Startex Records announced the arrival of Jake Hooker’s latest CD, “Lost Along The Way”. As with Jake’s past CDs, this new CD is 12 of the most traditional, honky-tonk, fiddle and steel songs and is probably Jake’s best to date.
Those of you who have attended Jake’s dances will recognize many favorites including the title cut, Lost Along The Way, It’s Warm With Love In Here and the much requested Rodeo Man.
Western Swing legends Leon Rausch and Jody Nix join Jake on the vocals for two swing classics, Talkin’ ‘Bout You and You’re From Texas, written by the immortal Cindy Walker.
The musicians feature an all-star cast, starting with the great Bob Moore on upright bass (the all-time most recorded session man in Nashville) and the great veteran guitarist Pete Wade who cut his musical teeth on the Ray Price Cherokee Cowboys bandstand.
On acoustic guitar is the fantastic Jimmy Capps, whom many if you have doubtless seen playing guitar on the Wilburn Brothers television show for many years.
The piano work is done by the A-Team legend Hargus “Pig” Robbins who has played on most of the hit records recorded in Nashville.
Grammy award winner Bobby Flores does his usual best-in-the-world fiddle playing and can be heard on all of Jake’s other CDs.
Nashville’s most in-demand steel guitarist Paul Franklin plays steel and will knock you out!
Our good friend Amber Digby, a solo recording artist in her own right, sings vocal backup. Rounding out the vocal accompaniment is Jake’s dad Tommy Hooker, also a terrific solo vocalist and band leader.
