Short intro

Tejas is the fifth studio album by the American rock band ZZ Top. It was released in late November 1976. The title is a Caddo language word meaning 'friends', which is the origin of the name of the band's home state, Texas. Frontman Billy Gibbons said about the album: It's fair to say that this is a transitional record, although I'm not really sure what we were transitioning from and what we were becoming. laughs It may be representative of how rapidly things were changing in the studio. Tejas - ZZ Top. Лента с персональными рекомендациями и музыкальными новинками, радио, подборки на любой вкус, удобное управление своей коллекцией. That little ole band from Texas. The song Ten Dollar Man is from ZZ Top 1976 record album Tejas. Song lyrics in description below. Billy Gibbons, Dusty is the fifth album by American blues-rock band ZZ Top, released in 1977, although in London Records catalogue it was originally marked under 1976. The title is the modern Spanish word for Texas, the home state of ZZ Top. In 1987, this album was remixed for CD release. The full album is currently unavailable on CD in its original mix though tracks 1, 2, 3, 5, 9 and 10 are available in their original mix on 2003's Chrome, Smoke & BBQ boxset.

Tejas, ZZ Top countrified the bluesy posture of their previous albums, resulting in a slight detour between the madcap spirit of Fandango and the psychedelic strut of Deguello. While the album lacks any singles as strong as Tush or La Grange, Arrested for Driving While Blind is one of ZZ's classic anthems, capturing the group's wacky humor and jaunty good-time boogie. Other highlights include the driving Enjoy and Get It On, Avalon Hideaway, and the fine instrumental Asleep in the Desert. ZZ Top kept the pedal to the metal for most of the early '70s, churning out album after album and touring relentlessly across the country behind a string of popular songs like La Grange and Tush. Released in November 1976, ZZ's fifth LP revealed a mellower, almost country-flavored side to the normally gritty blues rockers. On tunes like It's Only Love and El Diablo, Gibbons' guitar had about as much sweetness as it had bite on She's a Heartbreaker, somebody whipped out a fiddle and accordion, and on the instrumental Asleep in the Desert, it was Spanish guitars.
