• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

ZZTop!

Got to see the boys again last night here in Knoxville. They put on a fabulous show. Billy did a few more extended solos on a number of tunes. I think he was energized by an appreciative crowd.

They played at least three tunes that were new to me. Perhaps from their upcoming album, not sure. Good stuff.

Just had to shout about it. They are my favorite band. What a rhythm machine they are. :2zone

Oh, the BillyBo got most of the time.

Billy and the boys been teasin' and pleasin' over four decades. Not bad for a 'lil ol' band from Texas.

Somebody recently posted a link to ZZ Top's original mixes -- from vinyl (I'm pretty sure that didn't last long). I gave a couple of cuts a listen. "Francene" never sounded better.

Yes -- but not in decades! This dates me, but we could hear Mexican radio on AM when I was a teenager, and from time to time that and other American songs would come on in Spanish.

Wow -- I haven't thought about that in a long, long time. :peace2
