BOBBY G. RICE – Down In Texas

BOBBY G. RICE

Down In Texas
     This is one of those one-song releases, directed
almost entirely toward disc jockeys around the world.  This remarkable
‘new’ marketing technique is a development of Alan Karls’ work with
Century II Records.  For me it’s the beginning of a ‘new’ way to get
classic and traditional country music back.  You might remember Bobby
Rice’s big hit (some time ago) “You Lay So Easy On My Mind” which
launched his country music career.  We inducted him into America’s Old
Time Country Music Hall of Fame while we were still in Missouri Valley.
Here he is again, with a song written by Iowa’s own Robbie Wittkowski,
Little Jimmy Dickens, and Bobby as well.  This new ‘system’ is how ‘new’
thinking is getting this music played.  This is a super song, well
written and well played.  Western-Swing and a little honky-tonk for
flavor makes it an instant ‘listen-to’ because it’s fun, it’s good, it
mentions Austin, and it’s marketable.  Something is happening with
musicians too, Bobby Flores is playing fiddle (didn’t we just see him at
Wahoo), and Jim Loessberg is producer and engineer, all the way around
absolutely terrific.  More more more more!
