Doug Sahm - It hurts to love somebody

Even if you don't remember this one as a Guitar Slim number, those ascending guitar trills give away the source instantly. Slim, real name Eddie Jones, was a New Orleans based blues singer guitarist who was worshipped by guitarists and blues fans in Southern Louisiana and South East Texas throughout the fifties. Doug Sahm was an artist who displayed a remarkable capacity for soaking up a wide variety of genres of popular music and demonstrating expertise in such genres, often within one album. Outside of a core set of enthusiastic admirers it is just this ability not to be typecast that may well have hampered his acceptance within the wider public domain. Relatively late in his career he recorded a small number of albums which concentrated on one genre or era of music. "Juke Box Music" is one of those albums. It focuses on music that was popular in the Southern US in the fifties. Much of this comes under the broad headings of R&B or doo-wop. The concept of the album is of a jukebox in that timeframe stacked to the gills with great music to dance or smooch to. Doug assembled an ace big band to interpret this music containing many musicians who'd been part of his various ventures in the past. The main musicians appearing on the album are: Doug Sahm - Vocals, Piano & Guitar Rocky Morales - Tenor Sax Charlie McBurney - Trumpet Jack Barber - Bass George Rains - Drums Addition musicians include: Wayne Bennett - Guitar Derek O'Brien - Rhythm Guitar Mel Brown - Keyboards Reese Wynans - Keyboards Randy Garibay - Vocal duet Angela Strehli - Background vocals Produced by George Rains Arrangements by Doug Sahm
