Product Description
SouthlandRecords.com is proud to present Grammy Award Winner Tommy Allsup's Cd True Love Ways. This insturmental guitar/s Cd project is dedicated to Maria Elena Holly. If you ask Tommy Allsup "What kind of music do you enjoy performing?" He'll tell you "Good Music". In a career that spans close to fifty years a musician, arranger, and record producer, he has enjoyed the wide spectrum of all musical forms and styles. He was a member of " Buddy Holly's Crickets", and anyone who has heard them realizes the enormous influence this group has had on rock and roll and country rock. Tommy's life was literally and profoundly changed through his association with Holly. Allsup, remember, lost the coin toss to Ritchie Vallens for a seat on the plane that crashed on February 3, 1959, killing Vallens, Holly, and the Big Bopper. In 1990, Paul McCartney brought the London hit play "Buddy" to Broadway. That same year Paul threw his annual "Buddy Holly Birthday Bash" at the legendary Lone Star Roadhouse Cafe in New York City. Playing those old Holly hits like "That'll Be The Day" & "Oh Boy", with Paul brought back great memories for Allsup who, the very next night was in Pawhuska, Oklahoma playing a dance with the great "Bob Wills' Texas Playboys Band". How's that for a musical trip in time. Tommy is still a member of "The Bob Will's Texas Playboys Band", having joined the Johnnie Lee Wills Band in 1952. He started producing records with, Bob Wills in 1961 for Liberty Records. Today The Bob Wills' Texas Playboys ae playing Wills' music all over the country. Sometimes it gets a little tough trying to balance his time taking care of his recording studio, performing with The Bob Wills' Texas Playboys, and having time to spend at home. As a record producer, his credits read like an encyclopedia: Bob Wills, Willie Nelson, Johnny Bush, Hank Thompson, Mickey Gilley, Gene Watson, Leon Rausch, George Jones, Lorrie Morgan, Ron Gaddis, Joe Carson, Clay Hart, Tex Williams, Chill Wills, Stan Hitchcock, Asleep At The Wheel, and on and on. Tommy has spent more than twenty five years playing guitar and bass guitar as a session musician in Nashville and Los Angeles, logging more than 10,000 sessions. He not only enjoys working with the stars of the industry, but also the new unknowns, the potential stars of the future. "You never know when the next new super star might walk into the studio" To those who know him, Tommy is a man at ease, whether he's talking about the music business, politics, or the new crop of vegetables growing in his garden at home. When you listen to this collection of great country standards, you will hear and feel that ease with which he flawlessly plays the melodies and harmonies, keeping them fresh and timeless as the day they were written. So sit back and relax, and take a musical journey with Tommy Allsup and his guitar. ---- CD booklet written by Ken Youngblood
