First spin of the day “Tres Hombres” by ZZ Top.

They didn't have money for a studio. It was recorded in a garage in Tyler Texas on a mixing board built by a 14 year old kid. His mother shared the "studio" with her son. She had a cable TV cooking show. "Cooking with Mrs 'B" Robin Hood Brians. The La Grange was an out-take. They were goofing around

The inside cover photo. Leo's Mexican restaurant on Shepherd. (Houston). I met Leo. They had a calendar they sold with a picture of Leo with Pancho Villa. Had a waiter who was an Elvis impersonator (rhinestone karate era) ZZ Top used to play for food there. It was a menu item. Deluxe Mexican plate

Superb album for sure 👍 and what a killer recording too. Sounds amazing and punchy on a good system.

Given it was recorded in 1973, it hasn't aged a bit!

No messing no gimmicks, just guitar bass and drums. When 'La Grange' fully kicks in I just have to turn it up 🎸

The transition from ‘Waitin’ on the Bus’ to ‘Jesus Just Left Chicago’ gets me every time! 🙌🏻💯🙌🏻
