This song, I Got a Name, was released as an album the day after Jim (who was just 30) died on September 20, 1973. He and his songwriter-guitarist,Maury Muehleisen had just completed a concert in Natchitoches, Louisiana, and were flying to Sherman, Texas, along with a comic who was part of their warm up
show. The pilot and all passengers were killed instantly at 10:45 PM EST, less than an hour after the end of their last concert. Upon takeoff, the small plane did not gain enough altitude to clear an area of large pecan trees at the end of the runway. The official report from the NTSB stated that the charter pilot, who had severe coronary artery disease, may have suffered a heart attack causing him to crash the plane into the trees on a clear runway with excellent visibility. A later investigation placed sole blame for the accident on pilot error.

In 1965, the Sir Douglas Quintet was formed and the group's name was chosen in an effort to make the band seem British to benefit from the British invasion. This image had its problems, particularly Doug Sahm's Texas accent and that two fifths of the band were of Mexican origin. The band had a top 20 US hit with the song "She's About a Mover" and a number of lesser hit over the years. The SDQ broke up after a bust for marijuana possession in Corpus Christi, TX, and Doug moved to San Francisco, forming the Honkey Blues Band before reforming the new SDQ with a new lineup was resigned and they released the successful single and album "Mendocino". The record contained the song "At the Crossroad" with the legendary Doug Sahm line "You just can't live in Texas if you don't have a lot of soul".

On November 29, 1963, President Lyndon Johnson appointed a commission under the leadership of Judge Earl Warren to investigate the November 22, 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy in Dallas. This photograph was taken on September 27, 1964, the day the Warren Commission presented Johnson with its 26-volume report. Known as the Warren Report, it concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald fired three shots from the Texas School Book Depository and was the sole assassin. The accuracy of the report has been questioned since that day.
