    Frank's playing reminds me of Ringo Starr's playing in the Beatles... He plays tight, he doesn't overplay, and he is the perfect drummer for the band.

      I agree wholeheartedly with that observation. I was just listening to "Heard it on the X" on the Bose system in the car, very loud, multiple times, because it is short track, and I love it. While Billy's playing is exceptional, and him and Dusty trading lines back and forth is awesome, Frank's drumming and cymbal playing in my opinion, is the icing on the cake for that song; and so many others. 1975 there with that song. Fast forward to 1983 and the beginning beat to "Gimme all your lovin" is unmistakable due to Frank's playing. Very much like Ringo, and another comes to mind in Charlie Watts.

    He came over and met my wife and I in 89 or 90 . I met him through a friend that used to pinstripe ZZ Top’s guitars . We had a model car club and heard Frank collected model race cars. He stayed for over an hour looking at all the miniatures I had painted. He was just a down to earth person that was big into collecting. He said his wife doesn’t like it that he collects models. It was interesting to hear that from him. He was a stickler for detail and perfectionist in models. The only thing he mentioned about touring the world is their was no place as good as the United States. I know him in a completely different way then most people. If he read this comment he would remember who I am. He couldn’t forget the collection he saw.

    Great drummer, I didn't know how messed up he was but behind the kit he was a human metronome no matter what condition he was in. There are so many sober (and wasted!) drummers that can only dream of having his talent. Frank Beard has it, in a major way.

    A bit of a story about Frank. ZZ Top was playing in Ottawa. My brothers landlord always grew some of the best weed available in the world, period. Someone that was working with the band in Ottawa knew this fact. Frank and the worker showed up at my brothers landlords place, it was a duplex, and purchased some weed. After they left the landlord ran over to my brothers place to see if he had any ZZ Top albums. Of course, my brother did, and Franks face was in most of the liners of the albums, and it was indeed him that was there.

    Yep, most celebrities' private lives are played out in public... but not for ZZ Top! Outside of the music and the videos, I don't remember seeing anything else about these 3 guys at all. Their individual names were public knowledge. I remember thinking if they shaved and took off the dark glasses and hats, they could still go out in public and be anonymous. Nice to see them sharing what some of their struggles were. Some entertainers avoid that because they believe fans want the entertainment and the escape, not to go there and hear about real life problems! Anyway, it humanizes them.

      ​​​​@@williamtobin7282Yeah man, I remember taking a bus from Milwaukee to Tampa in 77 I think and digging on some ZZ Top Fandango L.P. maybe and Gladys Knight and the Pips on a Greyhound bus I mean it was just crazy and in those days it was still tolerable the worst thing about the ride was the accommodations but everybody was cool I would not want to do that trip again today we have to be afraid all the people you might offend. heee. But yeah man ZZ Top has always been at the top of that list more than and now but always dug them and God bless Dusty Hill and I always really admired Frank Beard,Billy and Dusty.

    Frank was super open and forthcoming with details about his life in this documentary - pity the same can't be said about Billy and Dusty, who kept the shades on, and just perpetuated the myths.

      I think Billy probably was doing a lot of cocaine in 1980. Judging by how thin he was and the whack animation in performance,especially the 1980 Rockpalast concerst.
