Wow, what a honor this must of been for you Andy to interview the Reverend Billy F. Gibbons in person. Grew up on ZZtop and saw them twice in a 3 month period in 1980, they were that great. Congrats and Billy is looking good!
I know, it’s like Billy just knew that people gonna want more of this ! Also, check out the album sleeve front. Nothing wild, like most albums of the day. Just a photograph of Pearly Gates.
This is one the best interviews I have ever watched it was great Mr. Gibbens Is one intelligent dude i could listen to talk or play all day.....Roland J Gutierrez from Magdalena New Mexico usa.
Two classics in the music industry. Well done on the interview. Billy was around and in his prime when MTV started. "Sharp Dressed Man", " Gimme all your Loving" "Tube Snake Boogie", "Pearl Necklace" great Blues!
No question that this 69 year old legend oozes more genuine cool from his toes than nearly every other "celebrity" out there, musician or otherwose - especially those born in the last 30 or so years. I can't even dream about being as cool as Billy G. if I ever reach his age. And sure as hell I won't be as sharply dressed. Rock on forever brotha....
Not gonna lie... I'm jealous :-) Billy Gibbons is one of the coolest guitarists ever and just so cool as a person too. Really enjoyed the interview, thank you for posting this!
Good Afternoon Thomann's Guitars & basses, thanks for this documentary/vidéo.....good surprise.....Hello Billy you are my old friend.........i 'm also fan many many groups music.....BLUES rythm and blues and rock and jazz and country
Ohh Andy wasn't that nervous. That's his british humour and I love him for that. Lukas, our camera guy nearly laughed out loud when Andy told burger king with that dumb face. :-D //cheers, Kris
Legen wait for it DARY! Great interview. And you had the opportunity to make a backstage delivery to a ZZ TOP gig - that`s something to tell your grandchildren one day- BTW Billy has such a pleasant voice - he could recite a telephone book and I would listen to it for hours.
We have been advised that the Magnatone stereo vibrato has been brought back for the service of mankind. Don't know about you all, but I am going to have to rustle up some more side work.
Is Bill Lee miss speaking of the Hammond B3 organ player Mike Flanagan or does he mean Mike Finnegan because there have been some great B3 organ players in the day my top three are Gregg Allman Bobby Whitlock Booker TAnd number four would be mike Finnegan who has played on a lot of records Dave Mason Les Dudek and on and on
He's just so relaxed, articulate and clearly intelligent. A new ZZ Top album wouldn't go astray, either....
Legend get thrown around a lot, but the Rev is a true legend 🤟🏻
A living Legend of a man.
I grew up and started playing guitar whit ZZ Top tunes.
Wow, what a honor this must of been for you Andy to interview the Reverend Billy F. Gibbons in person. Grew up on ZZtop and saw them twice in a 3 month period in 1980, they were that great. Congrats and Billy is looking good!
Intelligent man
What knowledge and endurance he and his band has!
Billy Gibbons really is a musicologist and Southern Gentleman. Can’t wait to see ZZ Top on their 50th anniversary tour! Thanks for sharing! 🤙🏻😎🎸🎼
It is physically impossible for anyone to be cooler than Reverend Willie G.
What a likeable gentleman he is.
I have seen zztop live in Denver way back in the 80s it was awesome I couldn't believe the sound of they amps
Hell yeah been excited for this one 🤘 Billy is absolutely the epitome of cool
ZZ Top is Übercool,
ZZ Top's first album is "ZZ Top's first album"
I know, it’s like Billy just knew that people gonna want more of this ! Also, check out the album sleeve front. Nothing wild, like most albums of the day. Just a photograph of Pearly Gates.
That's got to be surreal. That's the Tres Hombres guy. The soundtrack of my youth. You lucky dog. I want Billy Gibbons to be my friend.
This is one the best interviews I have ever watched it was great Mr. Gibbens Is one intelligent dude i could listen to talk or play all day.....Roland J Gutierrez from Magdalena New Mexico usa.
Saw them for the first time at Sandia Pueblo a few years ago, along with Jeff Beck.
Two classics in the music industry. Well done on the interview. Billy was around and in his prime when MTV started. "Sharp Dressed Man", " Gimme all your Loving" "Tube Snake Boogie", "Pearl Necklace" great Blues!
Wow... Such a Legend... Wow!!!!
😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵
It was such a pleasure. I learned so much from my guitar hero.
//Andy
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses To "play in the pocket", you have to have a lot of pockets for exemple!
That’s why Billy is so good at it!
//Andy
Man! BFG... I could listen to this dude all day!! At once, he relaxes me and inspires me :)
No question that this 69 year old legend oozes more genuine cool from his toes than nearly every other "celebrity" out there, musician or otherwose - especially those born in the last 30 or so years.

