Me too. Pretty obscure record, but great R&B Doug and I liked his R&B stuff more than his more Texas'y stuff. And I liked that a lot too. I saw him twice around the Hell of a Spell time. Once in a tiny little room in Tucson at the University of Arizona in about 1979 or 1980 with the T-birds opening up for him - both Doug and Jimmie Vaughan blew my mind that night. I saw Doug wandering around the halls looking for bathroom after his set and talked to him for a few minutes. Seemed like a hell of a nice guy. And then I saw him again in late 1981 in this huge club in London. He was great both times...
