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 Hombre' 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! |
