ZZ Top Live DVD Debut and Tour

04/21/2008
.
(Kayos) On June 24, Eagle Rock Entertainment will release the first-ever live concert on DVD and Blu-Ray from ZZ Top, Live From Texas. With a running time of more than two hours, the disc is filled with the kind of Southern Fried sizzle ZZ Top is world-famous for. Live From Texas features 17 barnburners of blues, barrelhouse boogie and deliciously fuzz-toned hard rock.

Singer/guitarist/frontman Billy F Gibbons, Bassist Dusty Hill and Drummer Frank Beard make up one of the most instantly recognizable bands in rock history. From their 1969 Houston inception to this 2008 DVD release, they are the only major band in history to never have had a personnel change in almost a 40-year history.

Bonus features on Live From Texas include Gibbons, Hill and Beard discussing the evolution of the band over a hot game of poker. Viewers will also go behind-the-scenes on show day in Dallas and on location on a band photo shoot. There is also one bonus track: a ZZ Top's reverent re-interpretation of Jimi Hendrix's "Foxy Lady." Plus, initial quantities of the DVD will come packaged in a slimline digipack with booklet of exclusive live photos.

1) Got Me Under Pressure
