texas tornado

Composed of sessions recorded in New York for 'Doug Sahm and Band' and newer sessions recorded in Northern California by Wally Heider, 'Texas Tornado' went more in an R&B direction on side one, and then veered wildly (as was Doug's custom) to more rock and Tex-Mex on side two. Too, it was even more of a commercial flop than its predecessor, yet its reliance on original material—Sahm penned eight of the 11 songs—make this a favorite album among many of his fans. Includes 'San Francisco FM Blues; Someday; Blue Horizon; Tennessee Blues; Ain't That Loving You; Texas Tornado; Juan Mendoza; Chicano; I'll Be There; Hard Way', and 'Nitty Gritty'. From 1973.
