ZZ Top

Alright, here’s a little bit of CONTENT from my side. I honestly can't believe nobody has brought up these living legends yet.
Just a fair warning right off the bat: if you're one of those motherfuckin' haters who spends all day trashing threads while worshiping some "never heard of 'em" indie band, stay the hell away from this topic. You aren't welcome.
This is strictly for ZZ Top fans!
By the way, I’m one of them, and I figured I’d take this chance to let the general public know that the guys from Hard Rock Cafe have been churning out pure R&B boogie for over 35 years now. And honestly? The older they get, the better they sound. I mean, seeing them perform in Washington, D.C. was absolute madness—if you weren't there, you missed out. It was easily the concert of the year!
My personal favorites:
1.Gimme all your lovin'
2.Sharp dressed man
3.La grange
4.Can't stop rockin'
5.Bohemian Rhapsody
6.Sleeping bag
7.Cheap sunglasses
8.Tush
9.gun Love
10.Got me under preasure

🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

One of my all-time favorite bands. For me, it’s always been Brown Sugar.

I just scrolled through this thread and I honestly can't believe ZZ Top hasn't been mentioned until now.
They are absolutely legendary in my book...

Just a heads-up right off the bat: I’ve got zero patience for those motherfuckin' haters on this thread. You know the type—people who have nothing better to do than trash everything while acting like some obscure "never heard of them" band is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Stay away if that's you.

I'm happy to rip apart just about anything worth criticizing. But I'm not touching ZZ Top. They're solid.

Even Hendrix said their guitarist was the best blues player he’d ever heard. 🙂

A little something sweet for your stockings 😁

🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

Legs is just absolute perfection... 😉

If you guys are such huge fans, then you really shouldn't miss the ZZ Top tribute show happening at the Hard Rock Cafe on December 26th, if I recall correctly.

Good old classic band!😉

So, what, they're such saints that we aren't allowed to hate on them?
Isn't the whole point of a forum to actually trade opinions? (Whether we agree or not, I don't care)

That is, it would have been considered a masterpiece if it hadn't clocked in at a mere hour and fifteen minutes. As it stood, the whole experience felt somewhat like a massive swindle. 👎

Afterward, we were joking that the US government had already slapped us with sanctions just for sitting through it. 😁

I grew up listening to them
and honestly, they’re still one of my favorite bands to this day.

I won't pretend I'm some die-hard superfan who... listens to them constantly,
but there are certain classics you just can't help but love.

Does anyone have a recording from that concert in Washington, D.C.?

They are a fantastic band, and I am honestly surprised there isn't more discussion about them here. 🤔
I personally prefer the blues tracks from their earlier albums, and "Blue Jean Blues" stands out as one of their absolute best songs. 🙏 🙏

Good old-fashioned rock'n'roll, man. Such an incredible band.

I mean, I guess I really dig 😍Rough😍😍

And man, that spot is legendary!

They were absolutely incredible when they played El Loco. But honestly? Since then, it feels like they’ve spent way more energy perfecting their beard grooming and synchronized guitar flips than actually focusing on the music—which has become incredibly formulaic and repetitive. 🙂 🙂 🙂

ae 🙂
I mean, someone really needs to release some more remasters, remixes, or demixes of those first two 🙂

Man, talk about legends... one of my all-time favorite bands ☕
