	ZZ Top
		ZZ Top and their label, London, must have noticed this too, since even though the album went gold, they followed it months later with The Best of ZZ Top, which contained none of the songs from this album.
		ZZ Top closed out their tenure with London records in late 1977 with The Best of ZZ Top, a basic but terrific ten-song retrospective of highlights from their first five albums (well, four, actually, since the underwhelming Tejas is ignored).
		ZZ Top's long-awaited return to the blues finally arrived in 1996, well over a decade after they abandoned their simple three-chord boogie for a synth and drum machine-driven three-chord boogie.

		One of ZZ Top's great gifts is its concision; even in the side-long-jam era of the 1970s, the Texans almost always fit 10 cuts on their albums.
		ZZ Top, Mr Beard and the two with the beards were at first a gritty Texas rock band and in their latter days a pop rock chart success.
		ZZ Top has been keeping me awake at night grading student papers for almost two decades and if I am not mistaken, a vehicle that looks a lot like their snaZZy red vehicle was car of the year or something like that.

		FANDANGO, ZZ Top's fourth album, came out after five years of constant touring.
		While ZZ Top's early '70s studio albums were indeed great examples of the blues rock genre, the band's live shows were where the band really shined.
		This was the album that catapulted ZZ Top to the summit of the '70s rock mountain, mainly due to the rowdy monster hit "Tush," which remains in rotation on rock radio to this day.

	ZZ Top / Biografia / Discografia / Radio 2 Costa Rica / Clasicos / Oldies / Radio Dos
		ZZ Top toca boogie y blues tejano e indudablemente nadie lo hace mejor que “la pequeña banda de Texas”.
		La fórmula que ha hecho a ZZ Top diferente y popular está en los fieles que pueden ser al blues en lo musical y los sueltos que son los textos de sus canciones que hacen referencia a un doble sentido en lo sexual y a la diversión.
		ZZ Top arrancó en 1969 con la banda de blues psicodélico de Gibbons que por entonces se llamaba “Moving Sidewalks”.

		In 1976, ZZ Top made their first appearances in Europe, Australia and Japan as part of their Worldwide Texas Tour, which included 100 dates in the U.S. After a few more albums on London, including a greatest-hits collection, ZZ Top took a hiatus and then resurfaced on Warner Bros. in 1979 with Deguello.
		Sporting their trademark long beards and golf hats, ZZ Top made videos for three of the album's tracks that, while not very politically correct, featured the randy band with an assortment of beautiful ladies in amusing situations.
		ZZ Top's tour behind the album also was a major success.

	ZZ Top - Tres Hombres/Fandango! Expanded and Remastered - Warner Brothers Records - CD
		Their third album, Tres Hombres, released in 1973, climbed to the Top 10 on the strength of their breakthrough hit, “La Grange,” which sounded, interestingly, like Leon Redbone shucking the solo act and seeking his fortune in another way; of course, it isn’t Redbone on the vocals, but rather, guitar ace Billy Gibbons.
		Tres Hombres, with its storytelling tunes and ZZ Top’s jamming boogie, helped to augment the blossoming Southern Rock phase that was gaining popularity past the incredible work of The Allman Brothers Band, now schooling up and comers like The Marshall Tucker Band, Charlie Daniels, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Firefall, and The Outlaws, amongst others.
		Fandango!, the band’s 1975 album, was, as stated earlier, an album that mixed live performances with new studio material.

		A decade--or two--removed from their arena-rock prime and cartoonish MTV reincarnation, ZZ Top's music has mellowed like a case of three-dollar rotgut, which is how the blues should age.
		It all started with "Antenna"......that is, ZZ Top's return to their roots and their "raw" sound.
		ZZ Top is the essence of desert cool and "XXX" is testiment to that.

		Fandango is one of the heaviest of ZZ Top's recorded efforts.
		It is a consistently high-energy record, and though the group sticks to their usual bluesy formula, they occasionally crank it up to a level that could pass for metal circa 1975.
		The 3 bonus tracks, all live, are a nice treat for ZZ Top aficionados.

