New Leer Cap for the Tacoma expands services at CDP

The trusty old steed, a 2003 crew cab four wheel drive Tacoma SR-5 has a new Leer Cap that can not only store more, but also frees up the seats in the cab for crew. It also has rack rails for ladders, stands, a canoe. It’s all about options. Need a ride to the airport?…

Citizen Doug Records Bob Geldof for Innerviews

While at HoustonPBS, I got to record Bob Geldof for Innerviews with Ernie Manouse. This was early in the run of the two camera half hour interview show. Shot at Holocost Museum Houston, there were some noise reduction efforts required in post production in the Pro Tools Suite I built at KUHT. He was definitely…

Carolyn Wonderland “Bad Girl” at KUHT 6-30-04

First tune first take. Carolyn Wonderland and the late Scott Daniels double up on a swinging guitar duet. Cole El-Saleh’s keyboard’s solo should not go with out mention. Carolyn’s smile at the end says it all. She smiles a lot, but not always after a tune. I don’t believe this tune ever saw the light…

After Party with Tianna Hall ‘Fever’ 9-20-06

For almost four seasons, we did a little talk show called The After Party on HousotnPBS. This was another brainchild of the amazing Ernie Manouse and was capably directed by Matt Brawley. We were crammed into studio B. Music consisted of a tiny stage and a crappy electric piano. It was a great vehicle to…

Citizen Doug records Bela Karolyi for NPR’s All Things Considered

I got to record All Things Considered Host Audie Cornish’s interview of gymnastic coaching legend Bela Karolyi. It was a very busy day at Camp Karolyi, a sprawling, frumpy, yet world class facility in the heart of the Sam Houston National Forest where thousands of tiny gymnasts have gotten their shot at the big…

Grenade “Do It Again” at KUHT 3-26-03

Grenade covers Steely Dan’s “Do It Again” Usually I tried to influence the music segments on ‘the beat’ towards original compositions with a few notable exceptions. I figured if we were going to represent Houston Music, then the performances should be from the minds of the people on the video. Particularly with Jazz, where there…

Hilary Sloan ‘Some Forgotten Sunday’ at KUHT 8-6-03

‘Some Forgotten Sunday’ by Hilary Sloan. I just love watching Ben the bass player whom I have played drums a few times in the Good Luck Band that had a regular gig at Toby Blunt’s old club on Washington Street. There is even a recording of it somewhere. I had shown up to see Chris…

Opie Hendrix ‘Fifty Dollar Bill’ at KUHT 11-12-03

Opie Hendix is another artist who’s lyrics say more about him then I ever could. I played in Opie’s band a couple of times. He’s a true Houston country musician in that he takes all the forms of punk and Grateful Dead and folk and funk and squeezes it out country somehow More Opie Hendrix…

Susan McDonald ‘Gilgamesh’ at KUHT 4-28-04

Susan McDonald was one of my first classical editing clients Karl Caillouet of Heights Sound Studio asked me to edit together the meticulously performed tracks of the CD “The Dream of Christopher Columbus”. Here she performs her own composition “Gilgamesh”, which my good friend Brad Sayles had just produced on CD for KUHF. This forum…

Jack Saunders ‘Highway 71’ at KUHT 8-20-03

Jack Saunders actually chose to be a Houston Musician; at least that’s what his bio says. At his appearance on ‘the beat’, he brought along legendary bassist Rankin Peters, who kinda steals the show, even though I totally blew this mix. Funny looking back how the simple combos seemed to be the toughest at times.…

David Craig ‘Last Concert’ at KUHT 5-1-03

David Craig and Sebastian “Bash” Whittaker and I all went to HSPVA. I was a couple of years ahead, so I think I mixed them a few times for Happenings, Spaghetti Super and a couple of Jazz Ensemble concerts. Right after they graduated, David backed Sebastian on his “First Outing” recording and then Sebastian backed…

Calvin Owens “The House is Burning” at KUHT 4-30-03

Calvin Owens, though not born in Houston, was a true Houston musician in that he defied description and pigeon holes. This is another of The Calvin Owens Blues Orchestra’s last television appearances. The band stretched the limits of the capacity of the KUHT studio infrastructure. ‘The House Is Burning’ was composed by Guy Schwartz, another…

Citizen Doug Plays Drums on Guy Schwartz’ “Roger Needs His Money”

Occasionally, Citizen Doug appears as a musician credit on recordings. Here, I play drums on the Guy Schwartz tune ‘Roger Needs His Money’. As usual, the track loop came from a mic check/warm up, not from an actual tracking attempt. At this point I am usually told that they got what they needed and I…

Sound Patrol ‘Walls Crumble’ at KUHT 10-01-02

Pine Island Station ‘Catfish John’ at KUHT 2-4-04

Pine Island Station had bookings last year so I guess they are still in the game. I felt bad about the promises that were made to them about getting on ACL as a result of this performance. I don’t believe anybody ever got a door opened at ACL because of this work. This effort was…
