action Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 so I don't hear much talk about this band. but they've got some cracking licks in their repertoire. but those beards lol, are they a joke band or something? these guys don't seem to age. I remeber seeing them on television 30 years ago and thinking these guys must be 100 years old with their long beards. And here we are and they're still rocking away lol. And with an unchanged lineup no less, what's up with that. Curious band this one. Any great albums by them that I should look into? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 The synthesizer, fuzzy spinning guitars, simplistic songs. I think they are seen as gimmicky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
action Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 I find their use of double stops very inspiring, as a guitar player. that's the way I started playing, to play something different than single notes. double stops add a little "crunch" and soon you're rocking away. Now I learn, ZZTop made a career out of such playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
