Book about Texas music.
I'm looking for a book about the history of Texas music, from Buddy Holly and T-Bone blues to current day. I can't remember the title, but I saw it in my local Borders store a few months ago. Predictably, it was gone the next time I went looking for it. Anyone remember it, and is it worth getting? Ron Warnick NP: Wilco, "Summer Teeth"
Re: Book about Texas music.
Could this be "Texas Music" written by Rick Koster? It serves the timelines and the artists you are speaking of. St. Martin's Press. Published 1998. Pretty good reading all in all. Talks about Buddy Holly. I just got "The Real Rhythm and Blues" by Hugh Gregory which spans the blues/soul years in the sixties. Quick and interesting reading and fills me in on my misguided Stax post from a few weeks ago. Oh well...memory and the best intentions do not necessarily make an informed post. Sorry about that.

Re: Book about Texas music.
Rick Koster--This is the guy that said Wayne Hancock was Butch's little brother. Be careful with this book. Check out Larry Willoughby's Texas Rhytm-Texas Rhyme, A Pictorical History of Texas Music. Also Check out the The Texas Music Bibliography put out by the Governor's office, it is on the web. Jamie np: The Pinetops vgs399 wrote: Could this be "Texas Music" written by Rick Koster?
