An awesome rock album that blends blues with 80s dance music, creating timeless radio hits and fun.
Great stuff
Outstanding
What an album!
Such a fantastic album, always great
The perfect mix of kick-the-dirt punk and fun rock ballads
This album is high energy and has some of the great ZZ Top songs
la portada dice todo. las guitarras bien celosas ganaron mi puntuación buen album sin mas puntos mas altos: Gimme All Your Lovin' - Got Me Under Pressure - TV Dinners - Bad Girl
Cool album
Reminds me of watching MTV in my parents house hoping they don't walk into the room during the 'legs' video. I'm glad to hear the whole album
Yeah a classic, good solid 70s rock
Fun album with lots of radio hits and a few fun surprises. Not a huge fan of the electronic drum machines used on this album but it works for this one.
Only listened to one song and liked it
I prefer their 70s work, but this one is still great.
Bueee
Great rocking guitar album.
A couple of bangers, a few fillers: a solid album. 8/10
If these guys don’t get you going you’re lying to yourself
Great album, all gas no breaks.
Some classic rock staples lead this album. It's a solid, toe tapping good time. Top tracks: "Sharp Dressed Man," "Legs," "Gimme All Your Lovin'"
--Gimme All Your Lovin'...solid classic rock radio --Got Me Under Pressure...this rips --Sharp Dressed Man...you could argue this group plays the same song over and over again but, hot damn, the song cooks --I Need You Tonight...some downtempo blues. not something I wanted from these guys. it's also too long --I Got the Six...and we're back --Legs...a 70s boogie band that made a surprisingly easy transition into the 80s drum machine --Thug...oooh, funky --TV Dinners...interesting. I'm guessing they're not fans of TVDs --Dirty Dog...they take a few fun risks on this LP but they're at their best when they keep it simple. this kicks --If I Could Only Flag Her Down...basically a more syncopated "Sharp Dressed Man". works for me --Bad Girl...fitting closer
I didn’t know I was in the mood for some driving rock and roll. But I was and this definitely hit the spot! I added “Legs” to my playlist.
Legends
The released singles don't do this album justice for the musicianship
Really great Vibe
The hits were really good, the other tracks were also decent. Is this the greatest ever made? No, but sometimes a straightforward rock album is all you need. 3.5/5
Ljuvligt enformig slick skäggrock. Jävla gitarrton på billy! Solid 3,5a som avrundas uppåt efter att ha avnjutit legs med videon på. Snurrande pälsgitarrer skojar man inte bort.
Some all timers on this album for sure…great sounding rock
I actually lovee it but its not something that stays in my memory for long
Enjoy this one much more than Tres Hombres.
Muy buen álbum. Parece una banda de garage, pero tiene muy buen ritmo y sonidos, buenas letras. Nunca lo habia escuchado y me puso de buen humor escuchar una recomendación tan copada, es un álbum (y probablemente una banda) que volvería a escuchar.
Finally something I can jam to
When ZZ Top breaks up I hope an imposter band starts touring as them, to honour Dusty Hill and Frank Beards origins as members of the fake Zombies. Might be harder to do now we have the internet. Favourite song: Gimme All Your Lovin' Least: TV Dinners
Nesten overraskanes gøy å høre på? Der mange av de andre 80-tallsklassikeran blir litt langdryg, fløy tre kvarter med ZZ Top avgårde raskt som bare det, men også uten å være enerveranes. Det e nok ikke det æ kommer til å høre mest på i framtida heller, men det va en generelt positiv lytteopplevelse æ ikke e gretten over å ha gjennomført (i motsetning til med enkelte album på lista).
Yeah was cool
It's been a while since I've heard the whole album. Some good tunes.
Hate the guys but damn if it doesn’t hit
that is a must listen to every hard rock fan.
ZZ Top rocks Best songs: - Gimme All Your Lovin’ - Sharp Dressed Man - Legs
Classic album from a classic band! So many good songs!
I’m from Texas. ZZ Top is the official rock band of Texas. OK, that’s probably not true, but if you’re from Texas and you don’t like ZZ Top, you have to leave once you turn 18. That’s not true either, but if you don’t like ZZ Top there’s probably something wrong with you and you’re not fun to be around. Seriously, how can you not like ZZ Top?! What genre is ZZ Top? Funky Texas Blues Rock Boogie? How fun does that sound? Pretty fun. Two weird beards and one guy named Beard who didn’t have a beard?! Again, fun. Also, if you were a teenage boy in the 80s, those videos were pretty great. I like ZZ Top. I would like them even if I wasn’t from Texas. 4.6
not bad, not bad. easy listening old rock i'd say. nothing stood out to me too much, but i knew more songs than i thought. alright album all around
Solid album from the lil ol’ band from Texas
Classic album
I'd listen to this if I drove a really cool car really, really fast. Alas, I am a 48 year old substitute teacher who obeys traffic laws and drives a 12 year old Jetta with a temperamental check engine light and a broken A/C. Still, it gets a 4 because it's just so darn cool.
TV Dinners and the music video is damn good. love those guitar solos
catchy songs with fun guitar, great tone, good vocals and a generally great energy for most of the tracks, very good album for me zz top is never in mind as one of my favourite bands but I'm always happy to hear zz top
Quite good for what it is! I could be convinced there's better ZZ out there but I enjoyed it through-out
Monday, 1 June 2026 Guitars, bars, babes, and beards. Classic album. Sounds great. “It still kicks!”
Epochal 80’s hard-drivin’ guitar rock. Is it wrong to take one star off for the novelty beards? (No.)
Listens: 2.5 Standout Tracks: Gimme All Your Lovin', Sharp Dressed Man Credit given when credit due. I was admittedly not looking forward to this. This is my second ZZ Top album and the first one was so absolutely bland that I cannot remember a single thing about it, including the name (Tres Hombres). This album on the other hand I've heard a few tracks and even enjoyed the music a little. Its pretty balls-to-the-wall for the first five or six tracks before things start getting a little monotonous and weird (like TV Dinner, wtf). Overall, I don't think I would do full listens in the future, but a few tracks are going on the playlist. 3.5 rounded up.
