Oscar Wills was a guitarist & songwriter from Louisiana who made the well known imigration to the West Coast for a better life in the mid 1950's working as a full time TV repairman & part time musician. Both Little Junior Parker & Albert Collins covered his tunes. Even though his recordings were released on a poor sounding release about 10 years ago, this is the first comprehensive collection of T.V. Slim’s recordings in great fidelity. Many of these sides are as rare as unicorns’ manure, a great number of them having never previously appeared in the digital format.
