      One of my greatest memories. My Dad, brother, and I (all heavily bearded men), were all going to a blues concert in a Chrysler 300. It dawns on me half way there, three men like us, going to a blues show in a big body Chrysler show car. All we needed to do was start saying "how-how-how" and start wearing shades in the dark.

    This, and Legs, were the first mainstream videos to use frame snaps of under one second, on average. All music videos adopted this format from then on. ZZ Top created the dopamine hit video, and it's now a world wide epidemic as social media has taken it to the next level. It all started with their videos.

    Being here because today I will go back into my parent's house to finally move in after my dad died three years ago. He was a huuuuge ZZ Top Fan and I heard the song before but never saw the video. A similar ZZ shaped key ring pendant was with him everywhere he went and now it's on my keys. Never new they used a similar one in this video but now I know why dad got it. Thinking of you everyday, Dad.

    These guys are one of if not the most badass looking band to emerge from the vastly-encompassing umbrella term for what would be considered "classic rock".

    • @tomowenpianochannel
      @tomowenpianochannel Рік тому +1

      Totally agree, they were minimalists. Although in blues, rock and electronica (mix of sonic styles), the instrumentation, drums, vocals are just enough. They leave you wanting more. That's probably the secret, although it was already a magic formula, just enhanced.

  • @coolcat6303

      +Tobias Chance Given that I've detected a bit of a running theme in ZZ Top's videos (unpopular/nerdy loser type gets bullied for being unpopular/nerdy loser type, but then is transformed by a change of clothes and the power of rock into the person who gets ALL the girls/guys worth having and gets to rub it in their bullies' noses, and also get a ride in Eliminator with three smokin' chicks), I wonder if maybe the boys themselves were a bit of the shy, unpopular, nerdy types in high school...

      @coolcat6303 9 років тому +1

      rdfox76 That's true & a definite possibilty. But it's hard to imagine those guys as anything but cool. Maybe it was all those catchy songs, great guitar & awesome beards that ultimately transformed them into the badasses they are today. LoL

    • @guitar19971
      @guitar19971 9 років тому +8

      +KoolCat ! The vast majority of people who are considered "cool" in adulthood were nerdy and unpopular in their teens especially when it comes to rock and roll musicians. Most forms of rock music are made for outsiders, the ones who never fit in with any other crowd and were usually picked on by the self elected popular crowd.

    • @coolcat6303