When I was in high school, my school had a tradition where, every year during the drill team spring showcase, the dads of the drill team officers for that year would dress up in their daughters' uniforms - sparkly top, cowgirl hat, high-heeled boots, the whole bit - and perform a high-kick routine. Well, not actually their daughters' uniforms - larger uniforms sized specifically for this occasion. (Somebody had thought this through.) The five guys would line up and start dancing the routine, and the auditorium would roar with laughter and approval, and they'd all look really uncomfortable, as expected. But the really interesting thing was that they'd all look uncomfortable for different reasons. There'd be one or two of them who clearly didn't want to be there at all and had been harangued into this by their daughters or the drill team coach or whoever, and they'd just sort of half-ass the whole thing. And then a couple others who weren't any less awkward but were trying to be good sports about it, putting on a brave face and at least trying to get the choreography right. And then there'd inevitably be one of them who was actually really into it but had to act like he wasn't, lest he be thought gay or something. (This would be the same guy who shaved his legs ahead of the performance, not having gotten the memo that the others definitely weren't doing that.) So you'd have this motley assortment of middle-aged White Texan men in bad drag, dancing on stage in front of several hundred people (many of them the most virulent homophobes you will ever meet), with varying degrees of enthusiasm, and getting the loudest reaction *by far* that any of the performances would get all night. The song they always danced to was "Legs" by ZZ Top. Anyway, this is a fun album. Maybe someday I'll figure out what it's about.
"Eliminator" is the album in which ZZ Top hit it big with a more polished, synthesiser-driven sound rather than their prior loose Texas boogie sound. This shift had started with their prior album, "El Loco". Linden Hudson was responsible, in partnership with Billy Gibbons, for much of this transition but received little to no credit at the time. (In)Famously, the drums are all programmed on this album, as is the bass -it is all but a Billy Gibbons solo album, though Dusty Hill sings lead vocals on two of the tracks. At the time of release, "Eliminator" sounded fresh and modern and like nothing else in the Rock world. Oddly, despite the success of the album, and the prevailing nature of the hit singles that it spawned, those production choices haven't aged as well as their prior blues-rock-based albums. What about the songs? There isn't a poor track on the album - six of the eleven tracks are 5-star songs in my view. That said, I rarely play this album, finding myself reaching for one of their first six albums, or even their last studio album "La Futura" (a fantastic album), when I am in a ZZ Top mood. But when I do play "Eliminator", I enjoy it immensely. Four stars. Side one 1 "Gimme All Your Lovin'" (5/5) 2 "Got Me Under Pressure" (5/5) 3 "Sharp Dressed Man" (5/5) 4 "I Need You Tonight" (5/5) 5 "I Got the Six" (4/5) Side two 1 "Legs" (5/5) 2 "Thug" (3/5) 3 "TV Dinners" (4/5) 4 "Dirty Dog" (3/5) 5 "If I Could Only Flag Her Down" (4/5) 6 "Bad Girl" (5/5) Total - 48 Average - 4.36 336/1001 182/336 albums reviewed were new to me.
Good ol rock and roll yeeeeeep
You can tell they are loving it. This is a perfect version of something. Three guys in the band, one last named beard, it's the only guy without a giant beard.
Kraft Mac and Cheese is a pretty reliable product, you know what you're gonna get. A reliable person would make you some and not do anything crazy like mix in seafood chowder. ZZ Top is like that reliable. They have a formula. They give you rock music that has the tempo of the broken lines on the road passing by your car. Put on this album drive and zone out.
Reaaalllyyyyy good guitar solos and really good beats Keeps you involved Pretty good lyrics Not one song is a miss
I Need You Tonight and I Got the Six stood out other than the hits I've heard a bunch. 4.5/5
It was a good one, not the best but it's not bad either, i liked it
Quintessential dad rock on my first full day as a dad to our beautiful Faye ❤️ this album loses a bit of steam in the back half but overall, hell yeah.
Their best!
Dikke riffs, paar toffe nummers, monotone drums
I'm not the biggest on ZZ Top as a whole but they're really in peak performance with this album. Multiple of their biggest hits and tonally, consistently great throughout. Not going to be a favourite but a good time.
banger favs: sharp dressed man, Got me under pressure
Few songs id never heard before
So fun :) great album
Classic 80's music. Pitchfork: n/a Rolling Stone: n/a Best Songs Gimme All Your Lovin' Sharp Dressed Man Legs
Love me a bit of ZZ Top, feels like pure rock without ever trying too hard, they just seem like they were having a good time making music.
Great Wednesday hump day pick me up; giddy up let’s goooo
The back story makes the recording sessions seem a little dodgy, but Billy Gibbons' guitar tone set the 80s rock standard.
much energy mucho liko
REAL MAN SHIT!!!! YEAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I personally gave up on being a real man when I realized I was actually a girl, but you know what, I can still listen to some HARD SOUTHERN ROCK without any qualms. Especially when “Sharp-Dressed Man” is in the conversation. Well, I for one very much like the production here, and the attitude of it all. Very much this dancey, southern, glammy hedonism vibe. It’s kind of also the album’s downfall, though, because it’s just a bunch of really really awesome, bitchin’ songs that really just don’t have a lot of conflict. “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” “Sharp Dressed Man,” “Legs…” all 10/10 songs. But they never really go anywhere other than “FUCK YEAHHHHH!!!” And I think that’s the only real problem. As for the positives, I LOVE the guitar tones here. Same with the drum machines, which are surprisingly well-used here. Vocals are a little weak, or maybe just a little bit low in the mix, but they get the job done. I also feel like the album, while it could’ve been shorter (maybe try cutting “TV Dinners?”), is a pretty good length. Pretty cool closer, pretty cool album. 7.8/10
Im getting Dad Rock Banger after Banger!
A classic rock album I legitimately enjoyed. Pure fun to listen to. Nothing overly serious, yet not goofy. Just pure jams. 3.8/5.
I mean, it’s ZZ
Довольно плотный такой хардрок, уверенный в себе, с элементами даже гламура какого-то, не смотря на южный образ бородачей. Неплохой альбом, крутая обложка.
Most of the songs off this record were pretty good
One time I was at a bar in North Carolina and I met a guy who said he the drummer for ZZ Top and I still don’t know if he was serious
Very fun and memorable, one of the best rock albums of the time and filled with great energy.
Pretty nice album
Good rock
Gimme All Your Lovin’ Got Me Under Pressure Sharp Dressed Man I Got the Six Thug
Got Me Under Pressure Sharp Dressed Man I Need You Tonight Legs Thug Dirty Dog
The album is very much a tale of 2 halves - the first half is great, the second, not so much. I must confess that I prefer the earlier, bluesier version of ZZ Top to the 80's over processed version. I remember the videos that accompanied the singles which made my little teenage heart flutter.
