BOB
LIVINGSTON has
never been a traditional Texas country musician
living the honky-tonk life, even though he has spent
more than his share of time on the roadhouse circuit
with some of Texas’ more colorful musicians.
Livingston moved to Austin in 1971 with Michael
Martin Murphey after they recorded the album Geronimo’s
Cadillac for
A&M Records. Austin was a creative boom
town whirling with excitement and busting at the
seams. The streets were full of musicians, poets,
artists and dancers. Livingston quickly hooked up
with Jerry Jeff Walker and he sang and played on
some of Texas' quintessential progressive country
rock albums including Jerry Jeff's 1973 classic, Viva
Terlingua!
In 1974, Livingston, Gary Nunn and John Inmon
founded the Lost Gonzo Band. They made two
records for MCA and one for Capital. Rolling
Stone called the Gonzo’s self titled debut record,
“one of the best albums to ever come out of
Austin.”
