In the 1960s, Cardinal Records, a small, independent label based in High Island, Texas, made its mark with a single known release: Billy Don's "Walkin' Home at Midnight" . This rare 7" vinyl, now a collectible gem among enthusiasts of regional Texas music, epitomizes the raw, authentic sound of the local scene during that era. Although Cardinal Records was short-lived, its contribution to the Gulf Coast's rich musical landscape serves as a reminder of the many small labels that helped shape Texas' diverse music history.
Description: Walkin' Home at Midnight performed by Billy Don, with Johnny on Guitar. This song was co-written by Johnny Winter. Released on Cardinal Records 400, High Island, Texas. P.O. Box 29, Crazy Cajun Music. "J. Winters" may have been Johnny Winter, though this is still under debate.
