LOVED IT!.. ZZ Top - Gimme All Your Lovin' | FIRST TIME HEARING REACTION

[@bobschenkel7921]

Billy Gibbons is a huge car enthusiast, and this 1932 Ford Custom is one of his prized possessions. Videos like this are why MTV was invented. And ZZ Top was already about 15 or more years into their career, so they weren't really "young" at this point. They were well established, but the MTV thing was new for them.

Billy Gibbons was originally in a band called the Moving Sidewalks. He hooked up with Frank Beard and Michael "Dusty" Hill to form ZZ Top. Billy says they chose the name so their records would be in the very last record bin in the music stores, so they wouldn't be overlooked and were easy to find. Anyone who ever shopped at The Wherehouse or Musicland knows that strategy worked.

Eliminator was ZZ Top's biggest selling album, in large part due to their videos. Their music has always been amazing, but they tapped into a new audience with these videos and the MTV world loved it and so the videos took on the theme and the car was the main attraction. The guy who gets bullied or beaten down then comes out on top with the car and the girls. PERFECTION!

[@casualguy393]

This is 1 of their more Pop songs, which is a great, feel good song. If you want to hear Billy's true guitar talent then "I Need You Tonight" is a must. Just like David Gilmore, you don't need to play fast to make music that hits you in the chest. In my Top 10 guitar solos, Comfortably Numb has 2 solos in it, while "I Need You Tonight" has 2 more. Get that? 4 solos in the Top 10 are in 2 songs. 2000 Blues is also a Goodun.

Always really well-played and well-produced songs! This was their first album and first single where they went with a very very basic beat and some synths and some 80's style and it took us fans a bit of time to adjust but we got used to it.
