What's not to like about Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys?
Waylon was a big fan:

I grew up with the Eddie Arnold version. Dad loved the way Eddie Arnold sang.

If you ever have the chance to see The Quebe Sisters you won't be sorry. They are a talented group of Gals. I've seen them a few times at Cowboy Poetry Festivals...
