Asleep at the Wheel

Asleep at the Wheel’s self-titled second album finds them continuing to develop what would become their stock in trade: unapologetic Western swing revivalism. But there’s also some subtle updating happening here — or maybe less than subtle, at least in the case of the disco string section on “You and Me Instead.” For the most part, though, this is hard-swinging, honky-tonking, old-school midcentury country jazz buffed to a high 1970s sheen.
