I know by now this is old news but my favorite all time band ZZtop lost one of its three members a few days ago, Dusty Hill their bass guitarist who also had an amazing voice. I was set to go see them in concert next week. And they still are holding the date on Dusty's request.

Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard and Dusty Hill started ZZtop back in the early 70's and have been together since. Holding the record for a band with the same original members for over 50 years. Not the Beatles, not The Eagles, not Fleetwood Mac can say that.

They've done music for the Back to the Future trilogy. Even showing up as the band at the clock tower party when Doc and Marty found themselves in 1885. Their music videos often showed sexy women getting out of Billy's 32 Ford roadster, and helping a "nobody" find themselves. By the time their album Afterburner came out many of the music videos featured the car in a series of storylines ultimately leading to the car being crushed and reincarnated into a space shuttle.


Rest in peace Dusty. God was ready to sip a little Tequila with you.
