I've met ZZ Top. They are conservative 'ditto heads'.

ZZ Top is a hugely successful Texas-rock band who've been quite innovative over four decades in the music business

Their charm is based precisely on not being innovative, but on consistently providing a steady diet of bluesy boogie-rock year in and year out for 40+ years.

It changes constantly, but this my current favorite ZZ Top riff:

Pull on those strings with chip-on-shoulder ‘tude.

Gotta love that thundering bass rolling underneath the whole thing, as well.

I think “Fool For Your Stockings” is my ZZ Top favorite.

I can’t believe “Disco Duck” didn’t make the cut...what’s wrong with these people?!

And, for extra non-existent credit (except in your own trivia-loging mind) -
Which ZZ Top song was also known as “The God Drums” of Lud?

Saw them in 73/4. Tres-Hombres top 10 of all time albums. I really miss those albums that were good beginning to end.

I never hear a song from or an interview with ZZ Top that doesn’t impress me more.

One thing that helps is they stay strong. I saw them on the VH1 tribute a few years back. They blasted out Gimme All You’re Lovin’ and Cheap Sunglasses as great as they ever did, shaming Nickelback’s attempt at Sharp Dressed Man. Then Heart came up, Nancy did the guitar all right, but Anne just couldn’t do the vocals anymore, really blew Crazy on You. They should have retired a while ago.

Love me some ZZTop. Got to see them in concert in ‘86 in Shreveport, LA (Afterburner tour).
