My favorite ZZ Top album, been listening to them since 1971.

[jaivkoltun]

Coolest song, so good, love the edgy instrumental chords in the solos, the running drums, and the vox !!! . . Stunning. . .

[dmlevitt]

this album sounded best blasting from pioneer speakers in the back of 1978 Dodge 
Charger on 8 track tape. their best LP.

[randycunningham]

The first 6 ZZ Top vinyls are among the best of the best that you'll ever hear in music.

There was a Man who played Bass from The Great State of Texas who was
Badder than Shaft, Superfly, Kung Fu and James Bond all rolled
together....RIP, Dusty

[HeadHondo]

This album has the best drum sounds ever recorded

Driving thru the Arizona desert listening to this.

[GabAssbreaker]

the drumming at the end of this song is incredible.

[psysurfermind]

In the final part of this song, the continous guitar riff and the rarefy drumming bring you in a dream's land...

I remember driving at night a few years ago and hearing El Diablo for the first time on the radio. It was on 88.5 WXPN, probably the most reputable radio station here in Philadelphia, and it was the vinyl mix. That night, I learned a very valuable lesson about vinyl vs. digital mixes.

I love everything up to Eliminator, but Tejas is my favorite. Played the hell out of this and learned every lick and lyric on this album.

I remember my dad bought this Album back in 1976, were in Madrid, and I would stare at the album's cover for hours getting home sick

[markblue]

Yes the vinyl version 👍
Love how Frank's drumming tempo picks up throughout the tune ! ( lost on re - mastered version ) 🏜

[mikelinneman]
