Sir Douglas Quintet: 1+1+1=4 - The Return Of Doug Saldana (CD)

(Raven) 25 tracks, 2 LPs on 1 CD plus 4 rare bonus tracks!

The Sir Douglas Quintet, led by Doug Sahm, stands at a unique crossroads of Texas rock, country, blues and Tex-Mex. 1+1+1=4 / The Return Of Doug Saldaña brings together two important albums on a single CD: 1+1+1=4 from 1970 and The Return Of Doug Saldaña from 1971. The Raven release is expanded with four bonus tracks, including “Colinda”, “Linda Lou”, “Soulful Woman” and “Michoacan”, for a total of 25 tracks. The collection captures Doug Sahm’s distinctive musical world, where rock’n’roll, country, blues and Mexican influences meet naturally. From the laid-back atmosphere of 1+1+1=4 to the more Texas-rooted character of The Return Of Doug Saldaña, this is a fascinating document of one of American roots music’s most individual voices. A strong choice for Doug Sahm fans, Texas music enthusiasts and collectors of classic Americana.

Sir Douglas Quintet

Texas Tornado

The 'Doug Sahm And Band' LP was released in January 1973; by April, it was clear that it would be a commercial bust, but Atlantic had already committed to one more album. Culling three tracks from the 'And Band' sessions, Atlantic sent Sahm to Wally Heider's San Francisco studio in April to round out the second album with some small, inexpensive sessions. Sahm's champion at Atlantic, Jerry Wexler, was watching his big dream crash down with the epic failure of the Willie Nelson and Doug Sahm projects. Wexler had already left the day-to-day running of Atlantic and had relocated to Florida. His relationship with company president Ahmet Ertegun was deteriorating, and Ertegun pulled the plug on Wexler's Nashville office in September 1974. In '75, Wexler left the label he hadn't founded but had helped to create.

Drawn from the San Francisco sessions, Texas Tornado was very much in the riff-driven Tex-Mex mode that Sahm had made his own. It cried out for the accordion and horns that Atlantic wouldn't spring for. The only single pulled from the album, it didn't make a blip anywhere. Doug stuck with the name, though. When he reappeared on ABC in 1976, his band was called Sir Doug & the Texas Tornados, and in 1990 he assembled another supergroup, this one comprising himself, Augie Meyers, Freddy Fender, and Flaco Jiminez. They too were dubbed the Texas Tornados. Success remained elusive but Sahm's reputation in the fifteen years since his death has risen ever higher.
