Description
Summary:	Sir Doug and the Genuine Texas Cosmic Groove tells the story of Doug Sahm, the wild man musician's musician and unsung hero of Texas music. A country music child prodigy and teenage rhythm and blues dynamo who caused a riot at his San Antonio high school, Sahm emerged as an international rock star leading the Sir Douglas Quintet. Doug landed in San Francisco just in time for the Summer of Love, and he returned to Texas as a cowboy hippie rocker who built the music scene in Austin before forming a Tex-Mex super group, The Texas Tornados. A kinetic, quirky character with a solid sense of place as well as an innate wanderlust, Doug Sahm's story is the story of Texas music.
