1969년미국TEXASHOUSTON지역에서3인조로출발한이밴드는BLUES에BOOGIE리듬을가미하여강력한SOUND를주무기로딴BAND에서느낄수없는독특한음악적개성을가지고있다.71년첫ALBUM"FIRSTALBUM"을발표하여소폭의히트를기록한후여러유명밴드의OPENINGBAND로순회공연을가지며지명도를높여가던중계속앨범을제작하여73년발표한"TRESHOMBRES"로대히트하여LOCALBAND로인식되었던이들을전국적으로유명하게만들었다.얼마전개봉된영화아마겟돈에삽입되었던LAGRANGE가이앨범을당시에도유명하게만들었다.그후FANDANGO에수록된TUSH로이밴드최고의히트를기록하였으며,76년부터미국및전세계순회공연을하며동시발매한TEJAS로다시그들의세번째PLATINUMRECORD를기록하는성과를거두었으나,곧그들은아무연락없이3년간의은둔생활에들어가수많은억측과루머가난무하였지만각자개인생활을마음껏즐겼다한다.3년간의은둔생활을끝내고79년DEGUELLO를발표하여CHEAPSUNGLASSES를히트시킨후83년발표된ELIMINATOR중LEG로다시큰인기를얻었다.허나이앨범부터음악은그전과달리기계음사용이증가되고상업적성격이강화되어원래그들의음악과는거리가멀어져가며차차인기도하락하여이제는거의잊혀진밴드가되어가고있다.우리나라에서는오랜기간BLUEJEANBLUES가계속사랑받고있다.개인적인생각으로는은둔기간후재활동하지않았으면정말전성기에떠난전설의밴드가되어대중의사랑을더욱오래도록받지않았을까하는아쉬움이있다.
