THIS IS A BLUEBEATMUSIC FAVORITE!!!! ABSOLUTELY KILLER SOULFUL BLUES/JAZZ JAM!!!
The original West Side Horns, Rocky Morales (tenor sax), Louie Bustos (tenor, baritone sax) and Charlie McBirney (trumpet), started working together, off and on, in the '60s, before the crew had a name. While they consistently worked various gigs, together and apart, the horns gained their moniker, and an international identity among those who read the small print on album covers, via their work with Doug Sahm & the Last Real Texas Blues Band which featured San Antonio legends Spot Barnett on sax & Sauce Gonzales on keyboards. When McBirney left the road, trumpeter Al Gomez stepped in on trumpet. Guitarist Jonny Moeller (now with the Fabulous Thunderbirds) is featured on this outstanding release!!
