Description
ZZ Top, the "little ol' band from Texas", has enjoyed enormous success on a global scale since their breakthrough in the early seventies and then their groundbreaking albums in the mid-eighties. Now for the first time one of ZZ Top's legendary live performances has been filmed for simultaneous release on DVD & Blu-ray. The track listing spans their career from early tracks such as "Waitin' For The Bus", "Just Got Paid" and the classic "La Grange", through their eighties blockbusters including "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and "Legs" (complete with furry guitars!) and up to more recent hits like "Pin Cushion". Filmed in their home state of Texas in front of a wildly enthusiastic audience, this DVD & Blu-ray captures ZZ Top at their very best.

2 out of 5 stars Good show, poor audio   December 16, 2008
PJ Huizinga (Rotterdam, Holland)
I was very disappointed with the sound quality of the bluray dvd. At almost twice the price of the sd dvd, I had higher expectations. Call me old fashioned.
Flat, uninteresting, no balls, no dynamics, no definition, just a wall-of-sound, no nuances, not exciting, does not grab you, transistor radio quality. One can't help wondering why go through all the HD producing trouble just to put out this very mediocre disc.
I feel robbed in daylight.

After watching the awful YES blu-ray this one is even worse. First these guys are really old. The singers have no voice and the drumming has no power at all. The drummer is barely touching the cymbals. Next up the RUSH blu-ray. Hopefully a trend doesn't develop.

Excellent song selections for the DVD, but the music itself has none of the energy and excitement that ZZ Top used to bring to bear. The boys are old and they even move like they need something for their arthritis.
