ZZ Top Day!

from The Musicscope Minute · host Mike Grubb

In 1991, Texas governor Ann Richards declared May 4th ZZ Top day. The band was formed in Houston by Dusty Hill, Frank Beard, and Billy Gibbons. Gibbons’s former band had toured with Jimi Hendrix and the two became friends, experimenting with effects pedals together. ZZ Top still tours playing all their hits like LaGrange, Cheap Sunglasses, Legs and Sharp Dressed Man.
