dbo:abstract
  • The Sir Douglas Quintet was an American rock band, active in the mid 1960s and 1970s with reunions amongst various members in the 1980s and 1990s. Despite their British-sounding name, they were from San Antonio, Texas. With their first hits, they were acclaimed in their home state. However, once their career was established (subsequent to working with Texas record-producer Huey Meaux), the band relocated to the West Coast. Their move coincided with the burgeoning San Francisco psychedelic rock scene of the mid 1960s to early 1970s. Overall, the quintet were exponents of good-times music with strong roots in blues and Texas-regional traditions.
