Augie Meyers, organist for the Sir Douglas Quintet and Texas Tornados, age 85.

She’s About A Mover is one of rock’s greatest early tunes, not least because of the insanely simple and elegant organ riff. The late Doug Sahm (Sir Douglas himself) and Augie were from just down the road in San Antonio, and they were entwined with Texas roots music for their entire careers. RIP

I made my usual raid on bandcamp on Friday, and purchased a few items including Fas by Breabach (preparing myself for them at Cropredy, as I haven't heard them before), Solstice's recent remaster of Silent Dance, their 1984 debut, fieldlily's debut EP Grow (another Cropredy connection - they are 2/3 of Wildwood Kin, who played some years ago) and another new release from Andy Latimer of Camel - The Road Home. He has been releasing a number of pieces on Bandcamp in the last months.  I'd love to see Camel at Cropredy one day...


How's the Silent Dance sound - different/better?  Not sure if we'll see Camel out there again, but it's a nice thought.

Country Joe left us yesterday aged 84.

RIP Country Joe McDonald - his headline set on the Thursday night at Cropredy 2005 with his band (basically Country Joe & The Fish without Barry Melton) was a magical experience.

“You know what we need for our wedding? Some original-written songs about heartbreak and betrayal…
Take a break from the doom scrolling and look at this.

As it's Bandcamp Friday I've made a couple of purchases. Outsider by Findlay Napier and Conversations We've Had Before by the Eliza Carthy Trio which I'm currently listening to.

Just booked - The Guess Who (Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman, together again) at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, August!

I've seen them separately, but never together, and never as "The Guess Who." I bought the Meet-and-Greet so I can personally express my gratitude to my neighbors to the north!
