R.I.P. AUGIE MEYERS (1940 - 2026)

 
I had something else already done for today but when Rich Horton notified me this morning that one of my real musical heroes, Augie Meyers had passed away, I had to change things around.
I've said before that my intention has never been to turn this blog into a musical graveyard, but almost every day you read about some musical legendary icon, only to find out it's somebody you never have heard of, but Augie Meyers really was legendary.
Augie's trademark organ can be heard on many of his recordings with Doug Sahm and The Sir Douglas Quintet, and/or The Texas Tornadoes, but he also had some solo albums like this one that were really great too
He will be missed!!
