In this clip, from a 1940's B Western, Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, on stage to entertain the locals, are introduced by Tex Ritter. The King of Western Swing then launches into a rendition of his classic 'Lone Star Rag.'

"They're good, aren't they?"
Tex Ritter responds, "Best in the West."

Too right, too right.

  • @MrUranus100 That's an amplified lap steel guitar, played by Leon McAuliffe.

  • @TheDuggero

    Maybe so, but did you notice the sock puppet in his pants?

  • The 6 people who disliked this video listens to Justin Bieber and lady gaga

  • The film was Take Me Back to Oklahoma (1940). Bob Wills would record his most famous record, "San Antonia Rose" in 1941. He would later appear with Russell Hayden in a Columbia series and also with Charles Starrett in his Durango Kid movies.

  • He seems effeminate to me just a bit!

  • @arlichar11 He really is..

  • Awesome sound.... But is he packin a pistol??? That would be the ONLY time I have ever seen someone play the fiddle with a gun at the same time lol
