Texas Themed Hit of the Week Update

Just a plug for this week's Hit of the Week Update by guest contributor Eddie The Collector. I think it is an especially good update - and all of the recordings have a Texas connection. Eddie features hard-to-find recordings and provides interesting background information about the Jimmy Joy Orchestra, a now all-but-forgotten territory band based here in Texas. In the 1920s, it was one of the most successful and highly regarded bands in Texas and it went on to achieve a certain amount of national fame.

For the update's Extra section, Eddie features vintage recordings of college fight songs from three famous Texas institutions - SMU, UT and Texas A&M - along with interesting background information about the history of the songs.

The update is currently featured at: http://dismuke.org/how. Once the next update is posted, Eddie's update will be archived under the July 24 entry at: http://dismuke.org/how/prev7-08.html.
