The influential sounds of this blues-rock trio came from the lead vocals and guitar riffs of Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill’s bass guitar and back-up vocals and finally, the steady beat of Frank Beard’s drums. Going back to their early sound and making a case for the extreme impact they have had on other artists, you get 10 classic ZZ Top songs in their fifteenth album entitled “La Futura.” Now pressed onto two 180-gram vinyl 45 RPM discs, you get “I Gotsta Get Paid,” “Chartreuse,” “Consumption,” “I Don’t Wanna Lose, Lose You,” “It’s Too Easy Manana,” “Over You,” “Have a Little Mercy” and more.
