I wanted to share a link with you all. It's a website we did for my Dad "Wally Moyers Sr." and his music. We recorded this album 25 years ago and completed it about six months before he passed away... On this site the family has decided to offer it as a free download.. The site also includes many great photos I think you will enjoy.. Soon we will add a book that he wrote about his music career from the 40s until 1990..
Merry Christmas! http://www.wallymoyers.com |

| Thank you Danny, I appreciate your listening.. On the "short take" on "John's Back In Town", Waylon Jennings is playing guitar with my Dad on the solo.. Thats Bill Mack singing... Dad's playing all the steel on the album except I'm playing Faded Love on the Bobs Wells medley and on the new version of "Cotton Pickin'" I play the first solo after the chorus and Lloyd Maines played the one after mine... It was a great experience doing the project for him.. Merry Christmas my friend.. |

Thank you Steve, Dan, Larry, Jim, Danny and Tim! I really appreciate your listening, it really means a lot after all these years to have you guys hear his music...
Steve I'll give you a shout when I'm back to Nashville. I'm using South Bound Customs there to do the finish work on the ResoRockers I'm building... Hopefully I'll be back a lot... |

Thanks Wally.....I met Wally in Amarillo thru Happy Jack and Helen. I was working at KZIP radio in Amarillo when Jack was hired there. Jack and Helen played for the introduction of Mountain Dew in Amarillo on a Supermarket parking lot. They used Wally on Steel and I played bass. Later on, I moved to KDAV in Lubbock and Wally got me hired at the Cotton Club with Tommy Hancock. I had forgotten just how good Wally played.......Thanks for the memories.

P.S...Do you know if Jack and Helen are still living...and where ?

Thanks again for sharing......I just spent about 1 1/2 hours on the phone with Helen.....Got a lot of catching-up done..(almost 50 years). Jack, Helen and your Dad were three of the nicest people that I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with. I can't say enough thanks for posting.

Wally,
Great video and tribute to your dad.
I spent four years at Texas Tech in the early eighties, and know the area fairly well, though I haven't been back in a long time.
Looking forward too your book, keep us posted on its release and have a Happy New Year

Thank you Craig, feel free to download the album also.. My wife is typing the book and it should be ready soon. It's very interesting , it's like going back in time the way he wrote it. Again I appreciate you visiting the site... Let me know if you're ever back in West Texas..
