DESCRIPTION:
Doug Sham sings with Sir Douglas Quintet on 1984 LP "Rio Medina".

Recorded in Austin with Kenny Denton producing, 1984's "Rio Medina" was almost as impressive as the previous Sonet set "Midnight Sun". With Sahm responsible for the majority of the eleven tracks, musically the set offered up a mixture of styles including standard boogie ('San Antonio Boogie'), Tex-Mex (ue Paso'), country-rock (the beautiful ballad 'Never Be a Saint') and patented Vox Continental propelled rockers ('Everybody Gets Lonely Sometimes'). Seldom sounding as comfortable and enthusiastic, Sahm was in good form throughout.
