The Hombres were from the Memphis area (Bill Cunningham's brother was in
the Box Tops), but it was Texas/Louisiana legend Huey P. Meaux who produced
this weird cross between 'Gloria' and 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' which
made it to #12 in November, 1967.

The spoken intro, BTW, is taken from the 1949 novelty record 'Cigareetes,
Whuskey, and Wild, Wild Women' by Red Ingle and the Natural Seven.  -- AWR
