Dan Hicks & The Hot Licks-Canned Music

Dan Hicks & The Hot Licks-Canned Music
Here's a blast from the past. I don't think I've even heard mention of these guys since I left Texas back around 1985. They were great. Borepatch reminded me. He notes that it's a little hard to slot Señor Hicks into any particular genre. Wikipedia expands on this:

Writing about Hicks for Oxford American in 2007, critic David Smay said, "[T]here was a time from the ’20s through the ’40s when swing—'hot rhythm'—rippled through every form of popular music. That’s the music Dan Hicks plays, and there’s no single word for it because it wasn’t limited to any one genre. Django Reinhardt and the Mills Brothers and Spade Cooley and Hank Garland and the Boswell Sisters and Stuff Smith and Bing Crosby all swing. You can make yourself nutty trying to define what Dan Hicks is. Then again, you could just say: Dan Hicks swings."
