Their early records are great.
Cheers.
They've just announced
A headline at Live at the Marquee in Cork. I'm 30 'years waiting to catch them live. The early stuff was excellent right enough.
Agreed on the earliest stuff being the best
But I'm more than a tad partial to a bit of Afterburner and Eliminator too.
Isn't that included in the early stuff?
I'd consider anything following Afterburner as 'recent'. No?
Well they released seven albums before those two, so I wouldn't call them particularly early myself.
Late Jurassic period....
They've released an album in 2012 while Eliminator was released in 1983 - with 5 or 6 albums since, good early-mid yeah?
Just Got Paid
Tres Hombres innit
anyone got the new one? Might see if it's on deezer now...
Classic guitar tone and some pretty good songs.
I like it and def think its worth checking out. Fits real nice into their discography.
yeah^^^^^
Rick Rubin things always sound a bit flat but the guitar does sound ace. I say Rick Rubin things, he doesn't really do any engineering or owt anymore. Just sits and strokes his beard. But you know.
Tres Hombres & Deguello still me favs.
Listening now
It needs a bit more oomph, for sure. Very trebly. Gotsta Get Paid might be the best track I've heard all year on reflection.
yeah it is ace that one
I think maybe we were spoiled with the production of tres hombres, that thing still sounds amazing
How many bands into the 5th decade of their career could carry off a cover of a crack-rap anthem?
Not many, I'd wager. This is quality: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2012/nov/08/zz-top-dalis-of-delta?fb=native&CMP=FBCNETTXT9038
Whereas this is just off the chain awesome: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/nov/03/david-lynch-zz-top-machines?intcmp=239
