The Texas Tornados are going to by playing at Plaza Palomino in Tucson, 8:00 p.m., October 16th. This super Tejano group was formed in 1990. With the death of original group members, Doug Sahm in 1999 and Freddy Fender in 2006, most thought that it was the end of the Tornados. But, they are back with Doug Sahm’s son, Shawn filling his father’s shoes, and with members Augie Meyers and Flaco Jiménez, they have released the Tornados first album in a decade.
Here’s a great video (1992) of the original Tornados at Gruene Hall in Gruene, Texas, doing “Mendocino,” the Sir Douglas Quintet super oldie.
