Just listening to this now after hearing about Dusty sadly passing away today. Rock on Dusty - your music will live on and on. Great music never dies x
U r correct;;;; Some music will ALWAYS be here. ZZ Top & Led Zeppelin;;;;;;; know damn well that’s playing way up there above ALL OUR HEADS!!! Rock On Dusty!!!
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.
It still blows me away that just 3 guys could deliver so much solid music for so many years. Frank's ability to drum is just incredible. I remember seeing them around the Clear Lake (you know where I'm talking about) real often and getting a chance to talk with them on occasion.
ZZ Top carved out their own niche. Tracks like this are industrial strength boogie. Riffs that simple and that memorable are incredibly difficult to do, but they made a career out of them. This is stuff that will last.
Just heard of the passing of Dusty Hill, he has spent the last 50 years rocking. May Heaven love ZZ Top as much as I do. Hope to see and hear them back together after God calls everyone home.
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.
So much influence in my young life. The '33 Coupe, the girls, the music. Everything a young guy could dream of. I had a '55 Chevy with a 327 and 4 speed muncie in high school in '85 and Eliminator was blasting out of my tape deck! Your damn straight those were good times!!!
I was born in ‘85 and I remember my mom had the cassette and playing this in the 80 something Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon 😅 She passed away 2 years ago from heart failure and diabetes but I will never forget the great memories and music from my childhood. I think music is our only real time machine. 😊
Lived in Texas 26 years, ZZ Top ruled the air waves…. Simply close your eyes and listen for those magnificent guitar riffs !!! RIP Dusty, gone to soon…
I really like that in their videos they are helping people down on their luck rather than parading around the city showing off their bling and superfluous excess.
He might be physically gone from this world.. but records like this will make him, billy and frank live forever ♥️💛 Thanks for all the memories Dusty of listening to your music with a cold beer. Rest easy bud.
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". I like how they're just holding the groove and jamming in the background during everyone's bluesy night out on the town haha. One of my favorite boogie/hard rock bands.
I was painfully shy & a total nerd back in the 80's. So I could've really used ZZ Top's fashion advice & their sweet SWEET ride to help me out with the ladies.
+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...
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
+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.
man what a riff. the vocals. it all ties in together. zz top brothers. they had it all. they had it going on. a tall glass of whiskey is always in order.
I remember in the 80's, the three video's of Sharp, Gimme & Legs were all released on MTV together, as a trio. Immediately, the ENTIRE world became instant ZZ Top fans!!! Happy memories of my youth 🎸💖
Used to be a bass player for a band a few years ago we played this tune and it always killed. Always loved Dustys thundering bass lines and tone. Just added a instant authority of epic. RIP.
Talented, creative, and fun to listen to, they are unique and are as down to earth as your best friend. The riffs and the ladies kind of keep your interest but you can't sit still while they are playing, can you? Also, a few days fro now you'll find yourself saying,"every girl's crazy " bout' the Sharp Dressed Man. Love these guys !
Fun fact. ZZ top still has a warehouse full of cars in San Antonio. My dad used to maintain them. He was close friends with the whole group. That 32 Ford was a true delight
I picked up my 19 year old son from his job last month and I was playing this in the car, my son said what is that music Dad , I said ZZ top that's what I listened to when I was your age, he has been playing this song on a loop in his room ever since.
Rip Dusty!! My heart is broken! You are a legend to the rock industry! Always loved listening to ZZ Top! This music will never die, but continue to live on forever!!!!
My grandpa just passed today, and ZZ was one of his favorite bands. I'll always think of him when I hear these guys. I bet he's rock' n all the way to the afterlife.
This is the most chill band to ever exist. They are rock and roll. Very cool guys in person and they can play good as studio recording at anytime in anyplace they are bad and they're nation wide
Very true, l think sometimes that is forgotten..part of the reason that the drums can seem to much..a hell of a lot is going on in a simple riff..which much mean that they were brillant guitar players.
when i was young plastered in front of the TV in the mid 80s, I remember seeing this and thought it was the coolest thing i've ever seen. 40 yeards later, ZZ Top was, is, and will always be the coolest band of all time. RIP Dusty
Love the old-style "cool" stuff from the 80s. I blast this stuff out of my pickup with the windows rolled down, driving thru the city and the country. It's cool everywhere you go
@@damone70 Maybe this song is, but ZZ Top isn't only Sharp Dressed Man, Legs and Gimme All Your Lovin', there's so much more to enjoy from this band and it would be a shame to dismiss it as "dad rock"
We need you down here in Florida, where people are blasting their crap rap every day, shaking my windows. I'd love to hear people with good taste in music for a change!!!
R.I.P. Dusty they just played 12 ZZ TOP songs in a row here on 95KGGO in Des Moines, Iowa this evening in his honor … this song has always been my favorite though… When this comes on at 5pm after work is over it makes you wanna jump out the window and RUN home!
Born and rasied in Dallas Texas and seen Billy when i was a puppy at Fair park stadium and he is one the reasons im a master on guitar. Fake it Billy says just play your all. Mans still alive!! Praise the Lord for men like ole Billy
Got on RUclips to look up info for my computer, been binge watching ZZtop ever since. Guys kicked it for over 50 yrs, never be another band like you. RIP Dusty.
I listen to this song and close my eyes and am instantly transported back to the glorious 80s. ZZ Top will live forever as an icon of classic American Rock/Blues
There will never be another decade like the 80's. And never another band like ZZ Top, that rule the radio waves again, like they did back then. It was one hell of a fun decade too live through.😎
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.
ZZ Top, Pantera, and Selena never get old. I have never been to Texas before. However, I will say this. Texas, I much prefer to have as my friend and not as my enemy.
Saw them in SoCal with the Fab Tbirds. Saw Joan Jett that same year. Pat Benetar made a stop too along that same timeline. What a great era for rock music.
My dad used to play this song when I was 8 years old... he was in his 40s. I'm 25 now and my dad has passed but I remember him through these songs. He definitely put me on to ZZ top and I love their music
This song came out when I was 4 years old watched it on MTV all the time. My Dad just passed this year but remembering all these videos having a brew thinking about the simple times. 👍
Man, that whole episode where Dusty is related to Hank Hill was just awesome. Also, big ups to my former barber, former military vet who reminded me of ZZ top.
One of the coolest bands that has ever existed! Mixing electronic grooves and blues guitar is so beyond incredible! Growing up on Texas these guys were always on in my house. Ha!
Gotta love it. Mercy those were the days. The 80's music was still holding strong from the 60's and 70's. Though with some slight difference in the sound. But it was still 'Rock And Roll To Me.'
Love the ZZ Top Girls!!! I LOVE they come in and "Save the Day" for whom ever is being down trodden or picked on !!!! Not Superman..but "Super Girls" !!!
@@marcouziel5742 Music in the late 70's was quite synthetic. But they back off and in the early to mid 80s was mostly raw talent. 90s+... it diminished over the next 10yrs into studio editing.
Классные чуваки Талантливые,просто!!! Лет так эдак 25 назад познакомилась с ихним творчеством,с тех пор они мои любимчики! Браво!!!Настоящая Музыка вне времени!👍👍👍
Riff, voices, pitch, placement, perfection at all levels on this song. Legends.
Yes indeed..The 80's were great
TOTALLY.
that's right

