Now, Real Gone Music has gone deep into the vaults to present the ultimate Texas Tornados collection, a 2-CD, 39-track set that includes prime cuts from all of their albums the Spanish and English versions of their self-titled debut, plus Zone of Our Own, Hangin On by a Thread and 4 Aces together with rarities and six unreleased sides including four instrumentals and a Miller Lite beer spot! Among the non-album tracks are such Tornados touchstones as Una Mas Cerveza and the Fender favorite Wasted Days and Wasted Nights, while the album sides are highlighted by (Hey Baby) Que Paso, Little Bit Is Better Than Nada, Who Were You Thinking Of, the Doug Sahm anthem Is Anybody Goin to San Antone, and many more. Friend of the band Randy Poe has penned the notes based on a fresh interview with Doug Sahm s son Shawn, latter-day leader of the Tornados and authority on all things to do with his dad, while the photos come from the dim recesses of the Reprise label archives. Remastered by Mike Milchner at SonicVision and assembled with love by compiler Mike Johnson, A Little Bit Is Better Than Nada Prime Cuts 1990-1996 is the roots music anthology of the year, and a long-overdue look at a band that has never stopped going strong.
