The Don Diego Trio
Live From Austin
(El Toro Records)


That the unvarnished riff-bop churned by this rangy, whip-crack Texas roots-trio is sometimes familiar should be counted as a credit. It's not easy to faithfully interpret the traditional sounds of a culture while imprinting them with one's own features. And to do that, this well, is not something heard every day.

Recommended: "Rolling Wheel," "Django From Twango," "Truck Drivin' Daddy," "Loves the Rain," "My Window Faces the South," "I Didn't Walk the Line," "Austin"

Video: "Rolling Wheel" (live)