Do like some zz top. Have seen them live - they look like linc in a few years
Teenage me wants to give this a 5. It was a bluesy-rocking bad ass album when it came out, and it still hits hard today. It's got a super clean production sound, awesome hard hitting bass beats and jamming guitar riffs to complement the fun lyrics.
Overall, this is an entertaining album. It’s got some big hits and is an easy listen for the most part. The shift toward a more mainstream sound doesn’t bother me; bands evolve, and that’s part of staying relevant. That said, Tres Hombres is still the better album.
This is my second ZZ Top album for this challenge. The have a specific sound and if you like it, you’ll love this album.
Insanely front loaded album, but those first three tracks are incredible. Sadly the rest of the album is overshadowed by it.
It does the damn thing.
I had a period where I really liked ZZ Top but then they fell out of my rotation for multiple years. I enjoyed listening and hearing these songs again but can’t see taking time to listen to them outside of a mix or radio.
Classic blues rock. Some great hits on this album.
Need to listen in full
3.6 Not at all what I was expecting. Where they a joke a band? They sound semi serious but surely they're taking the piss? Whatever, I actually quite enjoyed it. Only recognised Sharp Dressed Man which I'm not too fussed about. Other tracks were better. Got me Under Pressure and Legs were the highlights, nothing really that terrible so has to be rated as good overall.
1. Gimme All Your Lovin- Great riff, fun song, simple, good solo, outro- 9.1/10 2. Got Me Under Pressure- Fast paced, spicy, boring bridge, solid outro - 7.3 3. Sharp Dressed Man- Classic hit, great song, fun, awesome riff, great outro-9.5 4. I Need You Tonight- Great blues intro, ballad?, love the semi-emotional solo, great long outro - 9 5. I Got the Six- very spicy, fast, not a good theme, good outro - 6.69 6. Legs- Fun rhythm, spicy, quiet vocals, great guitar- 8.2 7. Thug- Weird (but good) sounding intro, funky bass, mediocre outro- 7.8 8. TV Dinners- Goofy theme (about poverty?), good solo, outro -8.1 9. Dirty Dog- Nice riff, spicy, solid guitar solo, good outro -7.7 10. If I Could Only Flag Her Down- Great drum sound, good guitar, great outro- 7.9 11. Bad Girl- high vocals, spicy, ok guitar- 7.0
Solidly Good to Very Good album with a couple all time great songs. I'm having a little bit of trouble rating this one, though. It's a definite 3.5 star album. 3 is too low, 4 is too high. I guess I'm pushing it to a 4 because of how good "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and "Sharp Dressed Man" are, but just know that it's actually 3.5 but the site refuses to allow half stars
Pretty good!
Dad rock and great beards.
I've never really listened to much ZZ Top. I dismissed them as very samey. I was right, but for the first half of this album it didn't matter, as - like AC/DC - it was great fun. Got a bit much through the second half. but I could listen to this again. After reviewing Joni Mitchell's Herjira as my previous album and despairing at the lack of rhythm, this was definitely a contrast.
My headphones died 3 times while trying to listen to this. I feel like I've tried to listen to it all week. It's really quite good. The grooves are great, the guitar playing is great, the vocals are... variable. Gimme all your loving is incredible, TV dinners not so much. It's a lot of fun though. I much prefer this to le grange or whatever the previous one we had from ZZ was.
1. Gimme All Your Lovin´: Me gusta, rocksito piolon. 7/10 2. Got Me Under Pressure: 7/10 3. Sharp Dressed Man: 8/10 4. I Need You Tonight: 7/10 5. I Got The Six: 7/10 6. Legs: 7,5/10 7. Thug: 6,5/10 8. TV Dinners: 7/10 9. Dirty Dog: 7/10 10. If I Could Only Flag Her Down: 7,5/10 11. Bad Girl: 6/10 Nota General: Osea es un buen albúm, es un buen rocksito, agradable al oído. No me parece nada del otro mundo ni ninguna locura. Ni pincha ni corta. Para mi es un sólido 7/10.
Great Album, lots of brilliant riffs.
Why is my foot tapping. Good album
Really good album, but no my favorite, and also I won’t be listening to this, because is not my vibe, but I have to admit that is a good album, good instrumental, good rhythm, but no my thing.
convincingly fun album, not life changing
Non li conoscevo. Album fighissimo
Duck dynasty theme
When to listen: road trip obviously, cross country in a junker. I would never have called myself a ZZ Top fan but I liked this album. "Gimme All You Lovin" "Sharp Dressed Man" and "Flag Her Down" especially.
why does every album from this era sound the same the whole way through
Solid boogie woogie blues album.
Can’t believe it’s taken me this long to listen to a Zz top album.
About as good as it gets for 80s rock.
Rv
I've most probably heard all the tracks on this album, but I'm not sure I've ever listened to it start to finish. This may not be my favorite ZZ Top album, but it's no slouch. I should probably add it to my library.
What’s fun about ZZ Top on Eliminator is that, although they present as grizzled rock backwoodsmen, the great success they achieved via this album came because they’d embraced some degree of electronica, synthesisers, and high-tempo drum machines due to their appreciation of what some British new wave bands were doing at the time. And there’s no sense that they did this cynically: they were open-minded and had moved their own music to different space while retaining its roadhouse-blues essence. It’s a fun paradox - and one of the endearing things about them was their self-deprecating sense of humour, highlighted in the MTV-saturating videos that accompanied the hit singles. The music is decent too. At heart, stripped back blues-heavy metal music without the annoying fantasy posturing that you usually associate with the genre.
This is classic dad rock. The guitar solos are pretty good and it's a nice vibe. The lyrics are a bit lacking on a lot of the songs, and they all blend together a little bit. Overall, this is a solid album, but there are a few things holding it back.
Excellent
Lots of hits on this album. I don’t think it was a “best off” album though. But I might be wrong😜
Just a solid rock album. Doesn't need to be anything more than that
Have to review this understanding what you’re listening to. It’s blues rock 4 on the floor with boogies and shuffles thrown in. It’s not lyrically deep stuff. It’s just rock and roll. It’s well done but samish. Which most ZZ Top is. Billy gibbons is the star here. And his guitar playing is stellar and soulful. I grew up with this stuff on mtv. 3.75 thanks to gibbons brilliance. And its sounds pretty modern too
i like it.. not the biggest fan of the beat and lyrics but the 80s rock essence was there which was nice.
