ZZ Top - Live At Montreux 2013



Quote:
ZZ Top is an American blues rock band formed in 1969 in Houston, Texas.
The band consists of guitarist and lead vocalist Billy Gibbons, bassist
and co-lead vocalist Dusty Hill, and drummer Frank Beard. The band and
its members went through several reconfigurations throughout 1969,
achieving their current form when Hill replaced bassist Billy Etheridge
in February 1970, shortly before the band was signed to London Records.
Etheridge's departure issued primarily from his unwillingness to be
bound by a recording contract.

Since the release of the band's debut album in January 1971, ZZ Top has
become known for its strong blues roots and humorous lyrical motifs,
relying heavily on double entendres and innuendo. ZZ Top's musical style
has changed over the years, beginning with blues-inspired rock on their
early albums, then incorporating New Wave, punk rock and dance-rock,
with heavy use of synthesizers.

ZZ Top was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004. As a
group, ZZ Top possesses 11 gold records and 7 platinum (13
multi-platinum) records; their 1983 album, Eliminator, remains the
group's most commercially successful record, selling over 10 million
units. ZZ Top also ranks 80th in U.S. album sales, with 25 million
units.

ZZ Top: Live at Montreux (2013)



Blues Rock, Boogie Rock, Hard Rock | Bluray-rip 720p | Audio: English | Subtitles: None | Run time: 91 mins | 8.22 GB

With an unchanged line-up stretching back to 1969 and global album sales in
excess of 50 million, ZZ Top continue to delight fans around the world
with brilliant live concerts and great music. The band has made a number
of visits to Montreux over the years and this concert from the 2013
Festival is undoubtedly one of their finest live performances. The set
list blends tracks from early seventies albums such as Tres Hombres and
Fandango through their eighties blockbuster period with Eliminator and
Afterburner and up to their most recent release and return to their
blues roots with La Futura . The middle section of the concert features a
jazz-blues tribute to the late Montreux Festival founder Claude Nobs
with guest appearances by Mike Flanigin on Hammond Organ and Van Wilks
on guitar. ZZ Top, the lil ol band from Texas , are rocking the blues as
strongly as ever!

Reviews: I just returned from Best Buy and watched this start to finish......
First off, the reason for the 5 star review
excellent video and audio quality (all the more recent Montreux films
are tip top) and at 16 bucks retail ... heck I can't even buy parking at
a concert around here for that price so to have this any time in HD
.... excellent value for money.

While the video run time IS 93 minutes... only 80 minutes is concert.
Eagle Vision does this a lot , they include any and all bonus features
in their run time. There are two light weight interview segments that
take up the rest of the listed "run time". Normally I look for more than
80 minutes, but I think it might have been their full time slot (it is a
pretty excellent 17 song selection including a couple from their
latest). On top of that Billy Gibbons doesn't gobble up a lot of time ,
if any, between songs.... bantering with the audience and that adds a
lot of time to other concerts.

Is this a perfect concert BR? No.... many solos are missed by the camera
men/director , but does it have a lot of great songs? Yes. Does it
feature a pretty excellent performance? Yes. Is the group engaging the
audience? Yes. There is a bit of an annoying plug (excuse the pun) for
Basic Amplifiers ... that keeps illuminating the stage set.... but did I
mention the very tasty guitar tones? I could listen to Billy vamp on a
simple A Chord with that fuzzy distorted sound for hours on end...

Bottom line from an owner. I'm very glad I picked this up.... nice addition to my other ZZ Top DVDs !
