Billy Jack Wills was the youngest brother of the Wills western swing dynasty. Born February 26, 1926, in Memphis, Hall County, TX, Billy Jack joined the family business as Johnnie Lee Wills' bass player in his late teens. However, mighty Bob Wills ordered him to California to join the Texas Playboys as bass player and drummer. He was also occasionally featured as a vocalist, and he proved his worth by writing the lyrics to Faded Love, Will's massive hit of 1950.\r\n\r\nIn the late 1940s, Billy Jack Wills took over management of Wills Point, Bob's club in Sacramento. While Bob and the Texas Playboys went on tour again, Billy Jack formed the house band that accompanied him on these recordings. Legendary Playboy Tiny Moore did not want to get back on the road with Bob and became the featured star and co-vocalist in Billy Jack's Western Swing Band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKentucky Means Paradise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e There's Good Rockin' Tonight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Crazy Man Crazy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cadillac In Model 'A'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Out Of Gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hey Lula (Hey Lu-La)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Air Mail Special\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e For You My Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e All She Wants To Do Is Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Kissin' Bug Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Roped And Tied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e C-Jam Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sweet Georgia Brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Water Baby Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Don't Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Sugar Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Bottle Baby Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Milk Cow Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jelly Roll Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Troubles (Those Lonesome Kind)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Woodchopper's Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rock-A-Bye Baby Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e She's A Quarter Horse Type (Of A Gal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lonesome Hearted Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dipsy Doodle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tobacco Chewing Boogie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mr. Cotton Picker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hey Mr. Mailman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Teardrops From My Eyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cadillac In Model 'A' (MGM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e My Shoes Keep Walkin' Back To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50553902039314,"sku":"4000127176448","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/billy-jack-wills-cadillac-in-model-a-gonna-shake-this-shack-tonight-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
