Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era 1965-1968 [Box]

Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era 1965-1968 [Box] (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Compiled by rock critic and future Patti Smith Group guitarist Lenny Kaye, 1972's Nuggets was the anthology responsible for reviving interest in mid-'60s American garage rock. After the proliferation of specialized volumes with the Nuggets title by reissue label Rhino, this four-CD box set is intended as the ideal summation/expansion of the ...

Mendocino

Mendocino (1969) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

Chart success for the title song led to a hurried release for this band's second album, although perhaps the most famous song, "She's About a Mover, originated a few years prior with another version. Listeners will probably be more familiar with the version heard here, the one with the freaky feedback guitar solo and fake fadeout that oldies disc ...

The Best of Doug Sahm & the Sir Douglas Quintet 1968-1975

The Best of Doug Sahm & the Sir Douglas Quintet 1968-1975 (1990) more music like this

by Doug Sahm & The Sir Douglas Quintet

Doug Sahm once sang, "You just can't live in Texas if you don't have a lot of soul," and, as a proud son of the Lone Star state, he seemed bent on proving that every time he stepped in front of a microphone. Whether he was playing roots rock, garage punk, blues, country, norteņo, or (as was often the case) something that mixed up several of the ...

Sir Douglas Quintet Is Back!

Sir Douglas Quintet Is Back! (2000) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

This and Beat Rocket's companion reissue of the 1966 The Best of Sir Douglas Quintet album seem to gather most or all of what the group recorded for Tribe in the mid-'60s. Seems simple enough, but it's cause for rejoicing among '60s collectors, considering that this back catalog had somehow eluded the marketplace for more than 30 years prior to ...

Texas Fever: Best of Sir Douglas Quintet

Texas Fever: Best of Sir Douglas Quintet (1998) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

This is one killer collection, with great sound and an impeccable selection of tracks -- the only thing that AIM Records doesn't make clear on the outside of the packaging is that it's made up of live performances and re-recordings of various relatively recent vintages, rather than the Sir Douglas Quintet's original 1960s material. That said, it ...

Sir Douglas Quintet + 2 = Honkey Blues [Bonus Tracks]

Sir Douglas Quintet + 2 = Honkey Blues [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

It is hard to believe that this is the first entry in the extensive Sir Douglas Quintet discography, as it seems like the kind of experimental venture an artist might throw out after a handful of successful albums have already been released. The eclectic nature of bandleader Doug Sahm is undisputed, but this has got to be his album with the most ...

Live from Austin, Texas

Live from Austin, Texas (2006) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

The Sir Douglas Quintet may have began life as an admirably nervy attempt by Doug Sahm and producer Huey P. Meaux to crash the Top 40 with a band of Texas rock & rollers during the height of the British Invasion, but Sahm's wide-ranging musical tastes would move in a single direction for only so long. With time, the enthusiastic Tex-Mex garage ...

Live Texas Tornado

Live Texas Tornado (1983) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

In the 1960s and early '70s, no band better illustrated the richness of the Texas musical experience than the Sir Douglas Quintet. Lead singer Doug Sahm and his friends could almost always be counted on for versatility, and they could usually be counted on to cook. A 1998 reissue, Live Texas Tornado is a gem-filled CD that boasts classic live ...

She's About a Mover: The Best of Crazy Cajun Recording

She's About a Mover: The Best of Crazy Cajun Recording (1999) more music like this

by Doug Sahm & the Sir Douglas Quintet

This differs from Music Club's package in that this set also includes tracks issued as Doug Sahm solo sides, giving us a time frame between 1964 and 1977 to hear Sahm's art unfold. Of course, the early SDQ sides are the big ticket here. Rough and raw, they include the two big hits "She's About a Mover" and "The Rains Came." Yet the solo sides that ...

Fifty Years of Country Music from Mercury (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is a fair collection, as far as giving us an overview of Mercury Records' country releases from its very first year of operation. The first notable voice heard here is Don Gibson, as a member of the Sons of the Soil; in this company, Flatt & Scruggs' "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" is practically a piece of progressive music, and would be wholly ...

