Reviews
"A wild, imaginative ride based around the musical history of both my musical and literal birthplace. So we'll crafted and detailed that I'm now having a difficult time discerning whether it did all indeed really happen. Highly recommended." -Jim Ward, lead singer of Sparta and cofounder of At the Drive In
"[ELPASO] builds to a robust conclusion, and the blistering descriptions of live performances are top-notch." - Publisher's Weekly
"Did I really see ELPASO or do they just represent the hundred or so bands I witnessed on a near nightly schedule when I was growing up? I'm not exactly sure, but Benjamin Villegas takes me right back to those extraordinary days in this enchanting book, so vividly I can smell the players & the venues!" -- Ronnie Barnett, bassist for The Muffs
"The amount of research that went into this book is unfathomable, and it truly brings the El Paso punk scene of the 1980s to life in a way that nobody has or has even thought to do before." --David Fletcher, Dallas Observer
"[ELPASO] builds to a robust conclusion, and the blistering descriptions of live performances are top-notch." --Publishers Weekly
