674 A Week @ The Creek


If the Armadillo World Headquarters was the heart of Austin's music community in the early Seventies, Soap Creek Saloon was its soul. The rundown shack of a venue was on a godforsaken stretch of Bee Caves Road, west of town, and the rutted dirt trail that led to it was even more notorious. You'd never know it today, looking at the strip malls that line the highway, but it was the scene of many a wild night. In that spirit of the adventurous '70's we travel back for a typical "Week At The Creek" circa 1972 style.
