Day of the Doug
Son Voltās latest record, Day of the Doug, revisits the music of legendary Texas troubadour Doug Sahm. But itās much more than fond remembrance and colorful tribute. It is a summoning and a celebration of a songwriter
and performer whose work forged country, Tex-Mex, rock, rhythm and blues, folk, and psychedelia into an utterly unique American sound. Sahmās 50-year career was a restless and relentless quest for the Holy Grail of āthe groove.ā He played pedal steel with Hank Williams, Sr. as a kid before making three Top 40 hits with the Sir Douglas Quintet and recording a dizzying array of solo works with a passel of shifting personas on a carousel of record labels. Son Voltās eleventh release since 1995ās Trace steps confidently on the trails Sahm blazed. Like any journey to find a grail, Day of the Doug also seeks out all the things that make young artists fall in love with making music in the first place: adventure, youth novelty, and a chance to snatch a bit of immortality.
