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 ...

A CD accompaniment to the Eagle Rock live DVD release of ZZ Top's November 1, 2007 set at the Nokia Theater in Grand Prairie, TX, Live from Texas is one for the fans -- a latter-day live record that's by no means embarrassing but not very captivating, either. The set list is hits-heavy, containing every one of the MTV hits from Eliminator & all the classic rock radio staples, all taken just a little bit slower than they were on record. That combined with the crystal clear production makes the ...

ZZ Top: Bill F. Gibbons (vocals, guitar); Dusty Hill (vocals, bass); Frank Beard (drums). Recorded at Foam Box Recordings, H-Town, Texas.

As one of the first blues-rock power trios to fuse synthesizers with their straightforward brand of boogie, ZZ Top conti ...

Before they sweated their image down to beards, babes & hot rods, ZZ Top were a down 'n' dirty blues-rock trio with a bonafide hot guitar player in Billy Gibbons. On this 14-track offering, Warner goes back through the back ZZ catalog & cobbles together an interesting collection of the Texas trio's bluesier sides that originally appeared on their earliest albums. Highlights include " Brown Sugar, A Fool for Your Stockings, My Head's in Mississippi, Apologies to Pearly" & Gibbons' stor ...

ZZ Top: Billy Gibbons (vocals, guitar); Dusty Hill (vocals, bass); Frank Beard (drums, percussion). This is ZZ Top's tenth album.ZZ Top entered the '90s with what was billed as a back-to-basics release, 1990's RECYCLER, five years after its previous album. The trio abandoned the Top 40, platinum-paved path it had followed on such 1980's mega-hits as ELIMINATOR & AFTERBURNER, to return to the blues rock boogie that had made it one of rock's finest outfits. While there were still synths spr ...
