Re: ZZtop

I kinda lost interest in ZZ after Eliminator -too disco-y for me , but I picked up a cheap copy of Rythmeen and tht's not too bad....
But their early stuff is what white boy, flat out, texas boogie/blues is all about!
MAn they were truly incredible for a three piece band.
Saw them first time in 1973 as the opening act for the final 10 Years After tour at Madison Square Garden. Billy blew Alvin away! Me and my buddies got back to our little hick town in up state NY and none of us could find their records. About 2 months after the show Tres Hombres came out.... Man did we rock out!!! Those were the F*@#ing days!
