ZZ Top is my favorite all time band, I love all their songs. Period.
Of all their albums, I like Eliminator the best. (Maybe because I'm a motorhead at heart)
I'll never forget some bozo standing next to me at one of their concerts back in the early '90's. He kept hitting me saying "Look! Fuzzy Guitars!"...."Look, Pyrotechnics!"...."Look! Moving Sidewalks!" all through the concert. I was ready to just haul off and deck the guy about 1/3 of the way through the concert.
The best part was taking my kids to a ZZ Top concert at our City Market down by our historic riverfront last summer. I figured I was kind of a bad parent for taking my kids to a concert like this...until I found a bunch of other parents my age with their kids. We all congregated together and formed a BIG group of kids in the center of the concert open area, surrounded by parents on the outside of them. Essentially, we "circled the wagons". My kids really don't like ZZ Top like I do, but they still sing all the songs with me and now they like talking about the fuzzy guitars, etc.
My more favorite songs of theirs are:
-- I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide
-- Got Me Under Pressure
-- Sharp Dressed Man
-- Tush
-- Legs
-- Cheap Sunglasses
-- Just Got Paid Today
-- La Grange
-- Antenna Head

FINALLY got to see them in concert last year March. Only 1 thing wriong with it and it wasnt ZZTops fault....all the women my age? Dressing like they did when they songs being played first came out. (Sorry, but 63 yr olds in mini-skirts and halter tops is NOT eye-candy.) Good thing about the concert? 19 yr old females recently discovering ZZTop, dresiing like the women who were my age were dressed,
