Spade Cooley

Post by Rick Jolley »

My son (accordionista Tim Zahn) just pointed out this wonderful feature on YouTube.

So, can anyone ID some of the players (besides Spade)

There is a really neat looking twin-necked Ricky.

_Shame on you_, the movie about Spade (starring Dennis Quade) is in pre-production, scheduled out next year. Read that here:

Sounds really interesting. Any comments?

Rick, Thanks so much for the post. Thats stuff I have never seen. Wade Ray always told me what a great band Spade had and I have a few recordings but to watch this was wonderful. What a talent he was. Thanks again, Bobby

Of course the singer on "Trouble with you" is the one and only Tex Williams who later on had his own band and was quite popular in the Swing world too.
