My dad and I when I was 15, flying down the highway to Portland, Oregon listening to ZZ Top. What a damn good time, dear beloved dad. I miss you to this day with all my heart.
Absolute Legends, I'm 51, and if one-day I'm in a Wheelchair or bedridden in some nursing home,you can bet I will be demanding some headphones and a player and I will STILL be rocking to All my Favorite bands and ZZ TOP will be right there, RIP DUSTY
There an interesting story that in the late 70's ZZ Top would play OMD's (Orchestrals Maneuvers in the Dark) electronic tracks in the background before the concert stage was getting set up. Because they thought it was very avant-guarde. Amazingly, OMD made of of ZZ Top about it because they didnt' see ZZ Top as "cool." In later interviews, OMD lamented that they dissed ZZ Top, even though ZZ Top was actually honoring OMD's music. In interviews they sorrowfully explained that they were young and cocky and that to them, ZZ Top just seemed like some old burnt-out rockers. ZZ Top, as we know, did get a lot of heat for their newer synth-driven rhythms. One friend of mine called it shitty "disco-rock." Incidentally, I have a music channel where I show my Theory of Pitch Psychology, which explains (or claims to explain) why composers and songwriters choose different keys for certain emotions or themes. I'm speaking from chat channel, but you can make a search for _The Acoustic Rabbit Hole._ Take Care! - _The Acoustic Rabbit Hole
I distinctly remember when this single came out on the radio to support the Afterburner albums released soon. The insane opening and the raising up of the drums finally in their music. I remember us racing out to buy this cassette. And I know within the next year we were sitting in row 5 inside the Palace of Auburn Hills, Michigan watching this tour. This is the quintessential ZZ Top breakout album. With Recycler coming later, it was just the greatest time in the 80s
Breakout album??? They lost fans like me who grew up on their first SEVEN albums when they got into synthesizers and artificial sounds instead of the sound that made them famous BEFORE this album and partially the one before "eliminator". I think you need to look into their albums before this one but to each his own
First ZZtop album I got was afterburner in late 1985. Hard to hear of Dusty's passing today. Thank you sir..you guys helped make our teen years In the 80s awesome. Rock on.
They really did reinvent themselves and captured teens and young people in the 1980's. I'm sure they had some "die-hard" original fans who didn't like the keys and synthesizers, but Eliminator, Afterburner and Recycler were *great* albums regardless if a few didn't like the direction
ZZ Top pulled off the rare feat of starting in the Classic Rock 1970s and made the transition to the MTV 1980s, and not only transitioning but reached even new heights. Thank you gents for such great music!
Rest In Paradise🕊 DUSTY HILL ... Thank You So Much For The Great Music And Talent You Gave To Us And Left To Us!!! The Greatest Rock🎸Band from the Lone Star State: ZZ TOP!!!
RIP Dusty Bro. You, your talent and contribution to music will always live on. Dusty and the rest of the crew gave us great music, and they were the soundtrack of my life and millions of others around the world-Thank you. Dusty and ZZ Top define great music.
fun fact: my uncle who was a monster truck pro actually drove the truck (BearFoot) for this video. He doesn't remember much about this video particularly, it was just another 80s gig for him... though even as a kid I was entranced by the hillbilly fairy tale aesthetic of this story. Man do I love ZZ Top.
Rest In Peace, Dusty. Last night my bf and I were at a music festival and the band that was playing did a cover of a ZZ Top song. I didn't know at that moment that Dusty had passed, not until later at home from the internet. If I had known I would have been bawling while they were playing it. My fave of theirs is "Legs". I commented on this one though, because this is the one I came to before "legs" and wanted to watch it, as I've never seen this video before. Dusty, I'm making a peace sign, with my fingers, kissing it, and raising it to Heaven. You just made the music there, even, sweeter.
When this album was new i was... 8yo. I used to think this tune/video was cooler than life itself... I must say that when i see this now, a forgotten part of me has me feeling that it still is... Monstertruck.. The ZZ-Top Hot Rod turning UFO... Heavy Synthesized Rock! Afterburner became the first Vinyl i bought myself with my own savings. Still not a scratch...
My brother and I bought the 45rpm single in 85. Played the death out of it on the turntable. It had a cool cover sleeve of a king Tut looking mask on it. We lost that single in a move to another state .
The worst thing about getting older is all your cherished musical icons you grew up listening to and seeing perform passing away. Rest in Power Joseph Michael “Dusty” Hill. 🎸 🎶
I'm a 2000s kid, and recently got my first record player. My dad lent me some of his old LPs, one of which is a ZZ Top one. I can't stop playing it, this band truly has a charm to them! Thank you dad for introducing me to ZZ Top!
The choreography where they construct the bridge and conclude with the hand thrust is pure genius. They pace of the song just propels you along and draws you into the story.
