Time to shift gears and add a little ROCK to the afternoon... In perusing songs to post I came across this video... I remembered the group's name, but not the song or the style of the group...
It has been reported that this is genre of songs they play: Blues Rock, Boogie Rock, Hard Rock, Southern Rock. They are just a rockin' group!
Here is a short background Bio:
ZZ Top (pronounced "zee zee top") is an American rock band formed in Houston, Texas, in 1969. The group consists of founder Billy Gibbons (guitar, lead vocals), Dusty Hill (bass, vocals), and Frank Beard (drums, percussion). Initially rooted in blues, ZZ Top's style has evolved throughout their career, with a signature sound based on Gibbons' blues guitar style and Hill and Beard's rhythm section. Their lyrics, often embellished with sexual innuendo, focus on their Texas roots and humor. Popular for their live performances, the group has staged several elaborate tours.
ZZ Top has released 15 studio albums and sold an estimated 50 million albums worldwide. They have won three MTV Video Music Awards, and in 2004, they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Rolling Stone ranked Gibbons number 32 on its list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time". Throughout their career, as a band and as individuals, they have supported several campaigns and charities, including Childline, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and a fundraiser for the Delta Blues Museum.
LYRICS:
"Sharp Dressed Man"
Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie
I don't need a reason why
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Gold watch, diamond ring
I ain't missin' not a single thing
And cuff links, stick pin
When I step out I'm gonna do you in
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Top coat, top hat
I don't worry 'cause my wallet's fat
Black shades, white gloves
Lookin' sharp and lookin' for love
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
Writer(s): Billy F Gibbons, Frank Lee Beard, Joe Michael Hill
I hope you enjoy it!
