First of all, the title is great, and your passion for the bolero is the closest I have come to associating with the late Chelo Silva, Texas Bolero Queen."

Tommy X Rated
Sex And The Country
2005

For men only - "corn porn"

There was a time when Tommy X Hancock's music would have been considered too risque. This cd reflects a sort of liberation he's experienced with the advent of the popular television show, "Sex and The City."

Live! From The Cotton Club 1967
Lubbock, Texas
1967 (reissue)

This is a rare recording of the goings on in a west Texas dance hall in the 1960's while Tommy and Charlene Hancock were raising their family, exploring counter culture and playing music professionally.

Recorded at the Cotton Club near Lubbock Texas this recording captures an era gone by and provides a glimpse of things that were to come. Tommy Hancock was in the house band in the 1940's and 50's and rebuilt the club when it burned in the 1960's. Touring bands from Bob Wills to Little Richard - Lefty Frizzell to Elvis Presley - Porter Wagoner to Stevie Ray Vaughan made this dance club famous. Also included is an interview with Tommy Hancock at the Buddy Holly Symposium in 2001. He speaks of his memories of the music scene around Lubbock beginning in the 1940's.

BOOK
Tommy X Hancock
Copyright © 1998  Tommy X Hancock

The Book on Dancing: Zen and the Art of the Texas Two-Step

Tommy Hancock, known to some as a music legend and to others as a spiritual seer, combines base and basic - honky-tonk mentality and natural human thirst for enlightenment - with humor and grace through dance.

When Tommy X Hancock quit playing fiddle and bandleading he "changed art forms and began dancing". This book includes his perspective as a musician, male audience member and, most importantly, a free spirit.

If you know anything about the band in any of its incarnations, you know that the dance is the thing. The ultimate honor you can give to a band is to feel the music in your body and let it move you. Tommy X Hancock has laid bare the obstacles to participation by educating the...shall we say..."unmoved" to the joy of the dance. He does it by revealing the simplicity of the act and suggesting the underlying motivations (which are vast). Needless to say it becomes clear that we all have a reason to skittle across the floor once in a while if not everyday. Since, in general, women are more willing to dance without provocation (and because you write what you know), this book is written to men, but women will also find it useful...or at least amusing. This makes a great gift with a couple of CDs.

It takes a truly creative mind to put together a musical photo album. This 25-song labor of love was compiled from 50 years worth of recordings Charlene Hancock, the 'Main Dame', has lent her soulful voice to. While listening to how much has changed since the earliest pieces (wax recordings from 1952) through her years with the Roadside Playboys and on to the recent past, you know that this is just the tip of the iceberg.