		This was the third ZZ Top album I purchased, the first 2 being Afterburner and Eliminator.
		Sort of like ZZ Top's first rock song, it was still powered by blues, but at heart I believe that it was really a rock song.

	Rolling Stone : ZZ Top: Fandango! : Music Reviews
		Fandango, their newest offering, includes one side of live material that makes their success all the more inexplicable, by featuring nine minutes of tomfoolery titled "Backdoor Medley," wherein the band simulates burping cows (which may not be so odd: An automotive executive recently claimed that belching cattle are a major source of air pollution).
		The ZZ formula runs something like this: Take a B.B. King blues lick, speed it up and amplify to a dull roar, overdub a gruff vocal and then garnish with a touch of maracas, tambourine or hand clapping.
		This can be called, accurately enough, pandering to an audience, but at least BTO, unlike ZZ Top, know how to wring the last dollop of dollars from their chosen formula.

	ZZ Top
		ZZ Top's First Album - Tres Hombres - Fandango!
		The album produced the instrumental-plus-voiceover hit "La Grange," based on a Slim Harpo riff earlier used by the Rolling Stones in "Hip Shake." Ranging from blues-rock to rock-blues, there's not as much variety as you might like (there is one unexceptional ballad, "Hot, Blue And Righteous") but it's consistently entertaining.
		But the album tracks are just like the hits only less catchy ("I Got The Six," "If I Could Only Flag Her Down"), making for a somewhat depressing overall listen.

		ZZ Top's third album, Tres Hombres was their breakthrough album and helped make them stars.
		The album peaked at number eight on the charts and is still the band's finest effort.
		I like ZZ Top's sound a lot even though I only remember having Eliminator on tape but I found that their production was too thin and slick for my tastes and some of the lyrics were pretty predictable/weak.

	Dean Artists - ZZ Top
		Originally conceived as a live album, X X X combines eight new studio tracks with four live selections, a blend that worked so well on 1975's "Fandango!" The concert tracks come from unannounced surprise club shows around the country.
		Of course, like most ZZ Top albums, X X X is not to be picked apart and analyzed.
		On the live side, we have "Sinpusher," a variation of the "Antenna" album's "Pincushion" because "one night we played it and forgot the words, and we liked this one better," Gibbons says.

	Fandango by ZZ Top CD
		This album (Release 4) drew even more listeners to ZZ after Tres Hombres, showing a new side, their LIVE side, which is STILL legendary.
		This album truly shows Billy's guitar skills and the bands virtuosity as a whole, showcasing their ability to go from slow,crunchy blues riffs to live full-tilt wild boogie...
		Their age in '74 when this album was released contributes to the high-amp level on the live tracks, and that same energy got a lot of people out to see them live, and become lifetime ZZ Fans.

	Fandango by ZZ Top CD
		I'm going to review this as a live album instead of a whole, cos that will take too long.
		FANDANGO is a great ZZ Top album, prevented from being one of their finest only by some less-than-stellar live cuts, because the studio songs are as good as anything on the first three albums or TEJAS.
		One of the best ZZtop, classical rock at the top (before they move to new technologie and rather different sound).

	ZZ Top
		ZZ Top were one of my favorite early-teen year bands (early 80s), but I haven't listened to them regularly in years...
		Judging by the performances and the packaging of the album, it feels like ZZ Top is still trying to keep one foot planted in their early, Texasy redneck bar band days, even while their actual concurrent material was already progressing much further.
		They do put their own ZZ Top stamp on the best material, but even the hits (aside from the idiosyncratic "Manic Mechanic") are pretty well planted in the soul/blues genres (though "Cheap Sunglasses" is quite a funky take on that genre).

		The album and its accompanying videos were ubiquitous in 1983,on television ZZ Top was seen on MTV, "St. Elsewhere", evenon the Tonight show.
		This is where ZZtop lost all credibility with me. Hard to believe that this is the same band that made 'rio grande' or 'tres hombres' the writing was on the wall with the album before but at least it had 'ten foot pole' but this it sucks from beginning to end.
		ZZ Top's previous albums had been eclectic to say the least, but always with that down south ingredient.
