Hank Thompson and His Brazos Valley Boys

The Brazos Valley Boys, was voted the top Country Western Band for 14 years in a row by Billboard. The primary difference between The Brazos Valley Boys music and that of Bob Wills was that Hank Thompson, who used the swing beat and instrumentation to enhance his vocals, discouraged the intense instrumental soloing from his musicians that Bob Wills encouraged; however, the "Hank Thompson sound" exceeded Bob Wills in Top 40 country hits.
