SALES NOTES "People said they didn't watch country music on TV (but) when it came to Saturday night and 'Town Hall Party,' Beverly Hills would have their eyes on it. A lot of my studio calls came from somebody watching it and seeing me there." Joe Maphis 1981 Joe Maphis's presence on 'Town Hall Party' made him a guitar legend. As the show's bandleader, his dazzling, flamboyant work was prominent behind other acts and in his frequent solo spots. Watching 'Town Hall,' Ozzie Nelson decided to recruit Joe to back his son Ricky on his first, pre-James Burton Imperial sessions. THP brought Joe studio work including film soundtracks for films like 'Thunder Road' and 'God's Little Acre.' Maphis's THP performances inspired countless rockabilly and surf guitar innovators including surf guitar godfather Dick Dale. Joe's tutelage made Larry Collins of the Collins Kids a phenomenal guitarist in his own right. Now, you can see why the Hollywood elite flocked to Joe. This is Maphis at his wildest, using his doubleneck Mosrite guitar as a musical Uzi. Taken from September 1958 to December, 1959 performances (the show went off the air in 1960) the 21 performances feature: • Maphis favorites Fire On the Strings, Katy Warren Breakdown and live versions of his Columbia recordings of Moonshot and Short Recess.

Specht ProducedSlim Willet bydecked The Berkeley out in his ‘Stars’Electronic outfit. Press, Courtesy 2009 Joe W. Specht. 1 Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 9 [2009], Iss. 1, Art. 4 “Don’t Let the Stars Get in Your Eyes”: Slim Willet’s Idiosyncratic Chart-Topper Lives on In the fall of 1952, and well on into 1953, the nation’s radio airwaves and jukeboxes were filled with the sound of “Don’t Let the Stars Get in Your Eyes.” The song, penned by Abilene disc jockey Slim Willet, was all the rage with four different versions in Billboard’s Country & Western Top 10. On Billboard’s Pop chart, Perry Como took the song to Number 1, selling over one million copies. Willet, born Winston Lee Moore on December 1, 1919, in Victor, Texas, (western Erath County), began his radio career in the late 1940s at Abilene’s Hardin-Simmons University. While working as student manager of KHSU, the school radio station, Moore adopted the pseudonym “Slim,” because he was anything but slender. He took Willet from the Willets, characters in 37 his favorite comic strip Out Our Way. After graduating from Hardin-Simmons in 1949, Slim went to work for Abilene radio station KRBC. He also wrote songs, and in 1950, he recorded one of his signature tunes, “I’m a Tool Pusher from Snyder,” for Dallas-based Star Talent Records.

(Jerry Lee Lewis) 1 You see, I was always a well-endowed girl, and the guys used to tell me that they didn't know how to fit a 42 into a 331!3. (Sun Records artist Barbara Pittman ) 2 Female artists just don't really sell. (Capital Records producer Ken Nelson) 3 In the opening scene of the 199 3 film True Romance (directed by Tony Scott from a script by Quentin Tarantino), Clarence Worly (Christian Slater) perches on a stool in an anonymous, rundown bar. Addressing his com­ ments to no one in particular, he soliloquises about 'the King'. Simply put, he asserts, in Jailhouse Rock (19 5 7), Elvis embodied everything that rocka­ billy is about. 'I mean', he states, 'he is rockabilly. Mean, surly, nasty, rude. In that movie he couldn't give a fuck about nothin' except rockin' and rollin' and livin' fast and dyin' young and leavin' a good lookin' corpse, you know.' As he continues, Clarence's admiration for Elvis transcends mere identification with the performer's public image. He adds, 'Man, Elvis looked good. Yeah, I ain't no fag, but Elvis, he was prettier than most women, most women.' He now acknowledges the presence on the barstool next to him of a blank-faced, blonde young woman. Unconcerned that his overheard thoughts might have disturbed her, he continues, 'I always said if I had to fuck a guy - had to if my life depended on it - I'd 137 DAVID SANJEK THE WILD,~ WOMEN OF ROCK~BILLY fuck Elvis.'

Staged every Saturday in a theatre in Compton, a suburb of Los Angeles, the stage was made up to look like an old barn, thus continuing the traditions of the various live shows that were first heard on the radio airwaves three decades earlier. Although Nashville was fast establishing itself as the commercial home of country music, the West Coast had a vast, ready audi- ence for such a show. The area had first become the new home for the Dust Bowl migrants of the 1930s and, a few years later during the war years, a further influx was made up of workers seeking jobs in the munitions and defence plants. These were all people who loved country music and, consequently, a brand new country scene was born with its own sound, artists, clubs, re- cord labels, radio shows and, in due course, television programmes. 'Town Hall Party' was created with its own cast of regular performers and musicians, boasting a house that was virtually a 'who's who' of the West Coast scene comprising such as Joe Maphis, Merle Travis, Skeets McDonald, Johnny Bond and Tommy Duncan. Jay Stewart (who later hosted the TV quiz show 'Let's Make A Deal'), and Tex Ritter were the MCs.
