El Rey

El Rey, the king is a story about a bandit that roved the border between Texas and Mexico near Matamoros. It’s my take on those classic spaghetti western. Is our protagonist a good guy or is he as evil as the federally say is the truth somewhere in between. It’s about how legends get twisted with time. I wrote this song after hearing about passing of Dusty Hill from ZZ Top. I guess it got me thinking about Texas and in turn westerns and Banditos.
