Yeah, they still do it for me too. Still get goose bumps everytime I hear the guitar solo to "Jesus Just Left Chicago". Wicked, just wicked! Incidentally, I believe ZZ Top is touring with Ted Nugent and Kenny Wayne Sheppard this summer. You never know who might show up at a ZZ Top show. Jeff Beck has been known to come out of his garage long enough to play a show or two with ZZ Top. One can only hope.
Yes indeed...ZZ Top has a new album, Mescalero, but it's on hold. RCA's Clive Davis wants to "Supernatural" it with guests. You can find Mescalero on Kazaa.
As fer the Zep...I listened to the CD set this afternoon and started on the DVD (although I can't watch it now, must work). In My Time of Dying - the hair on my arms are standing up....
I got back into listtening to r'nr a year or two ago, it's great for driving a car to.
Faves: Led Zep, ZZ Top, Johnnny Winter, North Mississippi Allstars, Capt. Beefheart (harmolodic rock?), Robin Trower, Hendrix, Jeff Beck and a few other's ah can't think of right now.
