ZZ Top Tube Snake Boogie

[@jmsmaxwell]

Born back in 42, I've watched music evolve for a long long time. Various artist have come and gone. Some still haning in and the mustic has gotten better and better. Unfortunately what passes for music now days is so commercial that it has no soul and the language is not worth listening to. Yet some still rise to the top.

ZZ-top...od lat, mój ulubiony zespół. Ich, sposób, wykonywania utworów, ubiór i długie brody, nieustająca werwa na scenie i niektóre, niesmiertelne dla mnie utwory, jak Sharp dressed man- pozostaną, na zawsze w mej pamięci. NURT52.

I saw Top on the El Loco tour way back in 1981!! This was the song that got all the radio air play off that album. But Top was great live!! They played a fantastic show that night!!

[@jmsmaxwell]

Considering I was born in 1942 I grew up hearing The Big Bands and a lot of blues late at night on radio. We moved a lot back then as my dad worked the shipyards and oilfield. a radio was a big deal back then and I learned how to set up a long wire antenna to pull in distant stations. When I was stationed in the UK I found more blues bands that you could imigine. Amerian sailors brough over records from the states and sold them to the Brits who love blues.

Man you saw some of the greats!! I dig Blues also. I couldn't do the Disco scene though, but as I get older and hear this stuff they pass for music now, some of the disco songs were good. I do have some in my collection I have to admit. Today you have to have a spacific sound. To me it all sounds the same. Back then you had to have a unique sound to make it. IMO producers are the major cause of this stuff that's released.

Great funky rock n roll right here

[@mkschreder]

"I got a girl, she lives on the hill.. she wouldn't do it but her sister will". Awesome! :-D

HAWA HAWA HAWA HAWA YAWA YAWA YAWA YAWA .. MY ISLAND GIRL ROCKS MY WORLD

[@ThatandCo]

the tube snake boogie is California surfer lingo from the 60's, for riding a surfboard.

[@cbcrog]

I like this version the bass is a lot more pronounced.

[@jmsmaxwell]

I'm 70, "back in the day" saw the Doors, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and many other while stationed in England and oversea through out Asia and Europe. May sound hokey to many but back then you could feel the beat, understand the words and they did not have to resort to profanity and nudity to promote good hard driving music. From Boogie, Blues, Rock and even classical. Hate to admit it but even enjoyed the Disco era with great rhythm. Unfortunately no musical ability. Forgot to spell ck

[@larrydick100]

Tube snake...I think I have one of those

[@GYPSYSILVERMAN]

If aint southern it aint ROCK a real master peice

[@meigsman59]

And i'll throw in the 250+ albums and 800+ cd's i've amassed in the last 40 years.

[@meigsman59]

Was refering to todays music not ZZ. At 52 I doubt if I lean toward rap man. I'm a rocker and always will be. I play guitar, bass, mandolin, harmonica and a E flat alto sax, so I may have just a touch of musical ability. And I can spell also.

[@shelliebellie3672]

[@TheTheSkeletalgent]

HOW ABOUT SOME TUBE-SNAKE BOOGEY, EDDIE DEAN OF NEW YORK?

[@lesliemitchellmckinn]

eatest three man band to ever go on stage

[@tbndeereman75]

Gibbons actually revealed what this song is about. As said on the best of zz top album, tube snake is gnarly lingo for a surf board. Don't believe me, look it up, this is from the writer.

[@MrCopenhagen113]

Listen to Blackberry Smoke and tell me that about all new bands...

[@randyrc53]

[@steviebkhall]

[@PFB34534]

[@Toophless1]

[@Speedcuffs100]

Little stubby fingers on the bass... but they move real good :)

[@danpeddicord431]

[@psychedelicsam1]

[@jitsroller]

huh, maybe he was trying to protect ur innocence?

[@splintercell2002]

I wonder what billy said to dusty at 0:12

[@davidkubat1]

not all of the new stuff is crap but bigger half is

[@mtravellerh]

Where are the DOORS in your list?

[@wheelgreen17]

I was born in the wrong era! I would have loved to live in the 70s and 80s instead of the 90s. All I listen to is the oldies. The new stuff is total crap. There's no feeling or meaning to the shit they come out with these days. Steve Miller, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Styx, ZZ Top, Kiss, Kansas, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Bad Company, Billy Idol, Black Sabbath, The Eagles, Foreigner, Heart. I could on forever!

[@AngelusDlion]

@Speedcuffs100 It's not the size that counts.. )

[@yamahonkawazuki]

dire straits as well Eh?

[@ChopsMahone]

quit listening to the radio man

[@whiky88]

That damn sure ain't what this song is about.

[@arthurweers]

It seems todays artists don't have enough brains to come up with complete or meaningful lyrics. They just keep repeating some simple lines over and over accompanied by no-talent people who can do nothing but strum chords.

[@mickpatriot]

or Push 1 for 'Latin" beat 2 for 'rock' 3 for Rap and etc no band pathetic
