Album Notes
ZZ Top: Billy Gibbons (vocals, guitar); Dusty Hill (vocals, bass); Frank Beard (drums, percussion).Having avoided the fate of many '70s boogie bands, which became confounded by the new wave direction popular music took in the '80s, ZZ Top continued incorporating synths and mechanized beats into its sturdy blues-rock sound well into the '90s. On its 14th studio album, the "Lil Ole Band From Texas" continues dabbling with the sounds of technology. Merging Billy Gibbons' dirty-sounding fuzz guitar with chugging beats, ZZ Top creates songs such as "Crucifixx A Flatt" and "Dreadmonboogaloo" that wouldn't sound out of place at a rave. Elsewhere, the Texas trio pays homage to its blues roots, particularly on the grinding "Fearless Boogie" and the slow burn of "Made Into a Movie."The last quarter of XXX brings together live cuts that evidence ZZ Top's split personality as blues mavens and samplers of the Silicon Age. The more traditional segment finds Elvis Presley's normally finger-snapping "(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear" transformed into drawn-out 12-bar blues while Gibbons tears up the sublimely lascivious shuffle "Belt Buckle" with some impressive work on slide guitar. The remaining two numbers are a chugging version of "Pincushion" renamed "Sinpusher" and the faster-moving "Hey Mr. Millionaire," featuring a barely discernible Jeff Beck on vocals.

Excellent cd! "XXX" has a sound that will instantly remind you of ZZ Top's earliest releases. Every song is rowdy, every song has outstanding guitar work and that recognizable swagger that the boys from Texas have been providing for decades. If you have the early titles and think that the bands 80's and 90's years weren't really for your tastes, and you haven't listened to this yet, then do yourself a big favor and give it a try...the die-hard, old-school ZZ fans will love this, and all of us younger guys who were first turned onto Top in the early 80's (Eliminator) will absolutely love the rhythm, the guitar work and rock and swagger of this cd too. Plus, if you take a look, the price is certainly right!

) I really have been searching high and low for this particular selection from one of my most favorite groups of all time, on VINYL (and I am still searching for it on LP). I purchased it when it was first released back in 98 or 99, on CASSETTE, but now since the total conversion to CD's I had to have it at least on CD before it would maybe become totally obsolete, and I finally managed to get it on CD and now I'm very happy.
