I lived in Austin for 50 years, and had the pleasure of seeing all of these great musicians perform with their own bands individually, and also together as the Texas Tornados. I probably saw Flaco and Freddie the most, but loved them all.

I was lucky to live in Austin from 1971 to 1981 and got to see Doug Sahm, et al frequently. Great time for music in a then small town. Oh yeah, and the T-Birds were house band at Antone's on 6th street.

At 4:49 as Letterman was leading into a commercial, the band was playing the intro to Treat Her Right. Roy Head and the Traits made this song famous. Also, some of Salm’s dance moves are from Roy Head.

I was a loner in Alabama when I listened to and loved Doug Sahm and the Texas Tornados. It might have been because it was the same time Willie was taking off.

You obviously don't like Freddy Fender and I for sure don't like your comment. It's all of the parts that make the band. Each musician brought their individual talents into the band . Each member also being successful in bands prior to the Texas Tornados forming .. Freddy (RIP) and Doug (RIP), Augie and Flaco are all great musicians! In addition to their individual achievements, they will be credited, remembered and always be known as members of the great Band ,The Texas Tornados. That's my reply to you , (Fundio) !

I used to love David Letterman until I seen this... you know there's comedy and then there's just outright fake sarcasm which is really hides an identity crisis😟 I guess It Takes KZfaq the group's the past you never would have saw.. it's Freddy Fender's band.. they some how had to mainstream.. it's a good thing we don't need approval anymore
