From the small town of San Marcus, Texas on a farm that borders on L.B.J. Roy burst open the hit charts so quickly that it took just four weeks for a bright-eyed eager Texas boy to become know throughout the country and most of the world.
A surprising pick my my roommate, upon playing this album, I felt like I wanted to listen to something with a little swing and this record hit the spot. Listening and dancing to music are two things that I love, but when you know that something is so genuine as a little Texas swing, it makes you feel good about where music comes from. Roy Head, a Texas native, is from a little town of San Marcus, which is about 20 minutes-ish from Austin. Exploring music from a state that I currently reside in makes me appreciate how so many different genres and talents exist in the world. From the 60's to today!
Enjoy!!
