Probably not a whole lot of ZZ Top listeners here but I grew up loving them. Just a cool fucking band overall and hugely influential. One of the few that never sounded like shit and washed-up in their old age...and who else checks their pockets for a lighter mid-solo:

My friend told me this yesterday but said RIP Dustin Hill and I was like who's that? Then i see later "Dusty Hill" and then kinda bummed out. Never went out of my way to listen to them but the songs I've heard I enjoyed.

Check out "Master Of Sparks" or "Precious & Grace" from their Tres Hombres album. I love most of the albums but those two are my favorite. There's a cool sparseness and atmosphere to that album, fits them being from Texas.