Ah the 80s! Parties in the woods with a bonfire going, good friends, beer and whiskey flowing, the sexy curvy 80s ladies, and 5000 watts of awesome 80s rock blasting from the bed of the 4 x 4! Good times! Good memories!
In 1985 as a 16 yo I left home for another city 800klm away from home. One day I heard this sound I'll never forget. It was none other than Sleeping Bag. I loved that sound. Then another song and another from Afterburner. Then I finally figured out it was the same band as those other songs I hear that I like..! From Eliminator, el Loco, Fandango from 75 etc (1975 Surf Coast cruising Geelong Victoria-I was 6) La Grange, who doesn't like La Grange?. The more I looked the more I discovered I had like their music for longer than I realised. I've never looked back. I'm the only ZZ top music fan I know. But I'll never regret a moment. I saw them in 87 in Melbourne Australia, I was 17 and stood about 3 meters from the stage. What a night. I'm 52 now and that night in 1987, 35 years ago is still one of the most memorable nights of that time of my life. That's what they call 'the time of your life'. And that it was. Thanks for the memories Dusty, go on as long as you can Billy and Frank. you guys are something else. I am P.A.L, count on it...
Saw them back in like....03. Freaking awesome concert. They pulled up on Harleys and a 40 Mercury lead sled, and pulled pink fuzzy guitars out of the trunk then opened with this song. My 2 and 3 year old daughters were hooked on classic rock for the rest of their lives to date
The start seems like her Elm Street's nightmares, poor Heather, unlucky teenie... Anyway, electrizing performances for all the staff who's playing in that excellent ZZ Top music video!!! John Dye rest in peace. A fan from switzerland.
Fun guest stars in this video: Heather Lagenkamp (from Nightmare on Elm Street) & the guy in the Blue truck with the floppy hat & red plaid shirt is in a lot of Jonathan Demme movies: Philadelphia, Silence of the Lambs, etc... can't get enonugh of this song- LOVE IT!!
I did not know that John Dye, the actor from Touched by an Angel, was in this video. R.I.P. He died 1/10/2011. I always thought he was so handsome. This video was a core memory for me. I was 12 years old. Cool video, AMAZING band.
Amazing track! Listening to this gem in honor of ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill! RIP Dusty, one of the greatest bass guitarists ever. You will be fondly remembered forever and shall never be forgotten!
FUCKING awesome guitar solo that only Billy could achieve, that grunge heavy tone is so good, the prelude to their best guitar based album RHYTHMEEN!!!
This is a very crazy random video but very cool when the guys in ZZ-Top stepped in to help & provided them with everything they needed to survive which was very dope of them! RIP Dusty Hill! Forever listen to ZZ-TOP I will till God calls me home!
I'm into heavy metal since I watched in a Greek tv show this song, along with Priest, Saxon, Krokus etc that time. I Was almost 15. Thank you guys and beardless Frank Beard...
The very next video they made in continuity with the space ship was Rough Boy. I have a woodshop and I somehow rediscovered Rough Boy this past year and I put it in my playlist and listen to it while I work. There won't be another ZZ Top in my lifetime. RIP Dusty.
No denying the originality of Zig Zag Pot aka ZZ TOP from the riffs, beats, harmonies, melodies, lyrics, vocals, song writing, choreography, guitar, bass, drums, hot women, cheap special effects, 6 decades of bad ass rock & roll
Ay ZZ Top, eres único. Tus videos son fantásticos. Tu estilo de ropa tiene clase. Me gusta tu estilo de rock, me emociona mucho. Me acompañaste en mi juventud y hasta ahora te tengo en mi memoria.
Wow, I didn't realize Heather Langenkamp plays the young woman in the video! She had to contend with Freddy Krueger TWICE and also thieves. Girl had it rough in the mid-80s!
Since I was an 80's MTV kid I always found it odd the only guy in the band without a beard is the drummer Frank Beard.. Rock in Heaven Dusty Hill 🙏😇🎙️ 🎸🎵🎼🎶
I seen ZZ Top about 45 years ago at the Atlanta Stadium it was a long way from us but we could barely see them that we heard them well and with ZZ Top they was the amazing Rhythm Aces Third Rate Romance that's what song they did that was their hit at the time and Elvin Bishop the the album struttin my stuff they played songs from that and from other albums Elvin Bishop good but ZZ Top they're awesome and the Marshall Tucker Band they was great Fire on the Mountain and searching for a rainbow that was the album at that time they were great 2 I think it was the early 80s I saw ZZ Top at the Fox Theater three nights in a row the light show was cool they are one of my favorite bands their number two out of five 5 groups but Tony Joe White was the man I called him the blues master I listen to him for about 50 years I am his biggest fan he died at the age of 75 years old when he died I saw him 19 times check him out he has written about 600 songs in his career Tina Turner did several John Anderson Waylon James John Mayer the old John Mayer and many more check him out if you like ZZ you will like Tony Joe White may he rest in peace