At 5:30 min Tomman said Burger King after ZZ mentioned BB king Albert king , lol he so nervous lol
Ohh Andy wasn't that nervous. That's his british humour and I love him for that. Lukas, our camera guy nearly laughed out loud when Andy told burger king with that dumb face. :-D
//cheers, Kris
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses Burger King played with BBQue, two great forgotten bluesmen 😉
I found very funny
I thought it was terribly disrespectful to vintage blues players. Not funny at all.
I love Billy gibbons and Dusty Hills beards!!
What do you say to a man like this... I'd just cry and wouldn't manage to get words out
his majesty I bet your shaking lol
My idol true legend would just be such an honor to meet
Bavaria and the Bayou City! My hometown Hero still bad and beyond nationwide!
great hosts
Reverend Wille G ? A man that seems very cool calm and happy to sit talk, play and show that he is unfazed even after 50 years of Cruising in the Top.
nice!
Billy one of the last really cool musicians, time flies by but the good old days never come back.
Rev Willy G ...the feel of Keith Richards, B.B.’s sting, Eric Johnson’s technical knowledge!
LOVE The Reverened Willy G.
Did Andy say "burger king" ?
Hahaha yes.. epic
lol, I couldn't believe he said that, Gibbons didn't look amused
Yes... what an asshole......
@@knight2255 He didn't hear lol
Got to love some Billy Gibbons!
Keep those sidewalks moving Rev! ;) Great stuff Andy.
Wow... just wow!
Best man alive!
Oh you lucky so and so. Fantastic interview with a genuine gent. 👍🎸
Billy you are fantastic LEGEND for me......... you are good man......sincerely........i'm mélomane septuagénaire
Andy - that was fantastic!
Thanks Nick!
//Andy
Man, I was hoping to hear the Magnatone Super Fifteen demo.
@Richard Driskill I just found out ZZ Top is coming to Kalamazoo Wing's Stadium. Hope I can afford the tickets.
@Richard Driskill Hopefully they will have some good prices for Kalamazoo. Part of the pricing goes with the venue and demographics of the area.
What a dude!
love him to bits, but......... Live he still uses his JMP-1 Marshall rig. ( you even got it on video when you dropped off his pedals)
There is also a Magnatone Super 59 head used in conjuncture with the JMP-1 in that rig.
the man! he´s the man!
Tio Billy with the travel bottle of Tajin in his jacket like a real tejano!
EPIC !!
Legend !
He is awesome to listen to. Great video
Class act
Man. The best chilli is a guy called hammy heywood from scarborough uk .
Legend Andy! Billy Gibbons aint too shabby either! Lol. ;)
God what a nice guy
It would be cool to see a Synergy Magnatone module.
Wow Andy! I wish l was a fly on the wall!
nice voice
Legen wait for it DARY! Great interview. And you had the opportunity to make a backstage delivery to a ZZ TOP gig - that`s something to tell your grandchildren one day- BTW Billy has such a pleasant voice - he could recite a telephone book and I would listen to it for hours.
Man, that voice has its own post code.
//Andy
12:41 Billy talks about his performance on Back to the Future.

We have been advised that the Magnatone stereo vibrato has been brought back for the service of mankind. Don't know about you all, but I am going to have to rustle up some more side work.
The coolest guitar player ever is Billy Gibbons.
I bet they ain’t cheap sunglasses!
Good stuff! :)
ah ah ah ah.. Billy is God!
Buenos dias
Is that his real hair?
the reverand is quite the salesman
motoputz Hell I’d buy whatever he’s selling
Cool! :)
7:41
I wonder what "Motykie Herschel" means
Billy's on a mission from God
Is Bill Lee miss speaking of the Hammond B3 organ player Mike Flanagan or does he mean Mike Finnegan because there have been some great B3 organ players in the day my top three are Gregg Allman Bobby Whitlock Booker TAnd number four would be mike Finnegan who has played on a lot of records Dave Mason Les Dudek and on and on
The "Burger-King" Jokes doesn't work that well....haha 5:30
Sweet video mate
I had a pretty good time and Billy and I are still in contact.
//Andy
will ZZ Top switch to the evertune bridge in the studio ???
awesome interview Andy :)
Bit late for questions.... 😉
From knowing how billy regards new technology, I would say he is open to anything!
//Andy
I’ll ask him myself when I see him next ✌🏽😂
With a little more time & practice this Gibbons dude could really go far! ;) Lol.
What-❤️❤️the only musician next to jeff lynne i Wanna meet
Only thing missing is a Bob Ross in place of that (t)
This fuckin’ guy...
I'll buy whatever this guy's selling. Records? Hot sauce? A marine band harmonica? Sure.
German "hot sauce" = something like ketchup with a little pinch of black pepper added.
He didn't feel like playing.....,
😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳🤘🤘🤘
Did he just say Burger King after Albert, Freddie, and BB King!?
Yes
