DOUG SAHM - TEXAS RADIO AND THE BIG BEAT

The late great Doug Sahm was born in San Antonio, Texas. He was a child prodigy in country music but became a significant figure in roots rock and other genres as well. Sahm is considered one of the most important figures in what is identified as Tex-Mex music. Proficient on multiple instruments, he was the founder and leader of the 1960s rock and roll band, the Sir Douglas Quintet. He would later co-found the Texas Tornados with Augie Meyers, Freddy Fender, and Flaco Jiménez as well as Los Super Seven. This two CD set features music from Sahm's heyday solo years. Disc one is a live show originally broadcast by KUT in Austin Texas in 1973 and the second disc is a Tex-Mex set recorded at The Liberty Hall in Houston in 1974.
