It is filled with pure western swing and Texas dance hall music with the musicians showing their musical talent and Jerry in the center stage vocal spotlight. The DVD is exactly the same as the CD with the wonderful video to see these musicians on stage playing their instruments, singing and looking great. In addition to Jerry on vocal, the band is comprised of the very talented album producer, Ron Stafford, playing his Rains steel guitar and acoustic guitar. The very popular Reggie Rueffer plays fiddle and does background vocals. Also doing background vocals is super electric guitarist, Billy Martin. Derrick Speigner is the drummer, Chad Rueffer plays bass guitar and Chip Bricker plays piano and is the engineer. The album also opens with one of Jerry's original Texas dance hall compositions Wall to Wall. Others in that style, written by Jerry, are Red Lips, Party List, Turn to the Wine and Tonight I'm Drinking it Over. From the Bob Wills book are Jesse Ashlock's The Kind of Love and the Wills family classic Faded Love. The Texas dance hall sound is also felt on Harlan Howard's Another Bridge to Burn, Faron Young and Billy Deaton's Wine Me Up, Mel Tillis' Heart Over Mind, Hank Cochran's Don't You Ever Get Tired, Cinderella. from the Tony Booth hit parade and three from Johnny Bush, Ben Peters' Green Snakes, Rain Making Baby from Dallas Frazier and Johnny's own classic composition, Whiskey River. The three remaining tunes are top class Western Swing, Kokomo Arnold's Milk Cow Blues from Johnnie Lee Wills, the Wade Ray memory from the writing talents of Steve Nelson and Jack Rollins, Heart of a Clown and an awesome instrumental of Sammy Fain and Paul Francis Webster's My Secret Love from the early 50s movie Calamity Jane. .Mike Gross, WVOF-FM, Fairfield, CT June 18, 2010 This CD/DVD can be ordered for $16, postage paid in the USA, from Jerry Webb Music, P.O.

I would like to send out a special Thank You to David Stallings with TEXAS COUNTY LINE for filming our band at Pearl's Dancehall and Saloon. The program is being aired on several cable channels. We will be releasing the live CD and Video of this performance in the next month or two. |
| I would also like to give special recognition to my friend Ron Stafford for his excellent work as the producer and for his arrangements on my last two albums "There's a Song In That" and "Live At Pearls Dancehall". Ron is an exceptional steel guitar and guitar player and is known as one of the most tasteful and achomplished players in the business. Ron also plays a Rains Steel Guitar and I am proud to be on the bandstand with him and for his friendship. |  |
