Swing !!

There's not TOO many times that I am glad I grew up when and where I did, but living at 21st and Memorial in Tulsa afforded me the honor of knowing Johnnie Lee and Eldin Shamblin. My best friend was related to the Wills family, so we visited Johnnie Lee daily at his western shop. What a joy he was, and I caught up with Eldin in '82 at the Maybee Center, when he was with Merle. What a life!!!Ahhhhhhhhaaaaaaa........

Loved it! Only too bad it was cut right when Dolly was about to sing The Seeker.
