‘You Can Hear The Hats & The Beards!’


ZZ Top’s US breakthrough came in 1973 - in the form of the short, but sweet ‘Tres Hombres’!

Tastefully and seamlessly combining Rock, Blues, Soul and Boogie, ZZ Top carried the torch for the traditional Blues/Soul efforts, but fused it with the 70s Hard Rock of the time, whilst also paving the way for many future Rock bands to adopt this multi-genre approach.

A simple album in sound and feel, yet a substantial and important effort from the famed Texans. Laz & Felipe look into this album!
