    Available Now: mercury-studios.lnk.to/ZZTopDoc
    Produced by the Emmy award-winning Banger Films, ZZ TOP: THAT LITTLE OL’ BAND FROM TEXAS tells the story of how three oddball teenage bluesmen - Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, and Frank Beard - became one of the biggest, most beloved bands on the planet, all while maintaining a surrealist mystique that continues to intrigue fans and entice onlookers 50 years after the band’s inception.
    Buoyed by candid band interviews, never-before-seen archive, animation, celebrity fan testimonials (Billy Bob Thornton, Joshua Homme and more), and an intimate performance at the legendary Gruene Hall shot exclusively for this documentary, “That Little Ol’ Band” runs the gamut, from the absurd to the poignant, from squalid Texas bars to MTV heroics, all in celebration of this notoriously private, but larger than life, power trio. In the end, ZZ TOP: THAT LITTLE OL’ BAND FROM TEXAS unravels the extraordinary tale of a band whose image we know, but whose story we don’t.

      Right now there are many "drummers" on social networks who give their opinion and play acrobatically "which makes it look easy" but who have not created anything, they only learned to play a song acrobatically but they do not make music, they are not in a band and only They criticize the work of others.

      It's not really the right piece to judge especially since it makes a huge blunder at 3:02 by missing the break and shifting the beat... It happens... Good for drummers the shuffle is a somewhat difficult rhythm, it requires a little coordination and nuance. I like him he's good.

I came up to him, introduced myself and told him "Me and ALL my friends have been jamming to you since Rio Grande Mud and I just wanted to say thanks for all the great music all these years". He shook my hand and said 'That is the best thing I could ever hear". What a gentleman.

    I grew up in La Grange, TX and I was there when ZZ Top performed the song *La Grange* in La Grange, back in 2015 at the Fayette County Fairgrounds. It was one of the more important milestones in my life. I've loved this band since I got my first album of theirs (Rio Grande Mud) back in 1972. Despite the occasional rough edges in their music these days, they're still one of my all-time favorites.

I got to meet him when he was in residence and spent quite a bit of time with him both at home and hanging out in a local bar. He was and is a very cool/crazy/interesting guy.

    This is the smoothest band ever. Billy Gibbons just has an aura about him that just oozes "smooth". One bit of trivia for those who hadn't thought about it. The drummer, Frank Beard is the only one in the band without a beard. Kind of ironic. I'm sure that was done by design. Anyway, this was the first ZZ Top song I played on the guitar. Great song!!

The second time, walked in the front door and straight on stage and sang sweet home Chicago, and walked through the crowd and out the back door to his limo and disappeared like a fucking ghost. Super duper nice guy.

    I saw ZZ Top play on their first tour to NY promoting their Album,. this was the big song. They played in the Felt Forum underneath Madison Square Garden. They played this during the show and again for the encore. Everyone was revved up and called them back for a 3rd encore. But then with the whole crowd yelling ZZ Top and stomping on their seats etc,.,. someone threw a cherry bomb up onto the stage and I think the Mic's were still on it sounded like a big bomb had gone off,. the Band Ran back on stage not expecting a 3rd encore but had no songs left,. They Said I guess you can't leave until Sunday Morning lol and they did a number of Johnny Cash songs. It was really memorable.

Fandango! is their 4th album. Very cool that you saw them at/near their first peak in popularity! I didn't catch on to their greatness until much later...like Eliminator time frame...but have seen them several times since then. Looking forward to the new Blu-ray!
