Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Dave Bartholomew is rocking old town Mesquite with music like it's never heard before. As a favor to his friend and protege, Larry "T-Byrd"
Gordon, popular Texas show band leader and husband of Balch Springs,
Texas' new "Singing Mayor", Carrie Gordon--- Mr. Bartholomew is joining
forces with T-Byrd's band (TMPL) and Mesquite's Art Greenhaw of The Light Crust
Doughboys to revitalize Old Town Mesquite into a musical destination
center, an artists' square. Every other Saturday night throughout the
summer, T-Byrd's variety revue combines with Art's Doughboys' sounds and
style which further combine with classic Dave Bartholomew hits known
'round the world like "I'm Walkin' ", "One Night (of Sin)",
"Witchcraft", "Ain't That A Shame" and more. As more historical
background, Mr. Bartholomew produced and arranged what many people claim
is the very first rock and roll record, 1949's " The Fat Man" starring
Fats Domino.
"The Best of R&B is Back, and it's every other week in Mesquite, Texas."
Performances at McWhorter-Greenhaw bldg., 105 S. Broad St., Mesquite,
Texas 75149.
