The first two albums have displayed strong roots of blues and Texas humor of the group. Their third album (“Tres Hombres”) brought them national recognition thanks to the hit “La Grange”, a musical rhythm saver, which is popular until now, and based on the compositions of John Lee Hooker “Boogie Chillen”.
