ZZ Top - Live From Texas (DVD, 2008)

ZZ Top, the "little ol' band from Texas", has enjoyed enormous success on a global scale since their breakthrough in the early seventies and then their groundbreaking albums in the mid-eighties. Now for the first time one of ZZ Top's legendary live performances has been filmed for simultaneous release on DVD & Blu-ray. The track listing spans their career from early tracks such as "Waitin' For The Bus", "Just Got Paid" and the classic "La Grange", through their eighties blockbusters including "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and "Legs" (complete with furry guitars!) and up to more recent hits like "Pin Cushion". Filmed in their home state of Texas in front of a wildly enthusiastic audience, this DVD & Blu-ray captures ZZ Top at their very best.

I am really pleased with this DVD. It has almost all the hits that you've heard on the radio. You can find the tracklisting on Amazon or another online site.
My apprehension at a ZZ Top concert DVD is because I have seen them before in footage where they changed the song too much...or did half-hearted attempts. Not HERE.
This concert was done in their home state so they mighta been on their best performance. Tight songs...anything added is just icing on a cake. Songs sound GREAT.
The only thing that I would change is if they were to have made the concert even longer, including some of their lesser-known hits like "I Thank You", "Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers", and included some deeper album cuts like "Hot, Blue And Righteous"....
The bonus feature is a fairly lengthy discussion among the 3, talking about certain tours and their early days.

Classic rock at it's best....The wedding scene was great..ZZ at their best...Great sound, Loved the audience feedback....I've been a fan, and I really wanted this concert........I've seen them live three times, and never disapointed...Best band, VERY COOL!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent Video Quality & Superb Audio Mix, Great Set List & "Extras" Must Have For All ZZ Top Fans (That Own A Blu Ray Player)! 5 Stars!
