Other Preorders are set to release 'TBA.' This means that release date is yet 'To Be Announced'.

If a projected release date is known, we will include this in the description in red. Typically the label will set a projected release date (that is subject to change). Th is new LIVE GREATEST HITS FROM AROUND THE WORLD record should serve as ample proof of that.An In Stock item is available to ship normally within 24 business hours.Ī Preorder is an item that has not yet been released. I ‘ m so glad they are still around – just the three of them – still blast ing out their own style of rockin’ B lues and still having a blast doing it. They, like any band that has been around as long, will have their ups and downs, but they still manage to record some new stuff on occasion (their last album, LA FUTURA, came out in 2012). Frank B eard (the only member of ZZ Top without a beard!) is just fine, a powerful meat-and-potatoes type of drummer… steady as a rock. Personally, I find B illy to be one of the finest axem e n around, taking a backseat to no one. ZZ Top (Dusty Hill, Frank Beard, Billy Gibbons) (uncredited photo)īassist D usty H ill, the great stickman F rank B eard and G ibbons still rock with an unbridled wit and vigor and some of the coolest licks you’ll ever hear. Billy Gibbons and Beck have known each other for quite a long time and the former Yardbird has been a touring companion with the “Little Band From Texas” on more than one occasion. “Got Me Under Pressure,” “Cheap Sunglasses,” “Legs,” “Sharp Dressed Man, “La Grange,” and “Tube Snake Boogie” are all here and, so is guitar legend Jeff Beck, who joins the trio for “Rough Boy” and “Sixteen Tons” (yes… the Tennessee Ernie Ford song).

Their new live album, with songs recorded at tour stops all over the world (thus, the name) sounds great and is as fresh and as fun as the Tops have ever been… even after all this time. That in itself is great, much less that they are still rocking as hard as ever. After four-and-a-half decades (and counting), they have the distinction of being the longest running rock band with ALL its original members still going strong. ZZ Top are like an old friend… you just want to hang out with them and have a good time.
