sir douglas.... yeah!!!!

I want to thank the original band members who helped make a great memory for me....I was in 9th grade and maybe 14 or 15 when the Sir Douglas Quintet played at The Rocking Castle in Boise, Idaho in the 60's. She's About a Mover was on the charts, and I was nuts about the song! The dances that were popular at the time were the "skate", and the "Jerk". I finagled my way backstage to meet the band and was welcomed. I was a starry-eyed teen and was smitten with the SDQ! They were very gentlemanly with me. I was able to engage with Doug and a few other band members. I was a budding musician/ keyboardist, and had just acquired a Vox keyboard, just like the one they used on "She's About A Mover". I played by ear and learned organ riffs with ease...and I was thrilled to get tips on playing it. I am still playing, but on a Korg Trinity...best synth ever! Heaven would be to relive nights like that one. And thanks to the "newer" band members who keep the music alive and true to form.! God Bless!

One of a kind legends That needs To be dealt with yet As time goes on

The first time I ever went to a concert was in 1965 when I was 15. The headliners were the Sir Douglas Quintet and Little Richard - what an ass-kickin' that was!

I'm from Canada. He was a great musician. I watched him in the 1960s and loved all his songs. He made Texas proud. God Bless him and his family. Amen.

Doug Sahm was one of the great leaders and frontmen of all time. Energy, charisma, talent, and too much fun.

This song was a huge part of the soundtrack to my childhood. Thanks to my old man, I was raised on real music. God bless Sir Douglas v

I remember my dad's friend playing these guys and Freddie Fender while working on his '56 Ford in the backyard and thinking this was the coolest band I had ever heard!! I still play them on a daily basis! Great music only comes around once in a lifetime! Thank you for sharing!!

What a great band! It ended way too soon. The innovator, Doug Sahm, as well as all the musical collaborations he was involved in, are unique and missed so much. Hi daughter. Your dad is remembered with respect and love. Take care.

The Talent on this stage is awesome; I can and do listen to them (Doug Sahm, Freddy Fender, Augie, Flaco, et al)all the time for the past 50+ years.

they were a great live group..saw them a couple of times and was never disappointed, even the time Flaco was really wasted..i mean REALLY wasted..didn't matter much..

I must be from the dark ages. I never knew Freddy died. And I'm new to the Tornados music. So glad I came across it! Love it!!!!

My dad worked at a music store from the mid60s to the 70s and he brought home a lot of promotional albums, and we had one of Mendocino. He used to play it once in a while but he worked a lot and even when I was home with my mom at eight years old I was putting the album on because it just sounded so groovy to me. This song is my favorite of theirs. What an awesome performance, Doug never lost that booming voice

These guys truly were a supergroup God bless. Freddy Fender and Doug sahm

Very true

I read in Freddy Fender's biography (written by his daughter Tammy) that he started playing guitar and singing in bars in his hometown area for extra money. He was also big in rock and roll and the Blues, before he was talked into recording country in Before the Last Tear drop falls.

A belated.. Very Happy 82nd Birthday Leonardo "Flaco" Jiménez. March 11, 1939, San Antonio, TX "Siempre estarás en nuestros corazones"..

September 2019 - but I feel like I'm in the late 1960's. RIP Sir Doug.

So nice to see Freddie smiling!

My understanding is the record companies in the 60's wanted the "british invasion" sound, and so "Sir Douglas Quintet" became the name of the band. but the licks are all TX but what the hell I was only 14 at the time, I didn't know the difference til I moved to TX in 1970

It was so much fun watching and listening to you guys. You all seemed to enjoy one another. Thanks for the joy, the music and the memories.

Doug was an incredible talent.

Big fan of these guys…Doug was living in my old home town for a few years in the ‘80’s, while recording with Stony Plain Records. We caught him at a local venue with the Formerly Brothers; Doug, Amos Garrett & Larry Taylor. Doug was also a surprise guest for Bob Dylan’s encore, including the opening, Tracy Chapman. Early ‘90’s, saw both Augie & Larry, backing John Hammond on his Wicked Grin Tour. Flaco’s an especially gifted virtuoso & favourite of mine. ❤

voz di Bonaire.comnda Dushi - in 2005. He was in his 70's as was Doug Sahm when he passes on. They had fairly long lives. Neither died tragically young. Check out Freddy's beautiful monument at his final resting place (on this earth). I hope he's at the eternal banquet, partying in heaven seeing the Face of God!

Doug can play anything with strings on it

Love these guys!

I was such a fan of SDQ back in the 60s. I never imagined we would be living in the Lone Star State so many years later. Great Talent on thiis stage. Augie Meyers is one of my friends since we met several years ago. If you haven't heard "Hey Baby Que Paso" by Augie, go look for it.

One of my favorite songs, two of my favorite entertainers!

C'est un régal de vous écouter.

No one in this world can copy these guys, sorry it's not going to happen,these guys are the original

Lucky to see them at Gruene Hall in New Braunfels. What a great crowd and vibe. Love them all. Stars in their own right. Amazing American/Texas/San Antonio collaboration. Love forever

The only argument against this great-sounding song from 1965 is that it is obviously a blend of two previous hit records: Ray Charles' "What'd I Say" from 1959 and The Beatles' "She's a Woman" from Nov. 1964. The story goes that Doug Sahm and his producer Huey Meaux holed up in a motel room for a weekend and listened to Beatles albums over and over until they figured out the formula. They took it one step further and renamed their band The Sir Douglas Quintet to cash in on the popularity of British Invasion groups, even wearing Beatle-style wigs when they played this song on Shindig and similar U.S. TV shows.

I think that about a lot of videos. I think there are a group of people (or maybe bots) that just dislike every video on the planet. And of course there are those people who wake up in a bad mood and want to take everyone else down that rabbit hole with them. Those are the kind of people I used to throw out of my retail business on a regular basis with a warning to never return.
