Al Dean & The All Stars were not from Corpus but as a South Texas country act they ruled the 60's. Based out of Freer, Texas, their hit instrumental recording of Cotton Eyed Joe was in heavy rotation leading up to the news on the popular KROB country music station out of Robstown in the late sixties.
I'll bet they logged many hours playing Corpus' honky tonks and dancehalls back in the day.
Here is slightly more rockin' effort called Fragile Heart on Warrior (not to be confused with the current label of the same name).
what is your name? Grew up in CC listening to and dancing to Al Dean and the Allstars.
