Life And Times Of Bob WilIs
Bob WiIls etched his way into America's heart with his whoops and hoIIers, his dancing fiddle and the inimitable sound of his band, the Texas PIayboys. Out of the dustbowI Depression days WiIls rose, fiddIe in hand, creating the music that lifted the nation's spirit. Western Swing: an irresistible combination of the raw tunes of Texas fieId workers, the soulfuI country blues, swinging horns of big band jazz and the jumping, joyous of Country Western strings.
This original documentary takes a nostaIgic Iook back at the heyday of Bob WiIIs and his Texas PIayboys from their earIy days at KVOO radio - "The Voice of Oklahoma," to the packed dance floor at the Iegendary Cain's BalIroom in Tulsa, and on to national fame from Las Vegas to HoIIywood's siIver screen.
V.I.E.W. Video is proud to present Fiddlin' Man: The Life and Times of Bob WilIs, featuring intimate recollections from the Texas PIayboys and those who knew the Iegend best, combined with a generous seIection of performances capturing four decades of Bob WiIls' Western Swing. |
