Texas is a Scottish rock band from Glasgow, Scotland. They were founded by Johnny McElhone (formerly of the bands Altered Images and Hipsway) in 1986 and had their performing debut in March 1988 at Scotland's University of Dundee. They took their name from the 1984 Wim Wenders movie Paris, Texas. Their musical sound went from blues rock on their debut album Southside via the blue-eyed soul of White on Blonde to the disco pop of Red Book. Southside is the debut album of the Scottish band Texas. The album was released in March 1989.
In the 1970s, guitarist Jim Hall and bassist Ron Carter joined to form one of the most enduring and empathetic duos in jazz history. Their first album was Alone Together, a collection of standards and originals recorded live at New York's Playboy Club in 1972. Known for his conservative, reliable delivery, Hall opens with an embarrassingly effortless reading of Sonny Rollins' "St. Thomas". Carter immediately establishes himself as a simpatico partner, complementing Hall's nonpareil, deceptively simple technique through his parallel, contrapuntal lines.
