Title: Will Have To Do Until The Real Thing Comes Along
Review: I bought this CD only because it was the only place to find most of the material from Doug's 1973 Atlantic recording Doug Sahm and The Band. That album featured the likes of David Bromberg, David "Fathead" Newman, Flaco Jiminez, Dr John and the infamous Robert Zimmerman. With a cast of legends such as this, it was nearly impossible to live up to the hype. However, I think that session produced more than it's share of standouts. Faded Love, San Antoine, Dealer's Blues and Dylan's great composition Wallflower are all praiseworthy.I did find a copy of Doug Sahm and The Band reissued on the Edsel label. So it's out theresomewhere. Until then, look to this Rhino collection to fill in the gaps.
