ZZ TopIt’s easy to be cynical when a label releases a ‘best of’ from a band that has put their best days behind them. Fortunately this humorously titled ‘best of’ provides a great look at ZZ Top’s extensive back catalogue.
The album features the blues riffing boogie of early hits such as Legs, Sharp Dressed Man and Gimme All Your Lovin’. The inclusions of Tush, I Thank You and Just Got Paid remind the listener of the band’s witty sense of humour. ZZ Top brought their brand of blues boogie rock into the mainstream in the ‘80s and these bad boys have a healthy back catalogue to dive into.
