Mescalero (or Mescalero Apache) is a Native American tribe of Southern Athabaskan heritage currently living on the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation in southcentral New Mexico where they live with other Chiricahua and Lipan Apaches.
The Mescalero language is an Southern Athabaskan language which is a subfamily of the Athabaskan and Na-Dené families.
Mescalero lies on the southwestern branch of this subfamily and is very closely related to Chiricahua and more distantly related to Navajo and Western Apache.
Billy, Frank, and Dusty Head for the Border (624 words)
Mescalero is the latest installment in an unparalleled resume that stretches back to 1969 when the group was founded in Houston out of the key components of The Moving Sidewalks (Gibbons) and The American Blues (Hill and Beard).
Mescalero includes sixteen tracks (fifteen of which were written for the album plus one cover song) for a total running time of approximately 63 minutes; the band refers to the album's length as "a buck and change." The album was produced by Billy F Gibbons and Lone Wolf Production Company.
Beyond the Mescalero originals, the album includes "Tramp," the proto-rap R&B classic, written by Lowell Fulsom and Jimmy McCracklin, that was a hit duet for Otis Redding and Carla Thomas in 1967.
