The Hombres were an American garage rock band from Memphis, Tennessee, known primarily for this 1967 single, Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out). Formed in 1966, The Hombres comprised Jerry Lee Masters (leader and bass player); Gary Wayne McEwen on guitar; B.B. Cunningham Jr. on lead vocals and electronic organ; and John Will Hunter on drums. Written by Masters, Hunter, McEwen, and Cunningham and released on Verve Forecast Records, the song hit number 12 in 1967. The song's spoken introduction – "A preachment, dear friends, you are about to receive on John Barleycorn, nicotine and the temptations of Eve" – dates to the 1947 novelty recording "Cigareets, Whuskey and Wild, Wild Women" by Red Ingle and His Natural Seven. This single is in Near Mint condition.
