  • Texas Gold is the third album by American country band Asleep at the Wheel. Produced by Tommy Allsup primarily at Jack Clement Studios in Nashville, Tennessee, it was released in August 1975 as the group's first album on Capitol Nashville. The album was the band's first commercial success, charting on the US Billboard 200 and reaching the top ten of the Top Country Albums chart. Lead single "The Letter That Johnny Walker Read" also reached the Hot Country Songs top ten. For the third consecutive album, Asleep at the Wheel changed record labels for Texas Gold. After former label Epic Records (which issued Asleep at the Wheel in 1974) rejected three demo recordings, the group signed with Columbia Records in June 1975. Recording took place that month, primarily (for all but two songs) at Jack Clement Studios. Texas Gold was the band's first album to feature fiddler Danny Levin and drummer Scott Hennige, and the only release with saxophonist Ed Vizard. Texas Gold was a critical and commercial success. The band's first album to chart domestically, it peaked at number 7 on the Billboard Top Country Albums Chart and number 136 on the Billboard 200. All three of the record's singles reached the Hot Country Songs top 40, including "The Letter That Johnny Walker Read" which peaked at number 10. The album was praised by critics and received a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. (en)
