I was lucky enough to know Leon's wife, Lucille McAuliffe, she was a realtor in Tulsa and I helped her with her closings back in the day. God bless her sweet soul!
Yes, Texas Swing, or Western Swing, or Cowboy Jazz.. there would often be 3 fiddles (as in Spade Cooley's band) .. by the late 50's the style was for smaller 'combos', but there is no mistaking the influence this music had on the rockabilly music that followed ... wonderful stuff :) .. and lots of people are interested lol ..

Sorry ,didn’t mean to post this twice. Love seeing these wonderful reminders of musicians and artist who paved the way for today’s talent. Never forget where you come from or those who helped you on your journey ! My dad and his brother produced a live music show in the mid-seventies broadcast live on Saturday evenings over WZZK FM 104.7 in Birmingham,Al .
Town Hall Party was on L.A. TV (from nearby Compton) from 1952 to 1960. Eventually parts of it were aired nationally, and then there was a network version in the late 50s called "Ranch Party." It was heard on L.A. radio too.
