Legendary chemistry between all 3 band members! You can tell they really enjoyed playing together! This is them at the Top of their game, fantastic, crazy,and cool!
True Legends! 12 at that time, recall hearing the sound of this powerful trio for the first time on the radio, revolutionary to me. so different, so fresh, could not be cooler... Made you want to grow a beard so bad... On pouvait sortir quelques bonnes émissions musicales à l'époque sur la télé française.... those days are defineltly gone... I miss You Dusty!
Too see ZZ Top in 1983 on their Eliminator tour was the epitome of cool. I saw them at the Kingswood Music Theatre near Toronto, Quiet Riot opened the show. That was rock and roll baby!
@@dustzza123 CCR was a trio for only one album, and with the exception of only one song, "Sweet Hitch-Hiker".....an absolutely terrible album, and it proved to be their undoing. What a magnificent band to come crashing down like that.🎸
ZZ top was probably the first band to play with tracks live, either that or they are hiding a keyboard player under the stage. I saw them live one time and they did have a keyboard player side stage playing stuff, but pretty interesting setup. Love this band
Man Dusty was such a fucking killer vocalist!! Billy is too of course!! Its just so cool that both of them have HUGE songs they sing on... So awesome. I remember the first time I heard Tush and La Grange.. did know it was the same band lol 🤣🤣 now that's when u know its special
This is what happens when you sell out to a foreign TV, air performance !! Billy isnt even playing on the right fret, solo' in the dark, vocals 2 feet away from the mic with his face turned . But barring that i have seen them 9 times live My favorite band 3 times over !!
WoW..... what else is there to say after hearing guitar sounds like that. Billy noticably a bit heavier here.... nearly as heavy as Dusty. lol Billy obviously was putting away the mexican food in '83. What an awesome guitarist. R. I. P. Dusty 🇨🇱Hill
Man thank you so much this is so amazingly awesomely awesomeness! We do cover heaps of they set list here in South Australia 🇦🇺 love ZZTop so much ! I’ve got that same exactly hat
At one of their Houston shows they had east-west and west-east conveyors on the stage. But I can't find any videos to back that up. Anyone else have that recall?
@@phillipriggs3375: You're very welcome Phillip...I was there at the Summit in Houston + saw em two more times using the belts...I was blown smooth away at how cool it looked...Genius...They used em in 90-92...Cheers my fellow ZZ fan...
Back when people were waiting 10 mos for a new 3rd gen Z28 to show up from the factory and the Summit wasnt a fake church it was the church of rock lol
Yeah,Dusty pulled the Derenger out of his boot,dropped it and the gun went off.He was hit in the abdomen.He was rushed to the hospital with a non-life threatening injury. I bet Dusty didn't think so,watcha wanna bet? I have read he will bet on just about anything.I wish I had that kind of money!!!

I saw them at Red Rocks in June that year - one of the best trios ever with an explosive stage presence!
"one" of the best trios? How many are there?
@@rmat.847 Cream, Rush “I hate rush”, CCR, Genesis, Foo Fighters “only one album”.

What a magnificent band to come crashing down like that.🎸
@@rmat.847 The Police, Rush, Cream, Grand Funk, Mountain, Bang, Budgie, ELP, I could go on but I won't. ZZ Top was the best along with Rush.
Beard is one of the best rock drummers ever!
One of the greatest bands ever.

man, this was good!
First time I saw them was in 83 in Birmingham Alabama
Thanks for the upload. A great documentary - lots of live footage.
Back when America was America.
Ok. Thanks. Yeah I remember when I heard it on the news at that time.
Good ole Summit, now it’s a profit church, Have Mercy!
I saw ZZ TOP at the Summit in 95 or 96, before it was the Oasis of Love, or Lakewood or whatever. Great show.
Funny beard gets strung out on heroin and other two are pretty tame. They look like the outlaws but are classiest guys in rock. Glad Frank kicked it.
Great
Video isn't synced very well to the audio, Amigo
WAIT.. does NOBODY see the person hanging from the lighting rig that drops at the end of the video?? Definitely died..

Human sacrifice. Happens at every ZZ Top concert.
is this in playback?

Phillip Riggs I’ve seen it on youtube.
@@fpt264 any details?
Here is one... ua-cam.com/video/Y_9iB6wlNcc/v-deo.html
@@if6turnedouttobe9 Yes that was the tour. Here in Houston they played on the sidewalks thru the whole show. THANK YOU!

It was Dusty. I read about it some month ago. Cant remenber if it was in guitarworld or on the net but it was Dusty.
Clearly some lip sych and overdubbing with the vocals - guitar work outstanding though
It's not lip sync or overdubbing. The video and audio are out of sync.
Ya, don’t ever accuse ZZ of lip synching!!
Yep. There are extra guitar parts that aren’t even close to what’s going on the fretboard.

I wanna say that it was Billy but I'm not sure. Anybody remember when one of them shot himself? I think his gun was in his boot.
That was Dusty...
cjjaxxon Dusty.
Yeah,Dusty pulled the Derenger out of his boot,dropped it and the gun went off.He was hit in the abdomen.He was rushed to the hospital with a non-life threatening injury.
I bet Dusty didn't think so,watcha wanna bet?
I have read he will bet on just about anything.I wish I had that kind of money!!!
