    One of the finest 3 person bands playing southern/Texas blue/rock music. I always hate fade out to songs where the guitar is screaming! Let ‘‘em play!!

    My pops grew up with Billy’s guitar tech and whenever they come around Baltimore we usually hang out….have gotten very stoned with Mr.Gibbons…he’s awesome, great man

    The great Jimi Hendrix gave props to Billy Gibbons for his guitar playing, quite the honor. These guys are bluesy southern rock and yes they were inducted into the hall of fame in 2004

    I have been fortunate to have seen “That Little Ol’ Band From Texas” Live 4 times. I recorded the last show (Full HD) before Dusty passed away. Always an awesome show. You must see many other tunes from them including “Rough Boy” (official video)…. “Same three guys, same three cords, for five decades” - Billy Gibbons at last show.

    What I love is you are getting all of this hard hitting southern rock from just 3 guys, guitar, bass and drums. Stripped down rock at its best.

    Hendrix was asked “what’s it like being the world’s greatest guitarist?”…he replied, you should ask Billy Gibbons

    The Chicken Ranch, house of prostitution outside LaGrange, Texas is what this song is about. It closed the year I graduated from high school, 1973. Never went, but friends of my older brothers went. Been thru LaGrange hundreds of times. Saw them in concert at The Summit in Houston. Great band!

    One of my favorites ever, ZZ Top is the sh*t.

    Well I have a lot of nostalgic memories tied to Sharp Dressed Man and touching that kind of thing but man, it's not that the older stuff was blues and changed, that early shit was blues-rock man and it was that Texas ZZ Top kind of rock.
    And yeah, a lot of us like the early stuff better because it's just harder. It's not as pop. It's as simple as that.
    But if you like ZZ Top you like ZZ Top. I mean I've been to a biker wedding where the wedding procession down the aisle was literally, Sharp Dressed Man. And groom had on one of those t-shirts that has a tuxedo printed on the front of it and his bride was in kind of a loose-fitting hippie dress except that it showed off her boobs and it was kind of short and that's what they literally danced down the aisle to to go up and get married. So there's a place in a time for everything no doubt.
    If you want to see how much they can blaze though, check out I heard it on the X. It's got both of them going at it vocally and it's a true story of where they got their roots and it's got the most amazing fastrip ever. The day I learned how to play that I was in absolute heaven.
    And of course you got to check out cheap Sunglasses and Pearl Necklace and We Bad, We Nationwide and all those man.

    Ironically the drummer’s name is Frank Beard 🤔 🤷🏻‍♂️
    They have a cameo in Back To The Future part III

    That's one of my favorite albums. By anyone. I've always replaced it when I wore it out, broke, or lost a copy.
    Worth a complete listen from start to finish. I've heard you mention how much you love the blues. This album is right up your alley.

    And the drummer that doesn't have a long beard, his name is Frank Beard!! 😅🤣
    My sis' fav!! This played, volume up, she'd start dancing, if seated like driving, she was still dancing!! 💃🤩🥳
    Miss her.
    RIP Dusty and Suzi. 🥺

    Next ZZ Top. From their first album Brown Sugar
    B TW the Hoow Hooow Hooow in the intro is an homage to the
    John Lee Hooker song Boom Boom Boom (You should definitely react to that)

  • @stevedahlberg8680

    Just getting ready to watch it in the intro part, but you did point out that the only guy without a beard is the drummer but you forgot to point out the irony of his name being Frank Beard. Lol lol.

    Just discovered your chanel. But don't see any Dire Straits. How about Telegraph Road or Tunnel of Love? Superb Guitar driven music. Rock gods in the late 70's 80's here in the UK. LOVED your Comfortably numb with your Mum video. 👍🎸🎸

    Billy Gibbons is in my top 10 guitar players. "TV Dinners" has some of the dumbest lyrics, but great guitar playing. Check it. If you want blues, try "Blue Jean Blues", "I Need You Tonight" and "2,000 Blues"

    I don't care for the remix version here. They've added Echo. It's lost its gritty originality. If I didn't love the song I wouldn't complain. ✌️

    As an FYI maybe off live feed. Look up a guitarist named Kent Nishimura. 25 or 6 to 4 is a great one. Just amazing talent. Let's get him seen and heard by you and some likes and more noticed.. thank you. Love your look of joy listening to music when I was your age and younger and felt the same
