The Sir Douglas Quintet - She's About A Mover

[nigbot1]

hey .. heyyy... Calvin Richards ... how r u bro... WestBrook ....lol

[SellawEvets]

The beginning of this song reminds me of the Beatles' "My love don't give me presents"

[RLettuce]

Oh what FUN!....love the memories and beat!! (Good excercise music too!)

[ENS64]

Sounds a lot like "She's a woman" by the Beatles and " Too Far Out" by the Liverpool Five.

[EricDMidget]

R.I.P. Huey Meaux. You made some great records. 

[DaDa2Phlux]

Texas had talent the equal of New York or LA -but not the marketing savvy.Sahm,Joplin,the 13th Floor Elevators,Johnny & Edgar Winter,Steve Miller,Townes van Zandt,Lightnin' Hopkins,Fever Tree,the Moving Sidewalks heard the call  of Haight.-Ashbury.Which explains the steady exodus, but also brought a much wider audience.& critical acclaim.

We got us a Tree Shaker!!!!

Cool cool song! songs from the 1960s and 1970s meant something. They still sound good today as it did when the original song was recorded. Right on man!

[alan1963]

That still sounded like RAY CHARLES!!  Hey Ray Charles, try that song on the piano!!

[hungryherbie]

Sir Douglas Quintet what a fancy name !!! this song is the best in quality sound thats posted so well done geeohgeeitsme another fancy name

[drohegda]

@hungryherbie the band chose the name Sir Douglas Quintet because at that time in the usa music had alot of groups from the U.K. the british invasion so they came up with the name.thank you Drohegda

[hungryherbie]

@drohegda well that would make a lot of sense ....and speaking about names yours looks like a town name in Ireland Drogheda ..just a thought..cheers Herbie

[PicciProductions]

the beginning sounds identical to She's A Woman by The Beatles

[marshb97]

@PicciProductions Yes it does. It came out before the Beatles song.

[AppleCorp3]

@marshb97 This came out in 1965. She's a Woman was 1964.

[olivermcummins]

She's about a mover what a great song from the

60s its years since I heard it last and now its made my day ....thank you for posting

[MogamboJack]

@olivermcummins Couldn't say it better!!!

[sugoidessho]

One of the best songs from the sixties ... rockin' driving beat and bluesy, powerful, soulful voice ... whoah yeah what I say! I was in San Francisco in the mid-sixties when this came out and was blown away the first time I heard this song from this great Texan band relocated to SF. Reminds me of CCR's "Keep on Chooglin" and Sam the Sham's "Wooly Bully."

[maydom04]

@sugoidessho I was just thinking the same connection with Wooly Bully, both great stomping songs..PS still can't quite figure out relevance of the title....I always heard and thought it should be "She's a Body Mover"....maybe that's what they meant but too risky for radio at the time?

[DaysOfPineAndRoses]

@sugoidessho

Lucky you.

I mean that.

[rubencampero]

que musica gracias que recuerdos vividos

[ol49rrrrr]

Doug Sahm recorded under his own name and as a member of Sir Douglas Quintet and the Texas Tornados. This is likely his biggest hit tune but he recorded a lot of other fine stuff.

[psychkoala]

Sooo cool ! Tex-Mex (musical) Soul Food.

Great vocal, great band, great song...

These guys ought to be a household word !

[HITTHESKINS]

JUST A GREAT SINGLE.

[UncleJim46]