Album #54, ZZ Top, Eliminator ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve seen this album panned on this subreddit, 1 and 2 star reviews every time I see it come up. Having never heard it, I feared the worst. I’m here to tell you that you are all wrong. This is class. A genuinely funny 80s rock album that doesn’t take itself seriously at all. It’s not an album that should even be critiqued. To think too much about it would be to miss the point. But let’s give it a go. This is Billy Gibbons’ album through and through. Though I do like Dusty Hill’s “I Got the Six” and his bass playing on “Thug”, the album is essentially a vehicle for Billy’s guitar, and what a player he is. It’s not flashy, it’s all tonal and it’s perfectly weighted. I don’t think I’d change a note that he plays on the whole album. He’s also a great singer. Understated for hard rock and a damn funny lyricist. The production is very 80s hard rock, which can be a bad thing on occasion, but here it works. It’s not over the top, it’s more like a sheen over the tracks that suits them perfectly. The one thing I’d say is it sounds mostly like a drum machine throughout the album and it’s very processed. I don’t mind drum machines or repetitive rhythms at all, but the drums can lack a bit of dynamism. Still, like the other choices on this album, it feels intentional and it serves the songs. Despite the silliness, I get the sense that all these songs were put together with a lot of thought and care, and it shows. Queens of the Stone Age haves cited them as a major influence and you can hear that swampy sound through a lot Josh Homme’s guitar work. For that alone, I am grateful.
De cuando ZZ Top se pusieron ochenteros y metieron sintetizadores y cajas de ritmos para acelerar sus ya subidas de revoluciones cadencias. Para mí ganaron la apuesta, ya que hicieron más accesible el blues rock que les caracterizaba y al mismo tiempo les daba una mejor carta de presentación para que sus vídeos entraran, además de por los ojos (sus larguísimas barbas por delante), por los oídos también en la poderosa máquina de la fama en que la MTV se había convertido. Así los conocí yo, por lo menos. Un álbum divertido de escuchar.
Ik heb deze geluisterd in de sportschool, pretty iconic weightlifting music. Echt vet. Hoe is dit hun ACHTSTE album?? En hoezo vind ik dit geweldig, maar Van Halen cringe af
Es un muy buen álbum. Tiene una musicalidad muy sólida y no es monótono. Una pieza de colección del rock del entonces.
this ZZ Top album was much more my speed, really enjoyed the whole thing
Pretty solid album but a bit repetitive.
All of them bangers? No. LOADS of them? HELL YES.
There is something about hard rock and heavy metal music that just makes me feel at home each time I listen to it. There is no way I could give less than 4 stars for this. Been contemplating 5, too, but decided I just don't love ZZ Top as much as I do Maiden, Sabbath, Deep Purple, Rainbow or Led Zeppelin. But do I enjoy them and this album? Hell yeah I do.
Great album by ZZ Top. Just shy of a 5. Wish again I could do half stars.
This was a fun one to revisit for the hits. This album has 4 certified bangers on it. And I'm old enough to remember the music videos for those bangers too. It was a great time to be alive. I never really listened too much to the back half of the album but it didn't offer as much as I would have wanted, but still a good listen overall. Biggest Hit - Gimme All Your Lovin' Biggest Miss - Dirty Dog Not So Hidden Gem - Sharp Dressed Man
ZZTop para mi siempre tienen algo especial, el sonido de las guitarras, el blues que se respira, etc...
Love this thumping album, not heard for ages, very enjoyable 🙌
Rockin out, good for a lot of different situations and activities. Not totally my style, but classic, good, and fun.
Definitely a product of the MTV music era. While still enjoyable to listen to, their earlier albums are better from a blues oriented perspective. This was their biggest commercial success fueled by great videos with recurring visual themes in all the videos. Great sing-along songs throughout. Definitely some fluff amongst the jewels ( tv dinners for example). 3 1/2 stars rounded up
Great album! Fun listen.
one of the more iconic "sellout" records of all time, and while zz top aint exactly the most beloved band of all time or anything, its pretty interesting that theyre not exactly jokes or punching bags either. including for me!,,,you'd think that hyper-masc white boy blues with glossy production values and cock rock lyrical sensibility would cause an allergic reaction...but perhaps that specific combination of elements isnt actually that common, it still commands a kind of novelty that its possible to appreciate even if ur burnt out on most of the idioms of classic rock. and yet the band is so much more concerned with Steadiness and musical discipline that putting the word "novelty" anywhere near them also feels kinda weird! in any case the result is easy to like...while the singles are probably all the most memorable musical ideas, theres a clear clarity and effort to every track that makes this a very good case scenario for buying an album by a band uve never heard of because you like one of their songs on the radio...i can understanding forming a p strong attachment when i think ab it like that
The good songs all sound the same - but I love the synth with blues rock guitar on top. It just drives the songs along. Surprised by how good this sounded. When they deviate from the formula (I Need You Tonight, Thug) it's nowhere near as good. But Gimme All Your Lovin', Sharp Dressed Man, Got Me Under Pressure, Legs are just pure stupid fun. The thing is, as an 80s kid, the fact that it had synthesizers all over it instead of bass guitar and whatever else never struck me at the time. That was just music. Loved it - but in smaller doses than a whole album.
Kunnon äijä rokkia. Vahva startti, kovimmat hitit isketty heti kärkeen. Loppupuoli tuntematon, mutta piti meiningin. Ei vaan tuonnut mitään uutta, samantyylisiä kappaleita. Parhaat: Gimme All Your Lovin', Got Me Under Pressure, Sharp Dressed Man, Legs
I only really know two songs from ZZ Top, and they're both on this album. Impressive! My prejudice about ZZ Top is that it's something you're 100% guaranteed to hear if stumble on a greaser rolling past you with the windows rolled down (which they always are). Jokes aside, 'Gimme All Your Lovin'', and 'Sharp Dressed Man' are really cool tracks with heavy riffs. They are sometimes hard to tell apart from me though. Still, first half of this album up until 'Thug' is really good in my opinion, with 'I Need You Tonight' being a really good track. Second half not really as strong. 'Heck, 'If I Could Only Flag Her Down' is basically 'Sharp Dressed Man' at different tempo and timings. This certainly is a quite one dimensional record, but I appreciate it for what it does. And it does what it does very well, despite its small shortcomings here and there.
I didn't want to like this. It's juvenile, shallow and formulaic. I really did like it though. It's just plain fun. There is nothing essentially innovative with the album but the tone of the guitar and the vocals just breathes rock n roll. There are a few stand out hits: "Sharp dressed man", "Gimme all your lovin" "Legs" etc. I thought i wouldn't like them as much as I did when I discovered ZZ Top at 13, but they are good songs. Even though they sound quite similar. Can't give it anything but a 4 star.