Dusty was like a son to Cotton Hill
He was my godfather. He would've told you to quit your crying.
@@slowrollinglow5498 how often did you meet him?
Amen brother
That guitar riff still kills even 40 years later. So raw like a buzzsaw. Gibbons is such an amazing blues guitar player
40 years ....fu..k already , thanks to remind mi that bro . 👍
One of the best!!!!!
ZZ Top mastered the melding of Blues and Rock in a unique style. They also showed a good sense of humor in their lyrics.
THIS WILL NEVER GET OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....TIMELESS RIFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUCH LUV MCCLANE 8812
im convinced the drums and vocals are just there so they can claim the song wasnt only for the guitarist to riff for 4 minutes.
Doesnt matter what genre is your favorite. This shit just jams.
Absolutely
🤘🎸🎼🎶🎵🎶!!!!
YES MAN!
🔥🔥
What I love about ZZ Top was that they never took themselves too seriously. Sly, humorous lyrics and a sense of fun with their performances.
I like that they never followed the mainstream and just did their own thing. It was the mainstream that ran into them and never the other way around.
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.
LOVE THAT CAR!!
Yeah, especially with the bass with there absurd amount of strings
@@CorvetteStingray1969Me Too! 😮
One of the best songs I ever heard. What a solo. What a rhythm. What a voice. Everything in the right place at the right time. Absolute perfection
My father loved this band.
Come on.. how can one NOT like ZZ top.
Not to mention the babes who 'forgot' to wear a bra😎
with a few words: zz top IS TOP!🙂
@@rogertobison5508 Im a dude with tits an even I forgot to wear mine 😁
I can,t drive on high way without listening ZZ
It still blows me away that just 3 guys could deliver so much solid music for so many years.

