12:36 here. You’re legit.
I think the whole thing about it actually being Friday somewhere in the world went out the window some time ago. But the justifications for continuing to post good music keep getting better (it’s Anti-Friday, “close enough”, comments came in later, “still the weekend”, etc.)
Bit of old school…
I did not come up liking or appreciating ZZ Top. Like in real life, I’m late to the party and confused…
But, finally, I’ve seen the light.
These guys destroy.
I bought Eliminator when it came out as a teen and loved it, but then got deep into other genres and haven’t really revisited since. So I am loving all the recent discussion.

the beards, cars and girls are still here. that’s fine.
all that matters, really
Gets a “like” for the “Mad Max” ladies
But, seriously, for someone fairly ignorant with this kind of music, when you say “late ZZ top”, when are we talking about?? 90’s?? I kinda seem to remember that video from when I was much younger
no, it’s much more recent ! this song is on Texicali, released in 2012.
you must make a confusion with this one which is on Eliminator (83). the video clip is pretty much the same :
(my last cover is from Eliminator too)
Oh, yeah, that’s got to be it
It’s Friday. Gonna push my luck a little bit.
This is hardly bass-relevant. But we play the bass to make music, right? Well, this, ladies and gentlemen, is music.
It is not jazz… it’s minimalist, orchestral, melancholic, poetic. mesmerising…
In my defence, there is an upright bass in there somewhere.
Gosh, it is only 11:30 am here, but I’d wish I had a big tumbler full of malt with me right now - that’d make it perfect
His last released original song.
Even this… I love her singing on this track.
