August "Augie" Meyers (born May 31, 1940 in San Antonio, Texas) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, performer, studio musician, producer, and record label owner. He is perhaps best known as a founding member of the Sir Douglas Quintet and the Texas Tornados. ==History== In the early 1960s, Meyers and Doug Sahm founded the group known as the Sir Douglas Quintet. His Vox organ was a familiar element of the group's sound as heard on tracks like "She’s About A Mover" (1964), "Mendocino" (1969), and "Nuevo Laredo" (1970). In the 1990s, Meyers co-founded the hugely successful supergroup known as the Texas Tornados with Doug Sahm, Flaco Jiménez, and Freddy Fender. Since the 1970s, Meyers has operated several of his own record labels including The Texas Re-Cord Company (co-founded with Lucky Tomblin), Superbeet Records, and White Boy Records. As a studio musician, Meyers has played on countless releases by other artists including those by Bob Dylan, John P. Hammond, John & Mary, Kevin Kosub, Tom Waits and Doug Sahm. Meyers lives in the Texas Hill Country town of Bulverde, Texas. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Augie Meyers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