It's impressive how many of their hits are from this one album
I don't care what the reviews say, I enjoyed this
The album that took ZZ Top from That Little Ol' Band from Texas (great documentary as well) to a worldwide band. Gimme All Your Lovin' is one of their best songs. Many people would say this is their best album. For me, it's still Tres Hombres. Got Me Under Pressure is one of their most overrated songs. Sharp Dressed Man is their biggest hit, the video probably had as much to do with that as anything. It's crazy to think a bunch of blues rockers from Texas got super famous off a music video. I Got the Six has lyrics that a 13 year old boy would write. I wonder who got more out of sex joke lyrics, ZZ Top or AC/DC? Interesting they are like the first band and last band in the Classic Rock pantheon. Legs, another classic video. These guys are goof balls. The hits are the highlights, but it's a pretty good album.
Not much to the lyrics but quite fun
"Eliminator" is pure fun from start to finish. The album runs on tight grooves and confident 80s energy, with riffs that feel made for an action movie intro. There’s a strong atmosphere throughout: all bourbon, cigars, and muscle cars, matching the iconic cover perfectly. “Got Me Under Pressure” and “Thug” stand out for their driving rhythm and cool, controlled swagger. The production has that unmistakable 80s polish, but it adds to the charm rather than taking away from it. A stylish, groove-heavy record that doesn’t try to be deep...it just delivers attitude and momentum.
My brother bought this album on vinyl shortly after its release in the 80’s and I will never forget playing it over and over again in my grandparent’s basement. It kicked a** then and it still does! Giant guitars and drum beats that rock you through those tiny a** speakers of a 70’s record player. More than half of the album are classic ZZ Top songs. The nostalgia is real.
My neighbors was a backyard mechanic, he had 2 project cars in his garage, one was a 34 Ford he was building into a hot rod. The ZZ Top car is a 33 Ford, essentially the same look. I always pictured Mr McKee cruising around looking as cool as ZZ Top one day, not sure it ever made it out of the garage but so it goes. ZZ Top was the pinnacle of cool, loved this album, loved the videos, loved the cool car. Album still kicks ass, enjoyed it a couple times yesterday, enjoyed the nostalgia even more.
This was such a breath of fresh air after enduring that Billy Bragg album. My first thought after the first song started was "Fuck Yeah!". It was enjoyable from start to finish.
A great album
I liked a lot more of this album than even the tracks most know about.
This was a lot of big, dumb fun
Loved it. Was one of the first Cassatte tape I was given to as a kid. Groovy Rock.
ZZ Top's Black Album, the one most people know songs from, the one they hopefully made a giant pile of cash on because it projected them into the stratosphere and changed everything about the way longtime fans looked at them. From great American band to the company that made key chains. That said, it is a transitional album and has a few good tunes from without heavy synth\pop focus.

233/1001 ZZ Top - Eliminator Heard before? ❎ Revisit? ✅ The singles from this album are so great and whilst there isn't the same level of immediacy on first listen, I really enjoyed the rest of it.
ZZ top is really great! Some of these tracks got played out when it was first released. But the singles from this album rock! The other tracks are good, but maybe a bit too much of the same character (grizzled paunchy biker who likes the ladies); coulda mixed it up a bit. A 4.
Obviously, this is a bluesy rock album, but it manages this really modern/polished finish without losing any of the grit. It does feel very 80s with the synths and drum machines, but in a very stylish way. Production is great, really clean throughout, which does sound different than the traditional ZZ Top sound, but I think it works well. I didn’t miss the effect of live drums; however, I do have a soft spot for synthy 80s music, so this probably has an effect on my opinion. Progressions across tracks are pretty simple, but the electric guitar riffs are crunchy and work perfectly between vocals. Vocals, as usual for BG, are effortlessly cool; the gravelines and attitude in his voice match the tone of the album perfectly. The lyrics have a very tongue in cheek bravado to them but aren’t overly deep, which again works with the tone of the album in my opinion. Overall, this was a very cool album. ZZ Top are pretty much the epitome of cool dad garage rock music to me, so I find it hard to fault them.
𝘌𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘳 is ZZ Top at their most gloriously absurd: the beards are monumental, the cars are fast, and the videos look like someone handed MTV a Texas driver’s license and said, “Do whatever you want.” Yet beneath all the 80s gloss and swagger, the band still runs on Billy Gibbons’ guitar tone — a sound so gritty and confident it could probably sandblast a pickup truck. You can joke about the spinning guitars all day, but the man plays like someone who’s been negotiating directly with the blues gods. The synths and drum machines give the record a sleek, unmistakably 80s sheen, but the songs remain punchy, catchy, and weirdly charming. It’s equal parts polish and desert dust — a combination that shouldn’t work this well, but absolutely does.
Way better than I was expecting. 4/5. I may be getting inflated values but this album is a definite listen again.
Sauberes Ding, war aber auch sehr schnell auserzählt. Angenehme Abwechslung bot da Thug oder If I could only flag her down. Schwache 4 Sterne.
Wieder ein richtiger Klassiker und sehr ikonisch für seine Zeit. Hab ich dreimal gehört. Weniger weil ich es so komplett überragend gefunden hätte, sondern um mich zu vergewissern, wie gut ich es tatsächlich finde. Verglichen mit anderen Bestnoten, die ich verteilt, kommt es da aber einfach nicht ganz ran, dafür ist mir das alles doch zu invariant.
Ich habe mich nie besonders mit ZZ Top beschäftigt. Die paar Hits hab ich natürlich gekannt, wenn auch wie heute festgestellt nicht immer mit dem Namen ZZ Top in Verbindung gebracht. Das Ding ist, das hier gefällt mir richtig richtig gut. Hätte ich nicht den Fehler begangen und die Lyrics beim zweiten Durchlauf gelesen wäre das sogar eine 5 für mich, so leider nur eine enorm Spaßige 4+
J'ai bien apprécié l'écoute de cet album, sans doute la 1ère fois pour moi et je trouve que c'est un classique et je m'enflamme avec un 4 étoiles !
classic rock album
I thought this was pretty good. I usually like ZZ Top, though I don't find them to have too much depth. It's like they're just there to kick ass and grow beards, and they've already grown the beards. A number of songs on here I knew well even without having heard the album before. Sharp Dressed Man might be their most iconic song. The rest didn't stray too far away from that mold, even if they didn't really match it's quality. I didn't really find any of it bad, but maybe a little more boring. I thought that was a little better on this album than it had been on Tres Hombres. Still, it caused the album to drag a bit toward the end. I did find it odd that some of the songs felt more like Eagles tracks than what I expect from ZZ. I didn't hate it, but it caught me off guard a bit. All said, this was a pretty cool, fun listen. I wouldn't call it great, but I did think it was pretty good. Overall: 3.75/5
Great album. Good energy and some variety throughout. Some absolute bangers on this album
Fun rock with a loyal of personality and willingness to let the guitars ride. Has just as much sex as ACDC, but I feel like they at least think women are people
Very nice
ts so peak
A couple great tracks. Gimme All Your Lovin', Sharp Dressed Man. A bit repetitive from there, but I'm not complaining.
