Odessey & Oracle has done amazingly well for an album that not too many people noticed on its original release in 1968 -- there have been at least three CD reissues of it since 1988, & this is number four. The 12 original tracks have been expanded to 28, the same number as the disc containing this album on the Zombie Heaven box & the free-standing 30th anniversary edition from Big Beat, but they don't entirely overlap; the complete original album is here, along with a half-dozen accompanyi ...

This double-CD set isn't a substitute for the four-CD box from Big Beat, but it does provide a slightly leaner & less-expensive way of running through the band's history. It's difficult to believe that a group whose recording history lasted just a little more than three full years could account for the 22 single A- & B-sides on disc one of this set, but that was the pace of the business in those days, & it wasn't unheard of for a band to get four or five singles out in a year, especially i ...

Like precious few bands from the '70s whose best work is mummified daily thanks to classic rock radio, ZZ Top just keeps rolling on into the next decade. There's much to love here, from the downright nasty stomp of " Fuzzbox Voodoo, the powerhouse slow blues of Cover Your Rig, the bass-pumping looniness of Girl in a T-Shirt, to the slow grind of Breakaway." While Billy Gibbon's guitar tones on this album are highly reminiscent of Tres Hombres (an early high-water mark for the band), the hig ...

ZZ Top took an extended break from the tour trail & the recording studio after wrapping up the tour for its 1976 album, TEJAS. DEGUELLO (Spanish for 'beheading') was issued three years later, & continued the Texas trio's winning streak. Most ZZ Top fans consider DEGUELLO to be the last link to the band's characteristic early blues-rock; it moved to a more accessible sound with its '80s releases EL LOCO, ELIMINATOR, & AFTERBURNER. Ending the '70s on a high note for the b&, DEGUELLO includ ...

ZZ Top: Billy Gibbons (vocals, guitar); Dusty Hill (vocals, bass); Frank " Rube" Beard (drums). ZZ Top was formed by guitarist Billy Gibbons, who had won praise from no less than Jimi Hendrix for his guitar work with the Houston b&, Moving Sidewalks. After the break-up of Moving Sidewalks, he recruited fellow Texans Dusty Hill & Frank Beard. Inspired by Muddy Waters, the Rolling Stones & Texas blues legend John Lee Hooker, they played a solid brand of blues-rock that won them a devoted loca ...

Zz Top - Afterburner

Well, if you just had your biggest hit ever, you'd probably try to replicate it, too. And if you were praised for being visionary because you played all your blues grooves to a slightly sequenced beat, you'd probably be tempted to not just continue in that direction, but to tighten the sequencer and graft on synthesizers, since it'll all signal how futuristic you are. While you're at it, you might visualize how space age this all is by turning your signature car into a space shuttle. If you look
