Whilst this cd is not a patch on the ZZ Top of Eliminator and earlier, you've got to admire them for not churning out more of the same fuzzy dirty blues. These guys have always had their tongues firmly in their cheeks, and this record is no different. There are no ready made anthems here, but fans will find much to like. The groove is clearly present and correct on all of the tracks, the live cuts are stunning - hard to believe that there's only three of them. This cd is probably one of the hardest ZZ Top albums to find these days, so was suprised that it was available for less than a fiver, as hmv were asking for fifteen quid not so long ago. This is not the place to start your ZZ Top collection, (that's Tres Hombres), but is a welcome addition for collectors and completists alike.
