comment:

• an audience recording
• Doug on vocals if not noted.
• This is the first set only. The taper forgot to bring an extra tape for the second set......
• note from the seeder on DimeaDozen:
  THE BAND: Doug & his great Austin buddy Alvin Crow do a rock & roll oldies gig. Doug Sahm (guitar + vocals), Alvin Crow (guitar + vocals), John X. Reed (lead guitar), Speedy Sparks (bass) and Frosty Bartholomew (drums). Alvin’s normal gig is playing fiddle & singing in Alvin Crow & the Pleasant Valley Boys (western swing, C&W and old R&R standards). Speedy plays bass in the Leroi Brothers and played bass with Rocky Erickson’s late 70’s+80’s bands. Frosty has played with lots of fairly famous bands including Lee Michaels (he moved to Austin from California in the mid 80’s). The Hole In the Wall is a tiny dive on the Drag in Austin. It’s about 25’ wide x 75’ deep and holds about 60 people max (more when the fire marshall isn’t looking)!
