Spade Cooley - You'll Rue The Day

Spade Cooley, whose music is heard in the film The Killer Inside Me stomped his wife to death, just like Casey Affleck did with Alba in the film. He spent some time in the can, and dropped dead of a heart attack the day he was released to perform for the policeman's benevolent society. Cooley's music though, remains an essential chapter in country music, thus gaining him the title of the King of Western Swing. Check out Swingin' The Devil's Dream here. Thanks to musictraveler.blogspot.com for the review.
