Tiffany Transcriptions, Vol. 1

One of the best ways to introduce yourself to classic-era Western swing is with these mid-1940s recordings made by the iconic Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys. The Tiffany Transcriptions were live sets of tunes recorded in the Tiffany Music Company studios in Oakland, California, and designed to be played in their entirety over the radio as stand-alone broadcast shows. Many of the original acetate discs have now been cleaned up, mastered, and made available online and in contemporary formats, and they find Wills and his band at the peak of their powers.
