Tom Morrell & the Timewarp Tophands
The "How the West Was Swung" Series

Vol 1: How the West Was Swung

"How The West Was Swung" is the long overdue first album by one of the most exciting and inventive steel guitarists - and one of the instrument's great unsung heroes - Tom Morrell. It's a varied, knockout program of western swing by a red-hot, star-studded Western Swing band.

Although he has played professionally for nearly forty years and despite such honors as his 1988 induction into the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame, Tom Morrell has remained relatively obscure. Certainly, he isn't as well known outside of musician's circles as his talents merit (When I first saw Tom play live, with Leon Rausch sometime in the late 80's, I thought "Wow - this guy is great. Who is he?"). Hopefully, this recording will go some way toward correcting that. But Tom probably wasn't worrying too much about that when he was recording this album. He was probably thinking about making some great music. He has!
