  for a few years now, whenever my buddies and I listen to the great ZZ Top LP "Tres Hombres" we inevitably talk about the meal pictured in the gatefold...after years of this talking my friend decided to make it from scratch for us for his birthday. First we had to decide what it is we agreed on the following:3 enchiladasrice and beans2 crispy shelled tacosplate of guacamole and refried bean nachosbean tostadalimesjalapenosbeerwe were undiecided on what the cheese covered thing on the left of the plate was...even a call to the restaurant where the photo was taken (Lou's in Houston, which is still open) didnt know...so we decided it was a chili relleno.So all 6 of us ate a "Tres Hombre" and consumed many magaritas, beers and bowls. I was able to finish mine, and one other person was able to finish also...its a big meal...so 6 of these were made...

  

  we are undecided on what other record meal we will make and consume...the easiest will undobetedly be the CHarlie Daniels band gatefold of buckets of freid chicken and Jack Daniels...

  this a good one if you are a fan of garage rock...arguably, Fort Worth probably had the greatest garage scene of any city in the country as far as sheer numbers of realy really good bands and records
