FIDDLIN' MAN: The Life and Times of BOB WILLS
'Fiddlin' Man' is an excellent documentary that charts the career of a legend… Anyone who's a fan of genuine country music will want to get a look at 'Fiddlin' Man'; it's a documentary that's long overdue.--Philip Van Vleck, Spectator MagazineThis black-and-white/color documentary does justice to the story of the big-hearted, fiddle-playing founder of Western swing… Especially good is music footage from the Playboys' heyday… To his credit, filmmaker Rhodes doesn't sanitize Wills and lets the viewer know about the Western swing legend's big thirst for alcohol.--Frank-John Hadley, Down Beat MagazineWe should acknowledge that some truly hot Jazz was played by guys with cowboy hats on... previous band-members contribute intriguing stories about their former employer… and show just why Wills was one of the world's most popular entertainers during his heyday.--Cadence Magazine