Tidig maiden riktigt bra
Now, while I'm not the biggest fan of this style of music. Or even the band itself. I don't know there is something endearing about them. Perhaps it's because my father did enjoy them. And I mean you can't deny their technical proficiency. Or the hits. So... Yeah. It's alright.
Eu gostei do álbum. Possui alguns hits conhecidos e as outras músicas são boas. QoA Vesper.
This record is nostalgic for me. I didn’t realize how many hits are on this record. On top of that , the guitar tone and playing is just so damn good. Not much to say other than I enjoyed it.
Þétt rokk.
This album is just a good time. Some great songs on here though it really falls off in the second half. Some of the deeper cuts--"I Need You Tonight" and "Thug" with that slappin bass--are good but a few throw-aways towards the end. Yes, the lyrics are vapid as hell but the bearded boys (and Frank Beard on drums) keep this one humming right along. I was seeing all those great 80's videos as I listened. Rounded up from 3.5 stars.
Top shelf hard rock songs about looking good and getting laid. (Though they do take a break from singing about late nights and hot chicks to slip some social commentary in on “TV Dinners.”) ZZ Top are awesome. Their energy is killer, their performances are tight, and the production is polished. You really can’t go wrong with this if you’re looking for loud and ripping rock n roll.
ZZ Top are such a cool, unbothered, and unproblematic band (I may regret that but I don't recall hearing any serious controversy from them ever). Their sound is solid, unique, fun, and objectively nice to listen to. This record has a few classics on it, "Gimme All Your Lovin'", "Sharp Dressed Man", and "Legs" is really solid too. Overall the sound is a bit dated and you definitely have to put on your "I don't care if it's cringey" hat and just groove to it. Solid 4/5 for me. I will forever share the fun fact that Jimi Hendrix's favorite guitarist was Billy Gibbons. That's really saying something!
This is what I would put on if I was cruising through outer space while on like a flying corvette or smt. Its fun, its groovy, I like the guitar work on it a lot, especially on the track, "I need you tonight." I give it a 7.3/10
Good ole classic ZZ Top. A few of their hits, a few songs I haven't heard before, all pretty good. As a 3 piece band they really get a ton of sound out, and they have a great command of the instruments too. Punchy and rockin without being cliche. Good strong entry
I forget how blues/jazzy ZZ Top can be until I listen to an album
Great driving drum beat and impressive guitar, lyrics let it down. I thought i didnt like the long instrumental sections but they were ok, just could have been shorter. Maybe road trip music
Great rock album, fun, steady beat that makes you shake your head in sync with the rythm. Gimme All Your Lovin’ and Sharp Dressed Man are classics, certified bangers. Overall, very strong album with one or two skips.
gscheidter rock, fetzig, aber keine überbanger und ab der zweiten hälfte wird dann repetitiv 4/5
From my vantage point, Eliminator was a huge leap. ZZ Top went from a name I was vaguely aware of, to a global household name. And the change didn’t reinvent the ZZ wheel. In fact the changes were production tweaks and clever branding. They became a marketing dream with a cool logo, the band basically turning into a car, and MTV friendly videos with plenty of girls. Actually women, and though it might’ve had the appearance of potentially exploitative, my memory of those videos is that of women who were very much in charge. Probably a discussion for elsewhere but the music… it might’ve been taboo to mention at the time, and it is very subtle, but my now trained ears hear sequencers disguised as chugging guitars driving the rhythms all over Eliminator. It’s anathema to their earthy roots, but the difference it makes to how radio friendly the songs became is palpable. It’s production rather than musical development. The songs actually became more formulaic but it still worked because these guys know their way around a tune, and can fit a jam band mentality into a pop song structure. So many of the melodic hooks are actual guitar soloing. It’s quite a feat if you can pull it off. They even manage to slow things down here and there and get away with it. The formula saw them an album or two more, but this was the sweet spot.
“TV Dinners” feels like a jingle for a bad 80s commercial and if this list had half stars, I’d knock it down a half a star for that track. But the rest of the album is fun.
No ZzZz's here.
The big hits have undoubtedly been overplayed on dad rock FM radio over the years, but it still hits quite nicely. Arguably ZZ Top at their best
Some great, memorable songs. Sexist, yes. Fun, also yes. Would definitely happily listen to.
8.0/10 This is one of the first records I got growing up.. so I remember listening to this really fondly. Loved the videos as well!
Better than we expected. Nothing flashy, but very sold structure and instrumentation.
6.5/10
Well crafted.
Great break out record
Bluesy fuzz rock with synths!
Close to a 5, fantastic.
This is the first of two ZZTop albums where the band, like so many others at the time, let themselves get coaxed into using the technology de jour - drum machines and synthesizers. The result is ... surprisingly good, if a little poppy, even if you loved them for their older material. Billy Gibbon's guitar is still front and center (metaphorically speaking), and with or without the new technology, the songs groove like there is no tomorrow. It helps that this album contains some of ZZTop's greatest his: Gimme All Your Lovin', Sharp Dressed Man and Legs all were in MTV's heavy rotation for a reason. So, while I slightly prefer the other album from that era of the band - Afterburner - this is really an important classic that deserves all the accolades it received. 4/5
Genuinely had a great time listening to this. It's like Van Halen but better.. and with longer beards..
