My sentiments exact. Back before instant internet fame for talentless musicians with autotune vocalists. To be on the radio you had to have survived long enough to have put in your dues and EARNED the right to be on the air. This meant a combination of talent, dedication, and a bit of luck. Now it is mainly just luck.. everything else is done via computer.

John Campbell Yes Sir! Most people today only know songs like “Cheap Sunglasses” and all the hits of the 80’s and beyond. I grew up with their beginning albums in the early 70’s and the rest of the decade. Again, most people only know them from Billy Gibbons and Dust Hill’s long beards and don’t know them when they were sporting cowboy hats and and Frank Beard had the long hair. Again, you’re correct with Deguello being released in ‘79, the point I was trying to make for Mr. Jamel was to explore music from their first album all the way up to Tejas. Good, good, old Texas Rock N Roll from that little old band from Texas!

While not a blanket fan of all things ZZ Top I do love quite a few of their tunes. Legs, Sharp Dressed Man, Doubleback, Gimme All Your Lovin..... jams. That said, I like their sound and would love to check out a show by them because they give off the vibe of putting on a rocking show.

I enjoyed your reaction ! Wow released on the 23/3/83 in London ! and just 47 days later I changed my whole life and moved from the heart of Inner London to the very edge of South East London and still live in that house I bought for £ 27,400 or $35,000 nearly 37 years later.....

They are one of those bands that have proven so hard, music doesn't need to be complicated to be good. lol

I saw them 4 times. '75, '77, '81 and '84. Each time was better than the one before. Rest well, Dusty. You entertained millions for years. You deserve peaceful rest.

I saw ZZ Top one time at the Lakeland Civic Center (FL) in March 1986, don't remember which night. Jimmy Barnes was the opening act. Fuzzy guitars were in effect.

Jamel, I went and saw them in concert and during the show Billy said that Mr. Hendrix taught him everything he knows.

I've always wondered how they went from small town Texas boogie to the biggest band in the US with a Pop image and then back to small town Texas boogie. The orchestration was amazing - the image was a huge part of it. The videos are amzing in that they almost tell a story when put together. But the little things, like the dusters, the keys, the car, the little movements in unison, the fuzzy guitars etc. Totally not in line with a hard core Texas blue band. God I love the ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZs
