If you remember , after verse two Dusty sings out; ''take me with you Jesus'', from 'Jesus just left Chicago', I add; ''but not tonight'' , a line a stole from the song ''Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox'' by the late Joe Diffie, who also left us too soon.
My first concert was Eliminator at 14. Mom had good taste in music and took me. Surrounded and protected by all these bikers smoking copious amounts of weed. Mom beat herself up about it, because we got a great contact high. Greatest thing I ever saw.
Just seen Billy Gibbons in a bar, fully star struck. I've never caught buck fever before but that must be what it's like. I said thank you to him, he gave me the finger gun and I absolutely knew what it felt like to be in the presence of greatness. I'll never forget it.
Playing the notes of Jesus Came to Chicago is easy. Playing them right is NOT so easy. This has to be one of the best examples of Billy Gibbons ' genius. This guy has so much feel and rythm. Dusty and Frank lay down a pocket and Billy weaves around in it. This is how it's done folks.👍
Zzz top this is Kevin hamory god loves you and your music. And I do just as much. I will meet you soon. Keep rocking on. You will be even more blessed especially because of that song Jesus just left Chicago but all your music is decent. Have a wonderful day peace love and joy to your and your fans and the great state of Texas have a very merry christmas
I am so blessed to have met Dusty Hill and spend about 20 minutes chatting with him Class Act I can't say anymore got enough beautiful words to describe that man epitome of a Class Act
I've seen 'em a bunch, too, at venues big and small, from the early days right up to just before Trump’s plague. But one of my favorite shows was them headlining at the Cotton Bowl around '89 or '90, with Santana and the Steve Miller Band among others. THAT'S Texas! Rock in Pride, Dust!
I had the pleasure of working with ZZ as a production runner...met the whole band on more than one occasion, the best shows werer when Lynyrd Skyner opened...........
Miss Dusty..GOD BLESS EVERY Member of the Mighty Machine nown as ZZ TOP..GOD BLESS EVERYONE.Billy Gobbons still out there with Mr.Frank Beard.Man,the new man on bass has to have nerves of steel to go out and get in the bottom..Keep On Rock,N.Roll'N those old Blues down the road...
+scott harrison : Yes, I know Hendrix said that, but I think he would be disillusioned, were he still alive. Billy is known mainly not for his licks, but for his tone (managed by his guitar tech offstage), and the ZZ Top "schtick" - the beards, guitars, videos on early MTV, etc. There are many, many better guitarists out there than Billy. That being said, I'm a fan of ZZ Top, and caught them at the first Crossroads Festival in Dallas in 2004.
Was here with my now deceased daughter... Momma has been rockin to Tres Hombres for 40+ years Now y'all must be Rockin' out in Paradise.. Rest in n Peace Dusty & (of course, my Auriel) Priceless memories🤘🎸😇 See y'all at the 'Final Reunion Tour'.. date is TBA😉
There will never be another band like ZZ Top. They were the one and only band of their kind. Happy Trails, Dusty. Texas and the world won't be the same without you. RIP.
Saw ZZ in 1970/71 at a small venue in Memphis. So small I could lean my elbows on the stage. Billy said "We gonna boogie all night long" and they did. He was clean shaven and was wearing cowboy boots, blue jeans, cowboy shirt and hat, short hair and wire rimmed glass. I'll never forget it.
Love they way they just CASUALLY WALK INTO the Song... they have done it so many times.. they could do it in their Sleep... Just sooo smooth... like glass.
I sang in various hard rock bands through the 80's to mid 90's and I swear to the gods...playing/singing ZZ Top covers--without fail--would get the girls dancing and the most tepid crowds rockin'.
gasing up @ the circle K, in Phoenix walking back from inside to the car. Some punk in his cube car playing some bump and thump loud next pump over, jump in the car KSLX on the radio playing the Top right when it rolls from waiting on the bus to Jesus. CUHRANK IT poor punk didn't know what hit him.. Probably pissed old geezer like me had a louder stereo..
Just saw the "little Ol' band from Texas" In Concho Oklahoma, daaaaaaaaaaaamn is all I got to say. Saw 'em with the best of the best of friends In San Bernadino in 1972 they rocked the house down then.........................and they still did in 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the slightly slower version, their choreographed guitar thrusting, and after being one of my first albums, 1977, I have grown to love & appreciate them more and more..