Some great grooves. Some filler. Harmonies are for real. 3.5

An album I haven't listened to since I was a kid, some great hits here. Gimme All Your Lovin’ ★★★★☆ Got Me Under Pressure ★★★☆☆ Sharp Dressed Man ★★★★☆ I Need You Tonight ★★★☆☆ I Got the Six ★★★☆☆ Legs ★★★★☆ Thug ★★★☆☆ TV Dinners ★★★☆☆ Dirty Dog ★★★☆☆ If I Could Only Flag Her Down ★★★☆☆ Bad Girl ★★★☆☆ Average Album Rating: 3.3/5.0 ★★★☆☆
Hell yeah. All time great rock album, dripping with double (and sometimes single) entendre, it's riff-rock at its absolute finest. It's hard not to feel a certain something when this one is spinning, and if that's a fist forming in your hand, feel free to pump it.
love the rock ness of it. felt like i was in an 80s movie
fun and some bangers
so incredibly 80s
My favorite so far actually! 3.75! I was boppinggggg. Enjoyed the first half more than the second half bc tbh…. it started to sound a bit all the same. So on that note…. I don’t want to hear more rock bros tell me that all Taylor songs sound the same!!!
sharp dressed maaaaan
Some real classics and a few that did not quite seem to belong.
I guess this is as good as southern blues rock gets. Excellent guitar work and vocals bordering on metal territory. A couple of duds, but mostly solid tunes
Good vibes!!!
very good
Fast and fun. Really catches the 80s vibes.
Can someone please explain to me why I like this so much. On the surface I should hate everything about this, it's just cheesy and somewhat generic dad rock. But for some reason it doesn't repulse me at all, there's still something so fun and enjoyable about it.
ZZ Top is fine, not a huge fan but I do look forward to listening to one of their albums. Normally this isn't the type of music I like but for some reason I am digging this album, fun rock and roll. Not my favorite but there are definitely some good songs on here. Can easily see why they were so big in the 80's.
Äijä/faijarokkia parhaimmillaan. Kiva levy ja toimittelee
Perusvarmaa hyvää menoa ja pari legendaarista kipaletta, niin ehkä sillä nelkun jo ansaitsee.
Väkevää jynttätänttää parilla ikivihreellä. Hyvää saundia ja taattua rokettirollia. Parrat pärisee nelosen eestä.
Classic dad rock album, great riffs, great energy, fun album to listen to and got me pumped on my way to work
ZZ Top is so much more than a couple of great singles and sweet beards. This record kicks ass.
Sharp!
Fun
Solid rock album
Slapper
Makes me want to ride motorbikes, drink whiskey and smoke cigars. Rockin’ stuff. Love it
Great piece of blues rock. Something was making me think these songs sounded "commercial," as in they belonged as backing to an advertisement or a movie... I think I may have tracked this feeling back to the usage of "Gimme All Your Lovin'" in the third act of Tim Allen's The Santa Clause. "Sharp Dressed Man" was also the theme to a big TV show. Also - I only just now discovered that the unauthorized ZZ Top cameo in the bar in Sierra On-Line's Space Quest I (1986) includes a rough MIDI version of "Well Dressed Man."
Eliminator is one of those albums that just feels built for motion. The guitars growl, the synths hum with that unmistakable 80s sheen, and every groove lands with the confidence of a band who know exactly what they are doing. ZZ Top managed to modernise their sound without losing the swagger that made them who they were in the first place, and the result is a record that still feels infectious decades later. It is slick, but never sterile, and the combination of blues grit and electronic polish works far better than it has any right to. The big singles are unavoidable but still a blast. “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” “Sharp Dressed Man,” and “Legs” are stamped into pop culture for a reason. The hooks are massive, the riffs stick instantly, and the whole thing has this almost cartoonish cool that makes it impossible not to enjoy. Deeper cuts keep the engine running too, with that steady drum-machine pulse and Billy Gibbons’ guitar tone gliding right over the top. It is an album that knows exactly how to make you nod along before you even realise you are doing it. If there is a criticism, it is only that the production style is so locked into the era that the album can feel almost too polished in places. That raw bar-band looseness from earlier ZZ Top records gets traded for tight sequencing and radio-ready gloss. But honestly, it works. Eliminator has a charm all its own, and the band lean into the aesthetic with so much commitment that it becomes hard not to be swept up in it. It is fun, confident, and endlessly replayable, and that is exactly what this era of ZZ Top was all about.
Pure rock candy
Album’s instrumental backbone is consistent and the hi-hats remind me of an album made with just extended “Legs” tracks. But that’s a good thing. I almost lost it listening to “I got your six” for the first time. Can’t believe I haven’t heard that before. What the hell! Solid 4 on the album.
A lot of the great ZZ Top songs you think of when you think of ZZ top in here.
Old dudes got riffs!
I thought it was a pretty good listen. Sharp Dressed Man and Gimme All Your Lovin’ the standouts. Wouldn’t be on high rotation at my place but would be happy to listen to it occasionally when the mood was right
Great classic Rock and Roll album. What's not to like?
I knew the first three songs and legs. The guitar is very simple but has really good feel it fits perfectly with the music.
Classx
Zztop er veldig gøy! Morsom god klassisk rock!
Tres Hombres with synth.
Starts off strong and just ok at the tail end
Some good ol' classic rock. Has surprisingly great guitar work
i fell asleep listening to this. but objectively i guess it's okay...... i mean.... it all just souns like one really long song.... infinite song....
This album is like being stuck behind a logging truck on the open road, and finally getting a clear stretch of road to overtake it. Now that you’re past the truck, it’s time to floor it and make up for lost time.
ZZ Top has some solid hits, and a good chunk of them came from this album. The first half of the album is great, but the second brings it down a bit. However, "I Need You Tonight" is my favorite ZZ Top song, and it's a great driving song, so that kinda brings it up.
100% dad rock but I had a good time listening
Wonderful bit of music. Just a bit of good listening.
fuckin love ZZ Top - see them live while you still can. Perhaps the finest conversion of a 70s hard rock band to the stylings of the 80s; they still groove, but you can sing along too
Every song is the same but half of them have a fun synth. There’s only 2 or 3 songs I’d lose off this thing, and I’d maybe cut a minute of fade out out of the others, but honestly had a blast listening to this.
This is a great album, with a ton of hits. Even the album tracks are really good. The only thing holding this album back from being really stellar is the fact that it’s from ZZTops 80’s synth era. I would much prefer the more stripped down sound they had in the 70’s, but these are still great songs.
Sure, all the songs kinda sound the same, but I have a soft spot for them since they were in Back To The Future III.
Sharp Dressed Man will always make me think of Poppa White. I liked the album more than I expected, so that plus nostalgia = a 4.
7/10 uncomplicated and driving. lyrics are dumb, but the head bops to the beat in a pleasing way. 11-07-2025
Kinda quite liked this…
buttrock. this is good stuff. was not expecting the grooves that they get into in this album. also reminds me of the uniracers soundtrack not my absolute favorite, but some good jams
This is a guilty pleasure of mine. I sing these songs to myself often when cleaning. It's fun and dumb!
