Love ZZ Top Andre. Awesome guitar playing and really enjoyed the raw ‘growling’ vocals. Your vocals definitely suit the song on this one. Yes, Vale Frank! 😎🎸🤘🎸😎

An excellent performance, full of emotion.

Cool Andrè. I thought the vocals were perfect. RIP Frank Beard.

You got an ‘earthy growl’ Andre-love it. If we were neighbors there would be some problems-lol. Great tribute. I discovered ZZ Top in 1974(ish). What a powerful rock/blues trio. I remember too when they, Skynyrd, Charlie, Daniels and whomever else highlighted the Volunteer Jam every year in Tennessee-which gave birth to the era of STADIUM ROCK. I still have a copy of Tres Hombres. Their first album is really a gem. Such great players/brothers. They really evolved and were a true family together.

Sad to see him go. Those old classic rockers are becoming kind of scarce lately. Who will be the last one standing? Mic Jagger? Cher?

I thought from the thumbnail, this was Frank playing drums or something. Now I see it was an Andre cover tune. Very cool playing on this one.

Root note patterns >>> CAGED shapes >>> TRIAD'S. Just put in the work and watch your guitar skills soar.

Nice slide work on this one, Andre.
Regarding the lyrics.
Now we know why your wife won’t let you go downtown! 😀
