Dusty Hill, ZZ Top Bassist, Dead at 72

[CouchCoach]

If you get the chance, watch the ZZ Top docs on Netflix.

Truly, they were Tres Hombres and no one member more important than the other.

The MTV flags should be at half mast today as they helped create that.

I saw them the first time in 1971 and at least a dozen times since then and they never failed to be excellent.

A sad day, indeed.

 

[Khartun]

Oh man, that is depressing. They were one of the first concerts I ever saw. Love ZZ!

RIP!

 

[Montanalo]

I saw them live at the Armadillo World and was an immediate and long-term fan. Sad day.

 

[Hardline]

That makes two of my favorite musicians to go in less than a week.

 

[Runwildboys]

Well that sucks, but at least he had a decent run, and got some years under his belt.......A 3 man band never sounded so good..... R.I.P. to 1 of 3.

 

[Cowpolk]

That sucks wanted to see them live 1 more time RIP Dusty you will be missed

 

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

That's a hard blow to the groin. Gonna listen to Just Got Back from Baby's right now.

I may find out if my neighbors like ZZ TOP I know they are hearing Rio Grande Mud right now

 

[JIMMYBUFFETT]

If you guys haven't seen That Little Ol' Band From Texas on Netflix I suggest it.

RIP sir….

He used to come into a restaurant that I bartended back in College, about twice a week(when not on the road) and always asked for me to serve him. I got to know him well, even gave me a 24K gold ZZ emblem to put on a chain.

Here is one more 7&7 for you

 

[DanteEXT]

Not the biggest fan but I did enjoy what I have heard. Actually they were my first concert. Don't remember the year just that the Black Crowes were the opening act.

Man....

One of the best trios you will ever hear throw down the blues. Good old Dusty, the bottom to the Top. He and Billy were awesome together. RIP, Mr. Hill and thank you for the great music.

I saw ZZ Top headline at the Memorial Stadium in Austin in front of 80,000 fans in 1974. It was a concert I'll never forget.
