Genre: Rock, Pop/Rock, Blues-Rock, Music Video | Label: Warner Music Vision They're
all here! ZZ Top's greatest videos, a groundbreaking collection from
the band that made chopped cars, great-looking girls, and fur-covered
guitars an art form all their own. Right from the start, with "Gimme All
Your Lovin'" and the rest of the Eliminator trilogy - "Sharp Dressed
Man" and "Legs" - ZZ Top has pioneered the high-concept video. And
they're still doing it today with "Viva Las Vegas,"
shot on the strip.From the deep-space weirdness of "Rough Boy" to the
chain gang blues of "My Head's in Mississippi"; from the in-concert
electricity of "Stages" to the Paula Abdul-choreographed "Velcro Fly,"
ZZ Top has always been in video's vanguard. In fact, they performed at
the first-ever MTV Awards, where the radio city music hall audience
seemed to spontaneously sprout chin whiskers. Who said video fans are
passive? Certainly not ZZ's!Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, and Frank Beard
have pushed the envelope of rock's visual potential, and here's proof.
This
sturdy American blues-rock trio from Texas consists of Billy Gibbons
(guitar), Dusty Hill (bass), and Frank Beard (drums). They were formed
in 1970 in and around Houston
from rival bands the Moving Sidewalks (Gibbons) and American Blues
(Hill and Beard). Their first two albums reflected the strong blues
roots and Texas humor of the band. Their third album (Tres Hombres)
gained them national attention with the hit "La Grange," a signature
riff tune to this day, based on John Lee Hooker's "Boogie Chillen."
Their success continued unabated throughout the '70s, culminating with
the year-and-a-half-long Worldwide Texas Tour.
Exhausted from the
overwhelming workload, they took a three-year break, then switched
labels and returned to form with Deguello and El Loco, both harbingers
of what was to come. By their next album, Eliminator, and its worldwide
smash follow-up, Afterburner, they had successfully harnessed the
potential of synthesizers to their patented grungy blues groove, giving
their material a more contemporary edge while retaining their patented
Texas style. Now sporting long beards, golf hats, and boiler suits, they met the emerging video age head-on, reducing their "message" to simple iconography.
Becoming
even more popular in the long run, they moved with the times while
simultaneously bucking every trend that crossed their path. As genuine
roots musicians, they have few peers; Gibbons is one of America's finest
blues guitarists working in the arena rock idiom - both influenced by
the originators of the form and British blues-rock guitarists like Peter
Green - while Hill and Beard provide the ultimate rhythm section
support.
The only rock & roll group that's out there with its
original members still aboard after three decades (an anniversary
celebrated on 1999's XXX), ZZ Top play music that is always instantly
recognizable, eminently powerful, profoundly soulful, and 100-percent
American in derivation. They have continued to support the blues through
various means, perhaps most visibly when they were given a piece of
wood from Muddy Waters' shack in Clarksdale, MS. The group members had
it made into a guitar, dubbed the "Muddywood," then sent it out on tour
to raise money for the Delta Blues Museum. ZZ Top's support and link to
the blues remains as rock solid as the music they play. A concert CD and
DVD, Live from Texas, recorded in Dallas in 2007 and featuring a still
vital band, were both released in 2008.
