Sir Douglas Quintet - Mendocino
Label: Smash Records - S. 2191
Format: Vinyl, 7", Single, 45 RPM
Country: Canada
Released: 1968
Augie Meyers playing the keyboard with Doug Sahm singing the lead for the Sir Douglas Quintet. All were from San Antonio, Texas. Augie founded the band. I speak with Augie occasionally at the HEB grocery store on Bulverde Rd. in the northern fringe of San Antonio. He just turned 84 today, May 31, 2024, and my wife and I ran into him with three of his friends out to dinner at Bayseas Catfish Restaurant on Starcrest in north San Antonio. He and the great Flaco Jiminez are playing tomorrow night in Rockport, TX. They performed together in the Texas Tornadoes which also had the late Doug Sahm and the late Freddie Fender. I can truly say that Augie Meyers is a very nice person, still has his long braided pony tail and his black cowboy hat. A treasure living here in his hometown and loved by so many.
He will be at a place in San Antonio this Saturday I’m going!!!
I loved Doug sahm wish I could’ve seen him playing
Correction. Doug Sahm founded the band.
ROCK and ROLL HALL of FAME CANDIDATES for SURE 2024.
That would be amazing in a 31 year old millennial and my dads pot dealer was this old white hippie guy and he got us into Doug Sahm
1960"s and rock & roll and life was great.
first heard this at the tender age of 16 still sounds as fresh at 71
These guys were a "Cool" band. Just had that "Foot Tapping" sound & sung with a happy disposition. Simple but great times. Never get tired of the Sir Douglas Quintet - "Love that name " for the band.
Einfach großartig, Stimme und Darbietung von Dough Sahm und Band. 👍👍🎸🥁❤
Das ist noch richtig geile Musik gewesen und heute muss ich mir Billie Eilish und sowas anhören... 😑
1969, fresh back from Nam
My father loved this song 😊
1968 in our favorite pub De Harmonie we heard this from the jukebox. Forever in my thoughts
only getting to know this band, I must have had my head in the sand for the last many years, My god they are fantastic, Thanks Sir Dug's
Such a buoyant joyous sound in the mid to late '60's:
"Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, but to be young was very heaven!"
~William Wordsworth
that is how I feel about being young from 1960-1969 the best of times for being alive oh was I so innocent and trusting
Still a rockin good song. The song lyrics are great but the music is even better. Absolutely love this song.
My first single record was this song of the Sir Douglas Quintet: Mendocino. 1968 I was 11 years old.
@@xanthippe9757 I was one year away from graduating high school in 68. So long ago.
The San Antonio sound.
Catchy tune i loved since i first heard this when was a teenager in the 70's, love the bass line just wish it had a guitar solo somewhere
You gotta listen to the live version done by the "Texas Tornadoes ". Live in Austin. They rock it.
It’s band founder Augie Meyers doing the keyboard solos, so need for any guitar solo. This was the “San Antonio sound” taken from a combination of conjunto with a touch of zydeco to make it unique. You can hear it on many of their songs like “She’s About A Mover”. Fun sound. Augie turned 84 today (05/31/2024) and still performs with the great Flaco Jiminez. Augie Meyers is a very nice man and lives here in his hometown of San Antonio, Texas.
One of my favorites too. When I first traveled to California I had to see Mendocino because of this song. It doesn't disappoint. Incredibly beautiful little town.
Funny to read that you visited Mendecino because of the song. I too used to visit places because of songs or books and even because of films. It was always a special pleasure for me....
Loved Doug's music!! R.I.P.
wat een talent mooi melodie this is a great song proficiat
Este tema lo escuche en version Español x un grupo Italinano ,esta en un disco compilado de los años 70 " era de mis padres vine por un comentario sobre este grupo y ne he maravillado
Ich kenne auch eine andere Version auf Deutsch aus den 70er Jahren aber von "Michael Holm - Mendocino" aber das Original vom *Sir Douglas Quintet* ist einfach Das Beste!!! 💗🤗💗
Teenybopper...my teenage lover.....
Takes me back to 1969 rolling around with my girlfriend 🥰
I just assume that she was 19.
@@armanddimeo6575 Back then underage was not a big deal.
@@armanddimeo6575 No way, 14 tops.
No she was 14
I love this Song, beautiful doug sahm ❤❤😎🤠✌️
Whether it's by Sir Doug, the Texas Tornados, or the Bottle Rockets, this is a great song!
And Son Volt performed it in their last tour. I'm kinda bummed it's not on their newest album.
Always liked this song!
Such a jam. So many great songs about beautiful California.
Trouble is, most of the time, California is either under water or on fire.
was waren das für geile Zeiten!!!
Aber sowas von. Was die heute für einen Schrott hören, als ob die alle verblödet sind.......Doofes Volk heute.....von harter Arbeit, Qualität und guten Geschmack haben diese Kleinhirne von heute keinen Dunst.....die Apple und Mircrosoft Generation. Gruß von Andy aus Maintal bei Frankfurt/a.Main
@@andreasberger8566 Alte Erinnerungen werden wach...
The great Doug Sahm !
Made me so want go to California, from the great white north. Never did, but I love the song and the singers.