80s ZZ Top is wild. It's still obviously Boogie Rock at the heart but with a bunch of 80s glam on top.. and that's not even talking about the videos. I love it!
HEATHER LANGENKAMP! Being SAVED by dudes who arrive when she sleeps - hahaha and before she made Nightmare on Elm Street - awesome! Every day's a school day
It’s been a year since Dusty Hill passed away and I can’t believe it’s been a year already. It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long and time is so quick.
I've long been a ZZ fan. I went to school in west Houston with one of their kids. I prefer several of their other hits, but this video is just plain cool.
I grew up in Louisiana in the seventies. I would ride my bike to Gibson's Department store with a few bucks to purchase their newest albums. Still my favorite band.

Each ZZ Top video is like a mini movie. It tells a story. Music videos of the 80's were like that.
People don’t realize that at one time MatV was both fun and entertaining.
It is reason why ZZ-top music videos never dated.
They're all the same
Yeah. Remember when MTV used to play music videos. Me too.
Juuh on tullut nähtyä tämä musiikkivideo vuonna 1985 hittimittarissa
RIP Dusty Bro. You, your talent and contribution to music will always

were the soundtrack of my life and millions of others around the
world-Thank you. Dusty and ZZ Top define great music.
You can belive it or not, but ZZ Top made the most "80s-style" videos ever.
And having Heather Langenkamp on it is a sign of quality
Heather was in a Nightmare on Elm street is that right ?
@@paulreichelt1259 Yes.
Agree
Heather was like the Pre-'Scream Queen' queen of horror cinema right about then and ZZ Top had plenty Bux for the vid, so why not?
She was also in that 80's family sitcom "Just the Ten of Us" as the nerdy daughter

BabyBoomer Generation Done ✅ Best 👏🎶 With Rock And Roll 🎸🎤🥁😝👏
I love how they meld synths with the guitars really gives it a sonic flare.
ZZ TOP and that synth matched so good. Nothing against good ole ZZ TOP blues but this was the 80s and they rocked!
ZZ Top doing their best Art Of Noise impression. :) Thanks guys for the fun, and RIP Dusty.
I was thinking the same thing. This tune has a very Art of Noise feel to it, probably why I love it so much.
Rest in Power, Dusty.

Love the Nightmare on Elm Street reference at 0:57. Heather is a great actress.
I used to live a block away from the Nightmare on Elm Street house at 1428 N. Genesee in W. Hollywood.

I loved that gal from Nightmare on Elm Street when I was about 15. 💞
2:11 solo is one of the most important moments in music for me.
Still the most bad ass muscle machine ever created.
John Dye! He was the medical specialist from tv's Tour of Duty ... and THE Death Angel. He looks SO YOUNG here!
He passed far too young...
80s ZZ Top is wild. It's still obviously Boogie Rock at the heart but with a bunch of 80s glam on top.. and that's not even talking about the videos. I love it!
HEATHER LANGENKAMP! Being SAVED by dudes who arrive when she sleeps - hahaha and before she made Nightmare on Elm Street - awesome! Every day's a school day
Though that was her
One of the villains is actor Tracy Walter - he was in Repo Man and also appeared in Batman as Bob the Goon.

One Of My Favorites Albums ...Ever!!!!
It’s been a year since Dusty Hill passed away and I can’t believe it’s been a year already. It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long and time is so quick.
The girl in the sleeping bag is actress Heather Langenkamp. She played the character of Nancy in the original Nightmare On Elm Street.
I've long been a ZZ fan. I went to school in west Houston with one of their kids.
I prefer several of their other hits, but this video is just plain cool.
I grew up in Louisiana in the seventies. I would ride my bike to Gibson's Department store with a few bucks to purchase their newest albums. Still my favorite band.
