'San Antonio - ZZ TOP a/k/a “That Little Ol’ Band From Texas”,
lay undisputed claim to being the longest running major rock band with
original personnel intact and in 2004 the Texas trio was inducted into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Of course, there are only three
of them – Billy F Gibbons, Dusty Hill, Frank Beard -- but it’s still a
remarkable achievement that they’re still very much together after more
than 40 years of rock, blues, and boogie on
the road and in the studio. With the release of each of their albums
the band has explored new ground in terms of both their sonic approach
and the material they’ve recorded. ZZ TOP is the same but always
changing.
The elements that keep
ZZ TOP fresh, enduring and above the transitory fray can be summed up in
the three words of the band’s internal mantra: “Tone, Taste and
Tenacity.” The three members of the band have done
their utmost to do their part in assuring that ZZ TOP prevails.
In 2012, ZZ Top released La Futura,
the band’s first album in nine years. Four of that album’s tracks were
gathered under the title Texicali and released digitally in the spring
of 2012. Those four tracks,
“I Gotsta Get Paid,” “Chartreuse,” “Over You” and “Consumption”
confirmed the hopes of their legion of fans: the band’s sound is
stronger than ever and their approach is as ‘down and dirty’ as it was
42 years ago.
ZZ TOP’s music is
instantly recognizable, eminently powerful, profoundly soulful and 100%
Texas American in derivation. They have sold millions of records over
the course of their career, have been officially
designated as Heroes of The State of Texas, have been referenced in
countless cartoons and sitcoms and are true rock icons but, against all
odds, they’re really just doing what they’ve always done.
They’re real
and they’re surreal and they’re ZZ TOP.'