I remember seeing them around the Clear Lake (you know where I'm talking about) real often and getting a chance to talk with them on occasion.

No sir, I do not know where you are talking about
His ability? He was a pretty simple drummer.
@@rfcbass6810 Yeah, baffling comment. Pretty stock-standard drummer!
It’s a proven fact that this song can give anyone confidence!
Thank you, I send my so this song all the time, he had low self esteem but he got a great job, got contacts m, working out. And looks sharp everyday
Absolutely!!!
@@angelaleonard2434 Smashed this out at a karaoke 1st time last weekend. Killer track! Lady did indeed, go crazy...
Anything by ZZ.
fact!
Judging by their music videos, ZZ Top are the greatest wingmen around.
+DeltaF1 You're so right on. I grew up mostly on R & B and Funk but I loved these Guys. Sharp Dressed Man as become the unofficial GQ Anthem.

ZZ Top carved out their own niche. Tracks like this are industrial strength boogie. Riffs that simple and that memorable are incredibly difficult to do, but they made a career out of them. This is stuff that will last.
I was into their early stuff to like LaGrange and Asleep in the Desert. Great stuff.
Sick monke
Just heard of the passing of Dusty Hill, he has spent the last 50 years rocking. May Heaven love ZZ Top as much as I do. Hope to see and hear them back together after God calls everyone home.
That
Yep
Hello I see happiness ❤all around you, can I please share from it?
What these guys did with just a 3 piece band was amazing. Some of the guitar and drum work is as good as anything ever done in rock and roll.
I'm 21 years old again...and it's like 40 years never passed. My gosh! What a timeless hit. Makes me feel young again. The good stuff never gets old.
Hello Jeannie I see happiness all around you, can I please share from it?
Jeannie Mainzer, you are absolutely right. ZZ Top music never gets old.
I'm going to be 59 next month....But when I listen to this, I'm in my 20s.......LOL
I totally agree, a timeless and brilliant song!

Exactly, unlike stupid rappers.

Fun fact. ZZ top still has a warehouse full of cars in San Antonio. My dad used to maintain them. He was close friends with the whole group. That 32 Ford was a true delight
The Eliminator in the video is a ‘33, there were at least two of them built.
Is your Dad single? 💋
But it's a 33 in the showcase and a clone 34 he drives around.
No 32... You should know that better than anyone else given your story....

Saw ZZ Top on the Eliminator tour years ago. Joan Jett was the opening act. What a great night.
Saw the same act at red rocks Colo
I like ZZ Top’s videos,
but I never had a strong desire to see them in concert.
But I would go to see Joan Jett, anytime, anywhere.
I saw them early 90s and I believe the Fabulous Thunderbirds opened for them....💞
I saw this tour in New Haven,CT. Sammy Hagar opened. Great night of rock!

