Product Description

CD Description
ELIMINATOR, with its churning guitars and synthesizer hooks, was on the album charts for over a year, and had hits with"Sharp Dressed Man", "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and "Legs". The album and its accompanying videos were ubiquitous in 1983,on television ZZ Top was seen on MTV, "St. Elsewhere", evenon the Tonight show.
1983 was the year Z.Z. Top went from being everyone's favourite bar-room boogie band to international superstars. Graced with mind-boggling and incredibly photogenic beards, a very neat trilogy of sexy videos and a collective ear for a quite distinct and highly stylised, if somewhat grizzled blues/pop, the sudden enormity of their success seems in retrospect like no real surprise. MTV had never quite seen the like and the attention given to the excellent 'Gimme All Your Lovin'' single was quickly repeated for both 'Sharp-Dressed Man' and the quite irreverent 'Legs'. Itstill sounds fresh, innovative and fun today. in the wake of many imitators.

4.0 out of 5 stars "The one without the beard is called beard" ZZzzzzzzzz, 17 Nov 2005
By M. J. Dyer "Marky Spark" (Accrington UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well what can I say...Brilliant album from the great Texan's themselves. It will always be floating around every Auction site from Amazon to Ebid. Everyone should own a copy and listen to it regular. Power chords at their best and all great songs. If you don't own it....you should.

5.0 out of 5 stars ZZ - TOP...........turn up the grooves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 12 May 2007
By Carl Michael Fredrick (Canada, Commonwealth of the U.K) - See all my reviews
These songs alone would have made Eliminator one of ZZ Top's three greatest albums,their embrace of Rock-synths and sequencers make this a blockbuster filled with hits & pure Energy.It's still an excellent ZZ Top album,whether Fans or blues purists alike believe it or not,definitely one of their best,thanks in part to their unflaggingly accurate grooves & timing.Then again, that's part of the album's charm,this is new wave blues-rock,looking as good as the omnipresent convertible on the cover,not really the sort of old-school album blues-rock purists will love or appreciate,But one heck of a fun groove-licious album to rock your sound system to

5.0 out of 5 stars Boogie - with 3 Beards ! ! !, 18 Jul 2000
By David Cranson (Hereford, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
ZZ Top's previous albums had been eclectic to say the least, but always with that down south ingredient. Deguelo (short & classy) & El Loco (short & patchy) didn't really give notice of what was to come. What was to come was this - a world-wide breakthrough of stunning proportions and songs of any young man's dream. Legs, Got Me Under Pressure, Sharp Dressed Man, Gimme All Your Lovin' & If I Could Only Flag Her Down. These were offset with the soulful blues of I Need You Tonight - giving air to the truth that despite all the flashiness, these men still needed a woman's company - and boy, do we agree with that sentiment. Still the boyishness of it all was given full reign in the closer Bad Girl - a cry of despair, but with some wishful thinking thrown in for good measure. A classic album still to play air guitar to. Play it loud - it won't upset the neighbours(!) . . . Brilliant!
