Sad. Loved ZZ Top...RIP
 
All the great ones are dying off and we will be left with Bieber and Drake , that's when i shoot myself.

Take heart ptp, there's still Bon Jovi and the cheese eater who took his shirt off on the Super Bowl Half Time show to suck corporate cock.

Epic, just epic!

I tried finding a live version where the bass line stands out, not available. Perhaps Dusty Hill's best work...not many bands can reach this level of harmony.

A friend of mine in Calgary gave me a used ZZ Top album in 1972 that he bought second hand. In 1972. used.....Put it on and the first track was Francene. Rest of the album just kept getting better with every track. I moved to Toronto shorty after and went to "the all night record store" and asked the guy if he had an album by a band called Rio Grande Mud. The album was called ZED ZED Top. He said "oh you mean zztop" So sad. Yet he had a life to be proud of. Will live for ever.
In the Netflix doc, he mentioned after the Fandango album in 1976. they all went their separate ways for a few years. He got a job at the airport, just to be a working guy with the guys and go for a beer after work on Fridays.

I still remember the day I was in Grade 9 and was attending Midland Avenue Collegiate (High School no longers exists) and went into the library where you could sign out records (yes - the good 'ole days) anyways there in the section I saw ZZ Tops' Eliminator and Triumphs' Never Surrender and when I played Eliminator I became a instant fan, that weekend I went to A&A's Record on Eglinton and that was it - followed them ever since.

Great memory - RIP mate.

That really sucks. They're one of the few bands I really love that I never got a chance to see live. :cry:
