Instruction given in traditional Scottish set Asleep at the Wheel Turns in Good-Tune Music "Miles and Miles ol Texas," and "Route the musicians poke fun at themselves and the road life they lead.

Asleep at the Wheel is currently working on its 10th allium at a studio near Austin. The record is being co produced by Ray Benson and Willie Nelson, and Willie sings on a couple of tunes And of course there are a couple of Boh Wilis tunes. Benson has done some soundtrack work over the years and recently scored the music for the movie "Liar's Moon," starring Matt Dillon and I Ioyt Axton, frequently scheduled on HBO Benson wrote 12 songs for the soundtrack and the Wheel performed some of them. Benson most recently had a small acting part a movie being made by Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson. Called "Songwriter," it is set for early spring release.

John Florence, who has studied journalism and worked in radio for 10 years as an announcer, music director and program director, covers popular music regularly for the Journal. tradition was maintained "by adding blues-based big band jazz lines to the hopped-up dance ballads of the Southwest during the Benson told Vnvnheaf magazine in 1976. "Bob Wills created the first fusion music out of the elements of popular but dissimilar styles." Benson continued, "There wouldn't be no rock n' roll bands if there hadn't been Bob Wills. There wouldn't be no country-western bands without Bob Wills. VVaylon Jennings, Buddy Holly, the Big Hopper, Roy Orbison, all those people were West Texas kids who grew up listening to Bob Wills, and because of him went out to do rock 'n' roll." With tunes like Wills' "Take Me Back to Tulsa," Louis Jordan's "Choo Choo Oh" Boogie," and Count Basie's "1 O'CTock Jump," an evening with Asleep at the Wheel reflects a truly American jumpin' jazz flavor.

And as the name indicates, this band takes nothing too seriously for too long. With songs like "(Ain't Nobody Here) But Us Chickens," NICOLE, in 'i tjU SAMPLES SECONDS OF I If HAND PAINTED SILK DRESSES I JlrA FOR ALL SEASONS' Cjggfea, SAli Continued From C-l 14, just before that madhouse burned to the ground. "We've played there (Albuquerque) since l'71. There used to be a bar in I'lacitas, the Thunderbird Bar," said Benson. In those days Asleep at the Wheel was played on country radio and progressive rock stations.

Hay Benson formed Asleep at the Wheel in luns in West Virginia. In 1972, the band moved to California for a couple of years, eventually landing in Austin, Texas, which band members have called home since late 197.3. Over the past 10 years Austin has developed a worldwide reputation as an oasis of original music western swing, rockabilly, country rock and nuevo wavo, all mixed into a Texas kettle. But the Wheelers are rarely heard on their hometown radio these days. "The status of radio has really taken a dive, unfortunately.

It used to be a very venturesome town for radio back when KOKE was a 'progressive country' station. Now it's basically hits and hits and hits and hits." Of the original lineup, Benson and female vocalist Chris O'Connell remain. Billy Cochran is the most recent addition on fiddle. The rest of the group consists of bassist Tom Anastasio; pianist Falkner "Boogie Woogie Bob" Evans; pedal steel player Wally Murphy; drummer Richard Hormacha and saxophonist Michael Francis. Like a torch held high, Kay Benson and Asleep at the Wheel have carried the tradition of western swing music (created in the 1930s by Bob Wills) into the 80s.
