I gave you a like, because that's exactly what I used to think for at least a decade (I first listened to
ZZ Top when I was about nine or ten years old - my uncle had bought me the
Sixpack CD box for Christmas).
However - over the years I warmed up to the albums of their synthesizer/drum machine period (
Eliminator,
Afterburner,
Recycler). They have never been real favourites of mine, but they are pretty decent and there are quite a few catchy tunes on them.
But, of course, you're right -
ZZ Top, that's rough and loud Blues Rock. Period. Give me
Fandango! any day!
