75th ANNIVERSARY ALBUM

This Light Crust Doughboys’ album is historic in many ways: 75th Anniversary Album,

final sessions of legendary pianist/songwriter/Doughboy Bill Simmons, last recording

sessions to date of John Walden/Jerry Elliott/Art Greenhaw together, last Doughboys’

session to be recorded “live” with no overdubs in classic analog recording style. Even

though these are his “final sessions”, keyboardist Bill Simmons has never sounded better

or never danced on the keys with more flair. All the ‘Boys are giving it their “live” all,

sensing that they’ll never be together again in this recording environment, re-creating

sounds that have thrilled fans of their stage shows for years. No Doughboys’ fan should be

without this 75th ANNIVERSARY ALBUM: BILL SIMMONS TRIBUTE.

THE HIGH ROAD ON THE HILLTOP: Light Crust

Doughboys & SMU Mustang Band

Daily Campus Album Rating: A

BAND COLLABORATION BRINGS BLAST FROM THE PAST

. . .jazzy jukebox tunes of THE HIGH ROAD CD. The album consists of a wide range of

influences, including those of jazz, swing, and country and western styles. The 19 track CD

is great mood music, perfect . . .

For instance, “Hangin? ?Round Deep Ellum”, a song written by The Doughboys

singer/guitarist/electric bassist, Art Greenhaw, is about Dallas? downtown nightspot, a

place prominent in the music and art scenes today. THE HIGH ROAD ON THE HILLTOP is

TEXAS SWING: THE LIGHT CRUST DOUGHBOY

WAY

This is the ground-breaking CD album that ushered in the silver-age renaissance of The

Light Crust Doughboys in the 1990s. This extra-length CD marks several “firsts”: first

album production of Smokey Montgomery and Art Greenhaw together, first album by The

Light Crust Doughboys to feature brass and reeds, and more. Album contains Doughboys’

stage show fan favorites for decades including “San Antonio Rose”, “Time Changes

Everything”, others. More of a pop album than some of the group’s and Art’s later, rootsier,

funkier, bluesier projects, this work has long been an essential pick for fans of dixieland,

variety and big band. Both this and its follow-up album, YESTERDAY AND TODAY by The

Light Crust Doughboys, were Best-Of-Show at the 1996 State Fair of Texas-Hall Of State-

The Light Crust Doughboys exhibit.

ADVENTURE IN COUNTRY SWING

Being a musician myself, I have always loved all styles of music. I have to admit that many

of the songs on this CD are memories my father played when I was a boy growing up in the

’50s.

This CD is very special to me because it blends the talents of my favorite guitarist, Nokie

Edwards, with the finest in Texas Country Swing talent… The Light Crust Doughboys and

Tom Brumley. The Doughboys provide the unique and smooth rhythm foundation for the

experienced soloing of Nokie Edwards and Tom Brumley. Tom’s steel guitar gives a

haunting liquid beauty to these classic songs. His immense talent and precision is

perfectly obvious throughout. Art Greenhaw, this CD’s producer/engineer and

bassist/vocalist for the Doughboys, has waited a long time to finally perform with his

guitar hero, Nokie Edwards — A treat leaving guitarists everywhere envious.

Nokie (former lead guitarist of The Ventures) comes to this CD bringing his strong, early

roots in country music. With obvious bias from Art and myself, Nokie has the fingers,

style, tone and precision that launched a million guitarists. His technique continues to

inspire young guitarists around the world and earns him the eternal, well-deserved title

“King of Guitar”.

“Adventure in County Swing” is the only and perfect title for this CD. The blended talents

and styles of these fine musicians are an adventure in listening. The cover of this CD gives

us a delightful allusion to Nokie’s historical past and a stroll down memory lane. Run,

Don’t Walk to your CD player!

A SURF N SWING-FRET N STRING CHRISTMAS

An eclectic romp through traditional Christmas Carols, Folk Spirituals, and even a little bit

of Yuletide Surf music by Ventures Guitar Great—Nokie Edwards and The Original Texas

Swing Band—The Light Crust Doughboys.

Thanks to my idol in guitar, Nokie Edwards, my fondest Christmas memories include not

only the family and spiritual things, but also the playing over and over again of THE

VENTURES’ CHRISTMAS ALBUM with Nokie on lead guitar. We have sincerely tried to

capture a lot of the “good times-Americana” sounds associated with guitars, girls, dancing

and swing music, and we’ve seasoned it all with the folk, country and gospel sounds of

The Light Crust Doughboys and our southwestern musical heritage. I still play THE

VENTURES’ CHRISTMAS ALBUM over and over again starting each November, but now I

have another one to place in heavy rotation by its side…. A SURF ‘N’ SWING/FRET ‘N’

STRING CHRISTMAS!

— Art Greenhaw

20TH CENTURY GOSPEL: FROM HYMNS TO BLACKWOOD BROTHERS

TRIBUTE TO CHRISTIAN COUNTRY

Grammy Award Nominated

Editor’s Review, CD UNIVERSE

Recording information: 2004. Among music fans, the phrase “they just don’t make records

like they used to…” ranks with the most commonly heard complaints. 20th CENTURY

GOSPEL is a record exactly like they used to make, and may be just the thing for

nostalgia-buffs looking for a touch of the old in the 21st century. Masterminded by Art

Greenhaw, latter-day leader of Western-swing pioneers the Light Crust Doughboys, the

album is a good-vibe-packed mix of Southern gospel, Nashville Sound-style country, and

instrumental guitar rock. Often sounding like the jukebox playlist from some mythical

Southwestern 1950s coffee shop, the album features a rich, reverb-drenched production

style reminiscent of Chet Atkins’s best work. Greenhaw’s manly baritone is warm and

inviting, and when backed by vocal-group legends the Jordanaires (“Gospel Woman,”

“Welcome to My World”), the resultant sound suggests the glory days of Elvis Presley and

Jim Reeves. Guitar god and former Ventures member Nokie Edwards guests on several

tracks (“Ode to Joy,” “The Great Speckled Bird”) and his sound has never been twangier. A

pristinely recorded and expertly played slice of truly American music, 20th CENTURY

GOSPEL is an uplifting work that resonates with the participants’ obvious love of making

music.

Songs:

1. Gospel Woman

2. Ode To Joy

3. I’m Ashamed If I Forget Calvary

4. Welcome To My World

5. The Great Speckled Bird

6. Lord, Take All Of Me

7. Life’s A Railway To Heaven

8. America The Beautiful

9. The Chair That Never Got Mended

10. Over The Sunset Mountains

11. Crying In The Chapel

12. America (My Country Tis Of Thee)

13. Higher Ground

14. (Bonus Song) I’d Rather Have Jesus