Superbe chanson bravo pour ce groupe des années 1968 1970 actuellement encore d,actualité
Augie Meyers the organ player, what a fantastic musician. Would’ve been nice to have a shot of him other than his fingers!
Love it, one of their best.

SDQ was a much better band than they were given credit for. Too bad we don't still have Top 40 radio stations.

The Sir Douglas Quintet was an American rock band formed in San Antonio, Texas in 1964. With their first hits, they were acclaimed in their home state. When their career was established (subsequent to working with Texas record producer Huey Meaux), the band relocated to the West Coast. Their move coincided with the burgeoning San Francisco psychedelic rock scene of the mid 1960s to early 1970s. Overall, the quintet were exponents of good-times music with strong roots in blues and Texas-regional traditions. The band's songs were most noted for the instantly distinguishable organ sound of Augie Meyers' Vox Continental. Doug Sahm, a veteran of the professional music scene who first sang on radio at the age of five, formed the Quintet (first called simply "Sir Douglas") in 1964 with longtime friend Augie Meyers and the other original members, Jack Barber, Frank Morin, and Johnny Perez. Sahm had started in country music and had played (at age eleven) on-stage with Hank Williams, Sr. during the latter's final performance. Sahm went on to play in blues clubs in his teenage years and had gained experience as a band leader.
The initial success of the new group, the Quintet, on the airwaves and sales charts was achieved when they made records in conjunction with Houston music producer Huey P. Meaux. Houston's recording industry had become the center of Texas R&B music. For more info. @ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Douglas_Quintet
Like the tune but I wish the lyrics wasn't about a pussy begging wussie.

Mendocino, Mendocino,
Where life's such a groove
You blow your mind in the morning.
We used to walk through the park,
Make love along the way in Mendocino.
(Ah, play it, Augie! Yeah!)
Like I told you, can you dig it?
If you wanna groove, I'll be glad to have you.
'Cause I love you so, please don't go,

Mendocino, Mendocino
Where life's such a groove,
You blow your mind in the morning
We used to walk through the park,
Make love along the way in Mendocino
Mendocino, Mendocino, Mendocino
Even the toughest of us sing Mendocino once or twice.
@@WattisWatts I agree but lyrics like this teaches many young men it's OK to be a pussy. It also serves as an emotional drug to help setup those hormone raging pussy worshiping wimp into relationships where many types of women will eventually take advantage of them, walk all over them, take them for what they can get, and go have sex with an alpha male because women, in the end, don't respect a pussy and want to be with a desirable man that presents with the qualities of having money, power and fame. The ultimate outcome for pussy worshiping men have to learn the hard way by making their mistakes. With some pussified men, it leads to suicide. You know, the "I can't live without you" type mega-wussies..
@@zzyzxRDFwy15 You got something there.
Tough to lose a hot 18 year old back then. Lol
