As good as it gets-I've been listening to them for over 10 years. Ray should be entertainer of the year.
Asleep At The Wheel is made up of great musicians that play music that I feel is underappreciated today. Remembers the Alamo is a very good and unique album. The Alamo is a good theme for a CD.
I am so forunate to have been able to see Asleep at Wheel in concert more than once!! They Rock!!
I saw them for the 1st time at the Starlight Music Series here in College Station. They did a lot of Bob Wills and Texas Swing music. Other songs they played that I liked were One Six Pack to Go by Hank Thompson and Hot Rod Lincoln by Charlie Ryan. They seemed more of a cover band at this show although they did play some originals. The venue, Wolfpen Creek, was mostly families with kids since the College Station Utilities put on the show for free. I would like to see Asleep at the Wheel play at Billy Bob's or something rather than Wolfpen. It just seemed as though they never really let loose and it was a pretty short show. I could tell these fools could play though and that is why I felt they didn't git er done at this show. Very cool band that I will go see again for sure!
when i here yall's music, i fall asleep at the wheel.
Asleep At The Wheel is the best Western Swing band in Texas (That Means The World) These guys are some of the best musicians you will find anywhere. They will always be the best for their staying power in this business. Ray Benson is a great singer and Jason Roberts as well. Every Album they put out is a winner in my opinion.
Great guys who play great music!