I'm going on 60 in Oct. 2013 and I went to a ZZ concert in around 1971 or 1972 and a friend of mine somehow talked to the guys and they invited us back to their Hotel in Las Vegas,NV. and we talked and drank and gambled with them in the casino. Man , that will be the high light of my life
Take it to the top Dust. Elwoods got the bottom. Take me wit you Jesus. Back to Chicago. Wheeew!!!!! Water into fine fine shine!!!! Pretty sure I said before..... nice stacks boys. G.H.B. Till death.
Nobody can cover this song, with the sound and showmanship as ZZ Top, in most cases the originals are always the best, and in this case it rings true, thanks for the iconic songs and years of rock ZZ. RIP Dusty
Had to stop by and get a dose of Texas vibe and Dusty real quick, so glad to have RUclips so we can always visit our best friends (R.I.P. Dusty, you keep em in rhythm up there, ok?)
You might not see him in person but he'll see you Just the same.
Ain't that the Truth!
I am playing my fender strat RIGHT now and I was just about to type this same thing....
Rest in Peace Dusty Hill.
People don't understand today what a 3 piece band has to do. Cream, Rush, ZZ Top.
That transition from Waitin' on the Bus to Jesus Just Left Chicago is epic and legendary.
Gets you wondering how this 3 ittle band from Texas! KICKED
Well said! 🤘🏻
RIP Dusty…. 🙏🏻
I've played this and YES, That segment hard!
The Transition is 'Spiritual'.
RIP Dusty, seemed like such a cool guy
RIP DUSTY. Man I guess he finally caught that bus.
Right on man
Damn.i felt that.
If you remember , after verse two
Dusty sings out; ''take me with you Jesus'',
from 'Jesus just left Chicago',
I add; ''but not tonight'' , a line a stole
from the song ''Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox''
by the late Joe Diffie, who also left us too soon.
That's not a laughing matter but it is funny
Sure nuff did. Well said. RIP Dusty
Billy's tone on that opening riff was awesome. God bless Dusty, ZZ Top won't be the same without you 🙏
Yes, what a hell of a sound
Which pedal?
@@BreadOmelette no pedals that I could see! Straight into the amp and crank the hell out of it!
I saw the recently with Elwood Francis, hes pretty good. It was good fine show.
But Dusty was Dusty. RIP Dusty.
@@stevengrinold3203 yep.
The harmony between these three is phenomenal
They've been playing together since 1967 or 68.........
Almost as good as Rush lol
My first concert was Eliminator at 14. Mom had good taste in music and took me. Surrounded and protected by all these bikers smoking copious amounts of weed. Mom beat herself up about it, because we got a great contact high. Greatest thing I ever saw.
Hard to believe that's only 3 guys. That little ole band from Texas
+61sasquatch 5.56 They are badass!
+61sasquatch 5.56 "The Boys"
+61sasquatch 5.56 "And all points in between" (5.56x 63) .
Quaility- not Quantity
LEGENDS
Just seen Billy Gibbons in a bar, fully star struck. I've never caught buck fever before but that must be what it's like. I said thank you to him, he gave me the finger gun and I absolutely knew what it felt like to be in the presence of greatness. I'll never forget it.
RIP Dusty Hill! Probably the best trio ever
Cream , Jimi Experience should be considered - but all top tier.
Rush, primus all fantastic 3 man bands named here
Absolute baddest in the business.
Just heard that Dusty passed away. Jesus, that's just horrible news. RIP, amigo.
They're not just cool, they're ICE....!
Real men right there. Playing real music............
Shared this glorious medley in memory of Dusty Hill, R.I.P sir
A guitar tone straight from God Himself!!
Texas Rock and Soul!
Playing the notes of Jesus Came to Chicago is easy. Playing them right is NOT so easy. This has to be one of the best examples of Billy Gibbons ' genius. This guy has so much feel and rythm. Dusty and Frank lay down a pocket and Billy weaves around in it. This is how it's done folks.👍
Lot of people don't give Frank credit, he was an awesome drummer. He could keep up with Dusty and Billy and drive it, hard to do.
Yes sir
Zzz top this is Kevin hamory god loves you and your music. And I do just as much. I will meet you soon. Keep rocking on. You will be even more blessed especially because of that song Jesus just left Chicago but all your music is decent. Have a wonderful day peace love and joy to your and your fans and the great state of Texas have a very merry christmas
For Dusty. God bless you, brother.
There’s nothing better than a great rock band who knows how to mix the perfect amount of blues in their music
Billy is THE definition of COOL.
His tone is a surgical knife
That bus done got me mad!!! I'll be ridin til my Cadillac!!!
