Contents Introduction. From Hendrix to now : Watt, his camera, and his odyssey -- Witnesses : the music, the wizard, and me / Mark Seal -- At home and on the road : 1970-1975 -- Got them Texas blues : early days at Antone's -- Rolling thunder : Dylan, guitar gods, and Joni -- Willie, Sir Douglas, and the Austin music creation myth / Joe Nick Patoski -- Cosmic cowboys and heavenly hippies : The Armadillo and elsewhere -- The Boss in Texas and the USA -- ... And what has happened since.
Summary In this rich visual history of the vibrant live music scene in Austin and elsewhere during the 1970s and early 1980s, Casey's lens reveals both the stage, awash in spotlights and crowd noise, and the more intimate, backstage moments, where entertainers hold forth to interviewers and friends. As Outlaw Country's cosmic cowboys mixed with East Coast rockers, Chicago bluesmen, and West Coast hippies, Watt Casey roamed at will, capturing on film the people, places, and happenings that blended to foster Austin's emerging reputation as "Live Music Capital of the World."--Publisher.
