Sir Douglas Quintet - I Don't Want

A lesser-known track from the Mendocino album, with some of the more common attributes of that era of the SDQ--Doug has double-tracked his vocals, Augie is playing what is almost a string part on the Vox organ, the influences are a seamless blend of C&W, R&B, and much else besides--all prominent. The twelve-string guitar adds a lot to the final blend as well. This is a sound that, while not being all that unusual, is really not quite like anything else.
