He was a singer and guitarist, a fan of early hillbilly star Jimmie Rogers, and became one of the pioneers of the style which became known as Western Swing when he formed his band The Country Ramblers in the early 1930s. With his own radio show in those days, called \"The Bill Boyd Ranch House\", he recorded well over 200 sides for the Bluebird and RCA labels from his 1934 debut through into the 1950s, when the careers of Bill and his brother Jim started to wind down. This 54-track 2-CD collection comprises selected A and B sides from his releases on the Bluebird and RCA-Victor labels from across his career. It features his US country hits \"Shame On You\" and \"New Steel Guitar Rag\", along with western swing classics like \"Under The Double Eagle\", \"Wah-Hoo\", \"Fan It\", \"Beaumont Rag\" and \"I've Got Those Oklahoma Blues\", offering a selection of both vocal and virtuoso instrumental performances. It is naturally a highly selective compilation from his large body of work, and only crosses over to a small extent with Acrobat's existing single-CD Bill Boyd Collections \"Saturday Night Rag 19934-36\" and \"Lone Star Rag 1937-39\". He was a ground-breaking artist and this is an enjoyable overview of his recording career.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRidin' On A Humpback Mule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRidin' Old Paint And Leadin' Old Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Gonna Hop Off The Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSt Louis Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMama Don't Like No Music Playin' Here\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSong Bird Yodel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoing Back To My Texas Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder The Double Eagle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Can't Tame Wild Women\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen The Sun Goes Down Again\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoyd's Blues (Weary Blues)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWah Hoo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoofus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Eyes Of Texas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiver Blues (Ready For The River)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Need One Sweet Letter From You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeale Street Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePut Me In Your Pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShow Me The Way To Go Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Can't Come In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe's Doggin' Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeaumont Rag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Wooden Whistle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFan It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSister Lucy Lee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross Eyed Gal On The Hill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThat's Why I'm Jealous Of You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'll Find You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou've Gotta See Mama Every Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're Just About Right\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Steel Guitar Rag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI've Got Those Oklahoma Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrosty Mornin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWon't You Please Come Home\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere Comes Pappy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Get The Blues For Mammy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome In Indiana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrink The Barrel Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwing Steel Swing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey Go Googoo Gaga Goofy Over Gobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJitterbug Jive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRolling Down The Great Divide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Birmingham Rose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShame on You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Spanish Two Step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalace In Dallas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Turn My Picture To The Wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Writing A Letter To Heaven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePull Down The Shades And Lock The Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever Break Your Promise To A Woman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToo Blue To Care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLone Star Rag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePass The Turnip Greens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYes You Did\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 824046356323\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acrobat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.8.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ShopTime Music \u0026 Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460391321858,"sku":"161279","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/9007\/7442\/files\/4434023-3434291.jpg?v=1773261157","url":"https:\/\/soundbendrecords.co\/products\/bill-boyd-his-cowboy-ramblers-singles-collection-1934-51-cd","provider":"Sound Bend Records ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
