Description

Offered for sale is an original U.S. pressing of the 1983 LP Gunslinger by Tres Hombres, featuring Billy Bob Thornton on drums.

About this copy: This copy of Gunslinger is a 1983 U.S. pressing on the Texas-based Trigger Records label.

The cover is M-.  The custom inner sleeve is VG++ with a few wrinkles, but no splits.

The disc is VG++ and close to M- with a couple of faint scuffs from the heavy paper inner sleeve.  There are no spindle marks on the labels; the record has likely only been played once or twice.  Clean disc!

A nice copy of a scarce (and pretty good) blues rock LP.  We lived in Texas in the 1980s and never saw this LP there.

Background:  There isn’t a lot of information online about Tres Hombres, the band, though actor/drummer Billy Bob Thornton once referred to them as the “best little cover band in Texas.”

The band released one album, the 1983 Gunslinger, released on the Houston, Texas-based Trigger Records label.

The album didn’t chart, and may have been sold only at personal appearances.
