    I've found that ZZ Top's greatest hits are a multi-generational crowd pleaser. Many will love it, some will tolerate, none will hate.

    I can't think of any other band - besides maybe Aerosmith - where I love the early to mid 70s body of work but hate their 80s phase. The Best of ZZ Top which covers everything from the 1st four albums is flawless. But mang do I loathe 80s ZZ Top.

    They were just way cooler wearing nudie suits and before the old testament beards...

    I am impugning Eliminator. Deguello was the end of me liking their sounds.

    Don't get me wrong, IFL synthesizers, but not on ZZ top.

    Along with CCR, I’ve always thought they sucked.

    Not really true. I like Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, the Beatles (some), Rolling Stones, some Dylan, Neil Young, David Bowie, the Eagles (some) and many others that fit into old white men music.

    You guys sometimes grate on me because you are 40-60 white dudes who basically follow the 40-60 white guy code. Scotch, beer, guns, every popular 70’s rock band, war buffs, couldn’t name a rock band from 2010 on... The 40-60 year old white dude starter pack.

    Still love you guys. BFF, ttyl 😘😘😘.
    Fuck off

    I love GLocks & The Weeknd.

    Sorry dude I like what I like. Can I ask that you please refrain from insulting me for it, turn the other cheek, and allow me to talk shit about you for your taste?

    Hurtful. Really hurtful. I have lots of vinyl from post 2010 rock groups.

    Burned a few Amps and blew a few tweeters and woofers to ZZ back in the day, especially from Eliminator.

    You’ll be there in the same position roadie not too far off with the generation behind you talking the same shit. Hopefully.
