Bob Wills Vinyl LP Albums

James Robert Wills (March 6, 1905 – May 13, 1975) was an American Western swing musician, songwriter, and bandleader. Considered by music authorities as the founder of Western swing, he was known widely as the King of Western Swing (although Spade Cooley self-promoted the moniker "King of Western Swing" from 1942 to 1969).
Wills formed several bands and played radio stations around the South and West until he formed the Texas Playboys in 1934. In 1940, Wills, along with the Texas Playboys, co-starred with Tex Ritter in Take Me Back to Oklahoma. Altogether, Wills appeared in nineteen films, including The Lone Prairie (1942), Riders of the Northwest Mounted (1943), Saddles and Sagebrush (1943), The Vigilantes Ride (1943), The Last Horseman (1944), Rhythm Round-Up (1945), Blazing the Western Trail (1945), and Lawless Empire (1945).

Unplayed Record or sealed

NM

Near Mint

Near perfect, probably played only a few times.

VG+

Very Good Plus

Vinyl in a really good shape with only superficial signs of use
that don't affect play. Only well cared for records will grade
out to VG+. Will satisfy all but the most demanding collector.

VG

Very Good

A used, reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear
and the possibility of light surface noise between tracks or
during quiet passages, but still quite nice.

G+

Good Plus

In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down
(Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up records.
