British pop duo formed by George
Michael and Andrew Ridgeley. The band first gained wide attention with their "Tres Hombres" album, which contained the classic song "La Grange", referencing the same bordello that is the subject of "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas." They reached new heights of popularity with the 1983 album Eliminator, boosted to prominence by music videos for the tracks "Gimme All Your Lovin'", "Legs" and "Sharp Dressed Man" each of which featured a small bright red coupe called The Eliminator (http://www.lowpft.com/FIVE.GIF) and a mysterious trio of beautiful women who travel around helping various people in the videos. (Frank Beard, interestingly, does not wear a beard.) In 1984, the Gillette company offered Gibbons and Hill $1 million apiece to shave their beards for a commercial, but they declined. Gibbons and Hill are always pictured wearing sunglasses, trenchcoats and their trademark waist-length beards. As well as a distinctive guitar sound and hard-driving, innuendo-laced lyrics (many of which are about places and events in their home state of Texas), the band is probably best known for its distinctive look. The band members are Billy Gibbons (vocals and guitar, of Moving Sidewalks), Dusty Hill (bass, of The American Blues) and Frank Beard (drums, of The Cellar Dwellers, The Hustlers, and The American Blues). ZZ Top is a rock band, most prominent in the 1970s and 1980s, from Houston, Texas. In a national phone-in poll conducted during the broadcast, the band won by a significant margin. In a 1984 episode of Saturday Night Live, Father Guido Sarducci "nominated" ZZ Top for the Democratic presidential primary. ZZ Top is a sponsor of the Delta Blues Museum. The band appeared in the film Back to the Future Part III. This brothel is also the subject of the film The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas starring Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds. The real name of the brothel is "Gracie's Chicken Farm". "La Grange" is a song about a brothel. He fully recovered. In December 1984, Dusty Hill accidentally set off a derringer he kept in his boot and shot himself in the stomach. In 2002, he made that title official and was ordained so he could perform a Dallas wedding. Billy Gibbons has often been referred to as The Reverend Willy G. Sorry, no release date yet.).