60's Rock Hits [Rebound] (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

Rebound's 60's Rock Hits is almost what it says it is. A more accurate title might have been 60's Rock Songs, since many of these nine songs (eight on cassette) weren't exactly hits, and many aren't exactly "rock," either. Nevertheless, the featured songs -- including the Moody Blues' "Tuesday Afternoon," the Sir Douglas Quintet's "Mendocino," the ...

Day Dreaming at Midnight (1994) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

Those familiar with the music of Doug Sahm know he has his hard rocking side, especially in the context of the Sir Douglas Quintet. For example, take a cut such as "Baby It Just Don't Matter" from the Mendocino album, which rocks almost as hard as a Jimi Hendrix track. Nonetheless, even albums by the quintet are known for an eclectic mix of rock, ...

The Best of the Sir Douglas Quintet [Sundazed/Beat Rocket] (2000) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

A more or less straight-up reissue of the group's Tribe album. When producer Huey Meaux released this disc in 1966, he probably though it was the end of the group, as they had hadn't hit the Top 40 in almost a year and a drug bust decimated their ranks. Cobbled together from their 1965 sessions, this brings together "She's About a Mover," "The ...

If you need a CD of the Sir Douglas Quintet blasting through a set of R&B and blues standards, this collection's right up your alley. Culled from various albums and B-sides, the set list includes "Mr. Pitiful," "I'll Go Crazy," "Night Train," "Please Please Please," "Kansas City," "Stagger Lee," "The Things That I Used to Do," and "Turn on Your ...

Prime of Sir Douglas Quintet: The Best of the Tribe Recordings (2004) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

In case Westside's single CD Best of the Sir Douglas Quintet wasn't good or full enough for you, the label has issued this two-hour-long, double-disc 41-song compilation, drawn from their 1964-66 output on Tribe Records, with sides dating from the 1977 catalog-spanning album Tracker. The convergence of influences is fascinating, a meld of some ...

Chartbusters USA, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Conceived as a counterpart to Golden Age of American Rock'n'Roll, Ace's excellent anthology series covering the first decade of U.S. rock, Chartbusters USA does the same thing for American rock spanning 1964-69. It's perhaps less valuable than the Golden Age series because the material anthologized, at least to judge by the first installment, is ...

1+1+1=4 [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

The Sir Douglas Quintet delivered two excellent records back to back in Mendocino and Together After Five, but success was hard to come by, and it was hard to tell what path was the right one for a band as talented and fuzzily focused as this. Their fourth Mercury/Smash record, 1970's 1+1+1=4 didn't solve that puzzle and by trying to touch on a ...

The Return of Doug Saldaņa [Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this

by The Sir Douglas Quintet

Since the Sir Douglas Quintet's records were so consistently satisfying and worked such a similar territory -- a loose-limbed, freewheeling eclecticism that encompassed rock & roll, blues, country, and R&B in unequal measures at varying times -- it can be hard drawing distinctions between their records. Certainly, there was a leap in quality and ...

While the rest of the titles in Polygram's Ultimate Driving Collection are spiced up with phrases like "Traffic Jammin'" and "Highway Rockin'," this installment needs just one word to get its point across: California. While the goofy miracle-of-computers artwork splicing a highway into a surfer on his wave is nearly unforgivable, the comp does ...

Initially released in 1976, The Tracker is one of many recyclings of the Sir Douglas Quintet's recordings for Huey P. Meaux's Tribe label. While there are two tracks ("Hot Tomato Man," "Image of Me") that didn't show up on either of their original Tribe releases -- their debut, The Best of the Sir Douglas Quintet, and its follow-up, The Sir ...

Takoma Eclectic Sampler (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

The Takoma label is most famed for its series of releases by John Fahey (the company's owner in its early days) in the '60s, but issued a fairly diverse catalog of roots-oriented music up through the '80s. That very diversity, however, ensures that a sampler such as this, which has 17 tracks recorded for Takoma between 1964 and 1987, is all over ...