Wild, still on top after 40 years, unbelievable, a real capture of that era's vibe.
Style is king. (When you're ZZ Top).
As a teen growing up in the 80's this song was badass.
It was seriously badass. 7 th grade for me.
Bub..it still is!!
Everything that rappers talk about today, summed up into one badass 80’s rock song. This song definitely aged well!
Excellent point. Go Eagle's!!
Weather going to be at Winstar this year and I would love to go back and see him again this is Lila Harmon
C.C May not an eagles fan but cowboys suck! 🤠
One of the best songs ever produced.
ZZ Top legends
Gotta love it. Mercy those were the days. The 80's music was still holding strong from the 60's and 70's. Though with some slight difference in the sound. But it was still 'Rock And Roll To Me.'
jimmy baker timeless
A Bon Jovi quote on a ZZ Top video?!
Im gonna let it slide this time. :P
jimmy baker love the Billy Joel reference here.
jimmy baker definitely, I was a teenager back then, what a great education!
I saw what you did there (Billy Joel Reference) haha
Timeless. Cant be played loud enough
Каждое утро я завожу машину с этой музыкой❤

Yes it can!! WTF is WRONG with you ?
@@castleanthrax1833well thanks for that news flash
Love the ZZ Top Girls!!!
I LOVE they come in and "Save the Day" for whom ever is being down trodden or picked on !!!!
Not Superman..but "Super Girls" !!!
you can’t stop The Eliminator Girls
This song is so very true. It automatically pops in my head whenever I see a sharp dressed man, especially when you don't expect it!
I have always been amazed at how a three piece band can put out such a strong excellent sound
Check out Rush if you have never heard them before. They are a three member band from Canada. Sadly, one of the members recently passed away though.
how many members is a band ideally supposed to have?
@@andyvargas2313 No idea, but it's best if they don't suddenly lose one! :)
@@ontariohappenings Indeed - 2012 and A Farewell to Kings are hard to beat (understatement).
u said t right A legend in our time!!!!
This song never gets old. Timeless classic!
agree it a classic that car
RIP Dusty. Your sound will live on forever.
Classe intemporelle !!
❤
ZZ Top hold the record for longest running band with an unchanged line up I mean that says it all, one word.... respect!!!
@Sam Rightin Which guy lol?
@Sam Rightin Yeah ok why not
@Sam Rightin wtf?
I believe Golden Earring still has same line up since early 70's
@@AM101GT ZZ Top have been around since the 60s with the original 3 believe it or not
Im 17 years old and i dont listen to modern music because is trash this is real music
ZZ top is iconic and always will be.
The hot rods and girls dancing about kinda helps too 😎
@wydopnthrtl yes more of my style and not just zztop There are more like KISS, Metallica,AC/DC, Scorpions, Billy Joel and much more
@@marcouziel5742 Music in the late 70's was quite synthetic. But they back off and in the early to mid 80s was mostly raw talent.
90s+... it diminished over the next 10yrs into studio editing.
You have good taste in music
@@wydopnthrtlyou are 100% spot on after the mid to late 80s it turned to shit
This song takes me back to 1983, I love this song!!! Thanks for posting this video
+Jennifer Felan I saw them in Portland it was an awesome concert!
+Dyanna Harrington I also got to see them too in San Antonio, Texas in 1991 and it was a great show. I love ZZ Top.
+Jennifer Felan yeah me to
+Jennifer Felan This song is from the best ZZ Top album: Eliminator (1982). These 3 guys rules forever!
+Igor Maxwel eliminator (1983)...not 1982
King of King Queen 👌 👑 👸
I'M 67 years young, AND STILL ROCKING!

I am 72 still love them- went years ago to see in concert- will stay with me forever.
Just turned 40 myself and feel 18 jamming Zz top
63 here in 2020. My opinion is that it's un-American to dislike ZZ Top.
One of my absolute favorite all time songs. ZZ Top - so many great memories. Dusty Hill, RIP and thank you.
ZZ Top, the three fairy Godfathers we all wish we had.
Ya
You sure got that right.
Rock on 😎

This video captures the 80s atmosphere very well. ZZ Top still rockin for over 45 years. RIP Dusty thanks for the memories.
52 years since they cut ZZ Tops First Album in 1971. The band has been together since 1969. So many great songs.
RIP Dusty Hill. One of my favorite songs of all time! That riff is so badass!
RIP Dusty Hill. A unique band with the same line.up in more than fifty years has now lost their bassplayer.
Devilishly catchy song. Love it!
Good Times !!!
