Editorial Reviews:
ZZ Top, the "little ol' band from Texas", has enjoyed enormous success on a global scale since their breakthrough in the early seventies and then their groundbreaking albums in the mid-eighties. Now for the first time one of ZZ Top's legendary live performances has been filmed for simultaneous release on DVD & Blu-ray. The track listing spans their career from early tracks such as "Waitin' For The Bus", "Just Got Paid" and the classic "La Grange", through their eighties blockbusters including "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and "Legs" (complete with furry guitars!) and up to more recent hits like "Pin Cushion". Filmed in their home state of Texas in front of a wildly enthusiastic audience, this DVD & Blu-ray captures ZZ Top at their very best.

TRACK LISTING 1) Got Me Under Pressure 2) Waitin' For The Bus 3) Jesus Just Left Chicago 4) I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide 5) Pin Cushion 6) Cheap Sunglasses 7) Pearl Necklace 8) Heard It On The X 9) Just Got Paid 10) Rough Boy 11) Blue Jean Blues 12) Gimme All Your Lovin' 13) Sharp Dressed Man 14) Legs 15) Tube Snake Boogie 16) La Grange 17) Tush

Summary: A Must for any collection
Comment: Again I was able to add another fantastic one to my collection, this one is so awesome. The boys, Dusty, Billy and Frank have given us a tribute to a great band, wonderful performance, awesome purchase.

Summary: Will never see my DVD Player again.
Comment: I rarely review, but felt compelled to save people from this one. The audio is horrible. I tried DD, DTS, stereo, etc. Muddy, muddled, echo'y...not sure else how to describe it. The vocals are completely a mess...like they are singing thru a pillow, while the instruments are wide open. The video is crisp and clear, but often, it shifts scene to scene every 2 seconds. I could make lots of comments about content, but it is useless due to my above comments. I like ZZ!. But this is a disaster.

Summary: Does Billy have arthritis?
Comment: I always knew these guys were getting long in the tooth because they were my rock heros when I was in diapers, sucking on fudgesicles (I'm now 46). I have to think that Billy Gibbons is suffering from arthritis because his timing and accuracy in hitting guitar notes is just awful. It's actually painful to hear these guys play. Frank Beard (drummer) looks like he'd rather be attending a funeral than playing this gig. With all the other reviewers complaining about the poor audio mix on this disc, I can't beleive no one else noticed this lackluster performance of the "L'il Ol' Band from Texas."

Summary: Crappy Sound Mixing!
Comment: I've heard some good and some bad recordings of live performances. This one literally stinks it's so bad. I tried to remain enthusiastic but it never got any better throughout the entire DVD. (In my particular case it certainly can't be blamed on the equipment. I have top of the line Polk Audio speakers & subwoofer set up for 5.1 Surround and driven by a Sony 770w receiver.) It's crappy recording and mixing. Not at all what I'd expect from ZZ Top.

Summary: ZZ over the TOP
Comment: Three chord rock is probably the hardest genre of music to pull off live. However, ZZ Top exceeds the everything is bigger and and better in Texas expectation with a stompin' down home stage performance where every tune is a recognizable hit made in the good ol' USA. I'd love to party with these guys! This video is the next best thing.
