thank you for posting this, ive known about HBE for a few years but ive never actually heard their stuff until now. ive been a big fan of the Butthole Surfers for a long time so ever since i found out about Coffey’s pre-BHS days ive been dying to hear some HBE. i must say its about what i expected and im quite pleased.

Erich,
Scarcity is due to the fact we only pressed 500 of them…

Great info Tommy – thanks a lot! Can you tell us more about the reasons for the scarcity of the 7″?

My name is Tommie Duncan and I was the original guitarist for the Hugh Beaumont Experience back when I was 15…we cut that EP in 3 hrs at a small studio in Arlington, TX and we had only been together as a band for about one month…the first airplay was on The Rock and Roll Alternative hosted by George Gimarc the following Sunday…I also played on the live side of the Virgin Killers LP, which was a gig at the now defunct Bowie Theater in Ft Worth, TX (hometown for us). The studio side however features a guy named David McCreath on guitar as I left the band when they decided to move to Austin, TX…Jeff “King” Coffee (best know as the drummer from the Butthole Surfers), played on both sides of the Virgin Killers LP but was not with the band when we did the original EP…the drummer at that point was Carter Kolba…Coffee was to join the band about 5 months later…Cool to see this stuff is still around!!! I myself live in BKK, Thailand and still play guitar a bit!

i went into a rage hearing this again after so many years. such memories it brings back to me of being a teenage hellion. it reminded me of my old ex girlfriend mandy who tried to kill me with her pink switchblade and bumming beer money from strangers on the streets of tennessee

I’ve never seen this posted anywhere until E. posted it here.
Why do you than somebody for taking interest in punk from the region where you come from (and way over 20 years old!)? Weird!
