"Treviño takes his classic
country sound, blends it with a dash of the old western style, a sprinkle of
Latin spice and more than a little guts to create an album that shoots from
the hip, speaks from the heart and touches the soul."
John Goodspeed,
music writer for the San Antonio Express-News

GERONIMO TREVIÑO III & THE GERONIMO
BAND/Love's Lost & Found. 2004 release for TREVIÑO & group recorded at their
studio in San Antonio, Texas. Instrumentation: fiddle, piano, mandolin,
pedal steel, harmonica, harmony vocals, bass & drums.
One of Texas' regrettably lesser
known troubadours, Geronimo Trevino possesses a versatility and clarity in
his voice that's at times reminiscent of Marty Robbins

Trevino came up with the title for the album, which carries a theme of
dreams, failures and love.
"(Bass player) Jeff Simonson thought the albums
title would make a good song title about how it would feel for someone to
buy a wedding ring from a pawnshop," Trevino said.
So they co-wrote it.
...Several things make the album special.
It's Trevino's first album to be recorded in a studio and not some or most
live, and every band member not only played on the project, they had a say
in it. "It was a total team effort putting this together," Trevino said.
"Out of all the albums I've recorded, I'm most fond of this one because of
all we've done with it."
Then there are the songs. Half
were written or co-written by Trevino, Simonson and Tom Strauch,
accoustic and lead guitar player, and they fare fine against others in the
lineup by the likes of Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Hal
Ketchum and Mike Blakely.
And they are not all honky-tonk
shuffles, either. They range from classic country and its topics, such as a
man turning to the bottle after a breakup ("Holdin' On"), to Blakelys "Mira
Las Palomas," a Western ballad that mourns the passing of an old vaquero in
a duet with Johnny Rodriguez.
There are laughs too, with
"Family Jewels," sung and written by Strauch after being questioned whether
he was going out with the boys or staying home with his wife.
...Other regular band members are
Henry Witek, pedal steel guitar; Ricky Bobkowski,
drums; Dick Walker, fiddle; (check out Dick's web
page :
dickwalkermusic.com ) and sound man Roger Robinson. Guests on the
album include Texas Steel Guitar Hall of Fame member Denny Mathis.
One song, "Land of the Navajo"
by Peter H. Rowan, was recorded in 1994 for Trevino's album "My
Heroes Have Always Killed Cowboys" and features legends such as
Vassar Clements on Fiddle and Buddy Emons on Dobro.