RIP Dusty Hill. Thank you for the music! :-(
I am so blessed to have met Dusty Hill and spend about 20 minutes chatting with him Class Act I can't say anymore got enough beautiful words to describe that man epitome of a Class Act
So long Dusty Hill, you’re with Jesus now.😢 🎶
My wife and I have seen them 6 times in 20 years, love that little band from Texas.
I've seen 'em a bunch, too, at venues big and small, from the early days right up to just before Trump’s plague. But one of my favorite shows was them headlining at the Cotton Bowl around '89 or '90, with Santana and the Steve Miller Band among others.
THAT'S Texas!
Rock in Pride, Dust!
FUCK YEAH MAN!!!!! The transition to Jesus just left Chicago!!! PURE MAGIC!!!!!!!
Rest in peace Dusty Hill. ❤️
Every time I hear these guy’s drop down into Jesus just left Chicago gives me goose bumps! They killed it!!
I had the pleasure of working with ZZ as a production runner...met the whole band on more than one occasion, the best shows werer when Lynyrd Skyner opened...........
That tone is ridiculous!!!!!!
Awesome
Billy gibbons is absolutely the best guitarist ive ever heard, he just oozes tone and rhythm!
0 dislikes. Thats the only acceptable number here.
That" little ole band" from Texas. The great ZZ Top! And what a tremendous loss, of the blues bass legend Dusty Hill. RIP
This makes waitin for the bus a little easier.
nothing cooler than zz
Miss Dusty..GOD BLESS EVERY Member of the Mighty Machine nown as ZZ TOP..GOD BLESS EVERYONE.Billy Gobbons still out there with Mr.Frank Beard.Man,the new man on bass has to have nerves of steel to go out and get in the bottom..Keep On Rock,N.Roll'N those old Blues down the road...
Eric Clapton said Billy G is an encyclopedia of blues guitar licks
John Hebert Hendrix said that Billy is one of the best.
+scott harrison : Yes, I know Hendrix said that, but I think he would be disillusioned, were he still alive. Billy is known mainly not for his licks, but for his tone (managed by his guitar tech offstage), and the ZZ Top "schtick" - the beards, guitars, videos on early MTV, etc. There are many, many better guitarists out there than Billy. That being said, I'm a fan of ZZ Top, and caught them at the first Crossroads Festival in Dallas in 2004.
Even my computer turns this one up!
Davids garand THATS funny
hahaha
Good gravey!
That's some blistering hot shit gone super nova right there!
Rest in Peace Dusty. You were one of the best. 7-28-2021
Was here with my now deceased daughter... Momma has been rockin to Tres Hombres for 40+ years Now y'all must be Rockin' out in Paradise.. Rest in n Peace Dusty & (of course, my Auriel) Priceless memories🤘🎸😇 See y'all at the 'Final Reunion Tour'.. date is TBA😉
Legends.... RIP, Dust. And they sang it for Jesus. Don't kid yourself. They meant it.
RIP Dusty...Miss you
Who doesn't love ZZ?
There will never be another band like ZZ Top. They were the one and only band of their kind. Happy Trails, Dusty. Texas and the world won't be the same without you. RIP.
incredible that many people came just to see 3 guys. Those guys are badass.
It's been said that Billy Gibbons never wastes a note.
And he doesn't. One of the best. God, I love this band...seen em' 3 times, never disappoint!
Saw ZZ in 1970/71 at a small venue in Memphis. So small I could lean my elbows on the stage. Billy said "We gonna boogie all night long" and they did. He was clean shaven and was wearing cowboy boots, blue jeans, cowboy shirt and hat, short hair and wire rimmed glass. I'll never forget it.
Yeah man, I saw them in CT. in I think '75 and Billy had a regular, close shaven beard. The sound of course, was HUGE
Honestly, Billy's solo on this kicks Jimmy Page's solo on Since I've Been Loving You in its bum.
RIP DUSTY YOU WILL BE MISSED
BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN
Billy seems to sound even better as he gets older :)
The real kings of cool 😎 😎 😎
Doesn't get any better than this.
Enjoying this in Covid19 lockdown
Thanks Jesus 😊
Even the brothas love ZZ.
Dusty Hill and Frank Beard layed down the groove that let Billy Gibbons preach! RIP sir!
I have written this before, for these guys, but this some Texas Bad-Assium, y'all!
Love they way they just CASUALLY WALK INTO the Song... they have done it so many times.. they could do it in their Sleep...
Just sooo smooth... like glass.
Yeah it’s so cool , no big wanky build up , just walk out and smash it out of the park
They got that swagger that won't ever be replicated
like butter
Billy and Dusty just oozed awesomeness every time they went onstage
Rest in Peace, Dusty!
