We've lost a great one-- Doug passed away on 11/18/99.This is such a a great album-- it rocks, it grooves, it makes you smile even on the worst day of your life. What a singer, what a band, what a bunch of great songs!Rest in Peace, Sir Doug!

5.0 out of 5 stars His spirit lives on in the music..., June 4, 2000

SDQ 98 has become my favorite album associated with the late and truly great Doug Sahm. My discovery of Doug Sahm's music went backwards from the Texas Tornados to his earlier solo and Sir Douglas Quintet work. SDQ 98 has the best of the Doug Sahm sound. Blended genres--rock, blues, country, tex-mex--it is all here in some of the most melodious work Sir Doug has ever done. Joined on this one by his long time collaborator Augie Meyers, his son Shawn and alternative country pioneers the Gourds, the songs on this album will make you appreciate what a talent we lost when this music legend left us. His spirit, however, will live on in great recordings like this one. If you were ever a fan of Doug Sahm, the Sir Douglas Quintet, or the Texas Tornados, you must have this album.
