(Almost) Music Thursday

Slightly missed the right time of the week for this however better late than never ! Im going for a ZZ Top theme this week. The excellent blues infused rock of everyone's favorite southern rock band.

First up, ZZ Top - Concrete and Steel


I love this tune, it is in my top 10 favorite songs of all time (and is the most played song on my ipod). It is not a well known ZZ Top song, which is unfornate as I think its there best. Billy Gibons playing on this track is just sublime and the solos are blissful. 

Second is, ZZ Top - Heard it on the X



A song from earlier in their career, before the trilogy of Eliminator, Afterburner and Recycler. This song is a gem, once again demonstrating the band's mastery of the blues.

Last, but not least is ...

ZZ Top - Delirious



Alas, out of the two songs I have chosen this time none yet have demonstrated ZZ Top's lyrics at their dirty, crazy and hilarious best. The above song however ... Enjoy!