I sang in various hard rock bands through the 80's to mid 90's and I swear to the gods...playing/singing ZZ Top covers--without fail--would get the girls dancing and the most tepid crowds rockin'.
First time seeing this. Hearing Dusty Hill sing "Oh, take me with you, Jesus!" just gave me chills. Keeping on rockin in heaven, brother. 🎸⚡🙏🏼
The gospel according to the Reverend Billy Gibbons
Yes!
amen
R.I.P. Dusty 😔. Thank you for all the great tunes
Rest in Peace Brother Dusty. You will be missed.
Best live version of this I have ever seen. Gotta love ZZ Top.
ZZ Top is like a fine plate of Bar B Que, bear down on the Meat and Ease off the Potato Salad.....
Good Stuff!!!! - 👍
that entrance! Definition of cool! Then that segue into Jesus done Left Chicago is the best!!!
Nothing is cooler than ZZ Top blues!
God gave it to him. God is a zz Top fan.
Saw them live in the '70's (Tejas Tour) - absolutely epic. Still one of the best concerts I've ever attended.
Billy the Blues Man. THESE ARE THE BLUES BROTHERS.
It doesn't get much better than ZZTop!
gasing up @ the circle K, in Phoenix walking back from inside to the car. Some punk in his cube car playing some bump and thump loud next pump over, jump in the car KSLX on the radio playing the Top right when it rolls from waiting on the bus to Jesus. CUHRANK IT poor punk didn't know what hit him.. Probably pissed old geezer like me had a louder stereo..
We have lost a awesome and one part of the trio thats called ZZ TOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who the hell are the 63 people who disliked this,this is real music
+Justin Greene some lost people with no taste for real american Texas blues
+Lenny Luzitano check out my song “Texas Party”on Reverberation..RUclips ..Facebook....Twitter>>>
+Justin Greene 83 now. Very worrying!
ass hats .
+Justin Greene If I'm a bet'n man, Jesus will most probably take care of any asshole who does't like this !
....RIP Dusty ...that was one hell of a ride .....5 Bizkits .....
Just saw the "little Ol' band from Texas" In Concho Oklahoma, daaaaaaaaaaaamn is all I got to say. Saw 'em with the best of the best of friends In San Bernadino in 1972 they rocked the house down then.........................and they still did in 2013!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the slightly slower version, their choreographed guitar thrusting, and after being one of my first albums, 1977, I have grown to love & appreciate them more and more..
That my young friends is what you call. Playing real music, no backing tracks. I love it.
I SAW THEM IN THE 70'S IN ASHEVILLE, NC....THEY WERE GREAT!
I'm going on 60 in Oct. 2013 and I went to a ZZ concert in around 1971 or 1972 and a friend of mine somehow talked to the guys and they invited us back to their Hotel in Las Vegas,NV. and we talked and drank and gambled with them in the casino. Man , that will be the high light of my life
Dusty RIP guess you're turning that muddy Mississippi River water into fine wine with Jesus!
Rest Easy Dusty! Thank you for your music and the memories
Take it to the top Dust. Elwoods got the bottom. Take me wit you Jesus. Back to Chicago. Wheeew!!!!! Water into fine fine shine!!!! Pretty sure I said before..... nice stacks boys. G.H.B. Till death.
ZZ Top holds the record for longest career as a trio, 52 years (1969 til Dusty's death in 2021.)
Dusty Hill is most likely playing bass in the Lords band , RIP Dusty you are definitely missed and will never be forgotten! 🤘✌️🎸Rock on Dusty 🤘
They had that superb timing and showmanship, that just made the music even better...
RIP Dusty, they don’t do shit like this anymore..thanks for your service brother..
Nobody can cover this song, with the sound and showmanship as ZZ Top, in most cases the originals are always the best, and in this case it rings true, thanks for the iconic songs and years of rock ZZ. RIP Dusty
Man what a legendary band, i know they miss Dusty, they are the tres hombres for ever.
Two great Confederate generals and a great drummer!
We are all going to miss him. Such huge talent snuffed out like a candle.
It was always nice seeing him around town on occasion.
Rest In Peace, Dusty.
Had to stop by and get a dose of Texas vibe and Dusty real quick, so glad to have RUclips so we can always visit our best friends (R.I.P. Dusty, you keep em in rhythm up there, ok?)
THE DUST, AS HIS WIFE CALLED HIM, WAS ALWAYS A BADASS!! R.I. P.! DUSTY!