Listened to half the album. Up to the point I listened, ‘Legs’ was my favourite.
The singles of this album introduced me to ZZ Top in the first place but listening now, you can hear how over-produced it is. Frankly, I prefer their older stuff these days.
Seems quite odd that it took damn near 90 albums to get to actual U.S. Blues. No, Jack White's neo garage blues don't count. Good old fashion Texas style blues. Not the Stones, or the Who's or Clapton's blues. Authentic American Blues. This is how its done though homogenized by the mainstream. Still the blues. Gotta love ZZ Top. The only reason why I've seen Kid Rock is to see these bearded badasses.
ZZ Top are the undisputed kings of the Texas boogie rock thing for sure. But this album finds them crossing that classic rock sound with the electronic dance sounds of the early 80s. Obviously it was a rousing success for them and their fuzzy guitars and flashy '33 Ford Coupe are iconic images from my childhood. So while it's not the ZZ I'd dig out of it were hankering for a listen, it's certainly a decent enough record chock full of catchy 80s hits and nostalgia. 3.5/5
Not as good as the three singles would have you think. Really enjoyable, sometimes insistent and VERY reminiscent of 1983.
pretty solid, sexy, energetic album, electrifying, i really liked it, however it had a few okay tracks and one i really wasn't a fan of. has an air of misogyny in two tracks that stinks. still, some of the songs will definitely enter my playlist. overall score: 8.5 favourite ones: gimme all your lovin, thug, sharp dressed man, tv dinners, i need you tonight, bad girl
Echt goed niet zo een lange album het eerste nummer is mijn favoriet
They were real freaks back in the day
Not bad.
The Beards rule! This record rips. Hard rock with a pop sensibility and driving beat. Nostalgia vibes, some parts veer cheesy 80s, overall a blast.
Rock and roll, baby
Just a good rock album.
RIP Dusty. A great band and a fun, fantastic album. Though I much prefer the more bluesy, gritty earlier albums this one was super polished and well produced. Bonus: Gimme All Your Lovin' was used in The Santa Clause so there's that.
I remember riding around in my dad's 1994 Cutlass Ciera listening to this cassette. Despite losing some edge while dipping its toe into the MTV synth swimming pool of 1983, this album is still a classic. Billy Effing Gibbons.
What you'd expect from za za
Did I learn today that I like ZZ Top? Yep. Never would have thought to listen to them, but this is a solid classic rock album.
I forgot how bluesy ZZ Top really is underneath the obvious hits. Really enjoyed the guitar work on this album.
Best Song: Dirty Dog A good listen and home to many of ZZ Tops biggest hits. 4/5.
Finished. 8.5/10
Straightforward, great grooves.
Day 64 Excellent, sometimes big dumb rock music about fucking is exactly what you want to listen to. 8/10 Highlights I need you tonight I got the six Bad girl
interessante
7/10 Favorite: Sharp Dressed Man
Packed with iconic hits—“Sharp Dressed Man” and “Legs” are pure rock swagger. But the energy fades in the final tracks, leaving the album slightly uneven. Still, a classic.
Didn't like it so much back in the day but did enjoy hearing it today!
This is the best album by “that little band from Texas” in my opinion. Five of the eleven tracks were singles or at least had lots of radio play. ZZ Top was smart (or lucky) enough to take advantage of MTV at its prime, with their shiny old car and spinning guitars in their videos. Not quite a five star rating, but pretty close.
wait why did i love
Raise your horns 🤘, it's time to rock! I never realized how "new wave" this sounded based on the singles. Kinda repetitive musically (12 bar blues scale for almost everything), but that's their MO.
Such a solid
Run's out of steam a bit by the end, but 5 or so of these songs are stone cold classics. I love Legs. 4 Stars.
I remember when this came out I was a bit disappointed when I first heard it… I was a “Rio Grande Mud” “Tres Hombres” kind of guy. But it grew on me fast… regardless of the sounds used the song writing and guitar playing are top notch! This era of Z Z Top probably insured their longevity …. Great memories of seeing them on MTV when I hear these tunes! 4 stars !!
I enjoyed it
Swaggering blues, crunching fuzzy guitars, a layer of synths just underneath. Sometimes funky, particularly the bass which often takes a real slapping. Some nasty blues licks on guitar. Straightforward, good old fashioned rock and roll. A few filler tracks but the hits are BIG. Favourite track - Sharp Dressed Man. 8/10
Some bloody good tracks. A couple of duds give it a 4.
Getting slightly repetitive towards the end of the album.
Banger after banger. Great album.
Fun album! Lots of hits here, and even the other tracks are fun bops. There's some stuff that I think lyrically isn't great, like "TV Dinners," but the whole vibe of the album is enjoyable.
🤘
Except for the hits off this album and songs like La Grange and Tush I have not listened to much ZZ Top. It definitely takes you back to the early 1980s. I remember them playing Gimme All Your Loving, Sharp Dressed Man and Legs constantly on the radio and MTV. Overall, my impression of ZZ Top was they were always a bit too southern fried for my taste, but this is a pretty good album of blues rock. Songs that will get your toe tapping.
Fun, good gardening music
Very good album and lots of fun to listen to
Das Albom hed halt scho ganz klar zwöi Banger: Give me all your loving ond shart dressed man. Die zwöi send ned nome mini Favorite, sondern au klar die meischt gstreamte Stöck us dem Albom. Das lod sech au erkläre: Sie hend halt alles wo so e Rock song bruucht: E riff wo hangebliibt, e gueti balance zwösche stemm, schlagzüüg ond Rockgitarre. ond e gueti Portion energie. Das fätzt de halt scho. De andere Stöck fählt denne halt emmer ergendöppis. Got me under Pressure esch de Riff met zwöi akört wo sech abwächsled halt scho ned s spannendschte. I Need You Tonight wörd besser fonktioniere, wenn t Gittare no vel meh wörd hüüle wies Dire Straits super hebechömed. Ech chönnt jetzt so wiiter mache aber de Ponkt esch glaub klar. Sie send huere Talentiert, das merkt mer guet, es fählt aber no gärn ergend e chliine teil was huere schad esch. Trotzdem fätzed die meischte lieder ghörig ond mer cha jo au ned verlange dass jedes lied e absolute Bager esch. Drom geds es ufgrondets 4 *.
Unexpectedly glorious. Crank it up.
Hot stuff! FS: Sharp Dressed Man
Surprisingly good fun!
