CDR copy--Sung by the Tex-i-an Boys. Production notes: Recorded at the University of Houston. FW-ASCH-7RR-1009, in a black tape box, is identical to the Smithsonian Folkways recording, "Songs of Texas - Sixteen popular folk songs of the Lone Star State, sung by the TEX-I-AN Boys" (FW05328), issued in 1961. The TEX-I-AN Boys are John A. Lomax, Jr., Pete Rose, Ed Badeaux, Jim McConnell, and Howard Porper, all of whom live in the vicinity of Houston, TX. They are basically Folk Revival singers in nonmusical professions, e.g., geologist, real estate developer, music teacher, etc. They accompany themselves on guitar, banjo, mandolin and autoharp.
Five men from the Houston area perform "Sixteen popular folk songs of the Lone Star State," most of which have become well-known throughout the country. The songs reflect some of the realities and history of Texan life: cowboys, farming, love, a powerful hurricane, the Alamo, the blues, and a country dance. One song with an interesting history (Billy Barlow) has been traced back to 14th Century England. The Tex-i-an Boys hope that you will find their songs "singable"; and they promise that when you can sing them with "proper reverence," you will be made "honorary Texans!" Extensive liner notes provide the background of each song, as well as the lyrics.
