 The Best of The Best!
What more can be added here? It is simply the best of the best. Buy it and rock on dudes/dudettes. I rest my case.

 ZZ TOP Lays It Down with "Tres Hombres"
In retrospect, this album is what ZZ TOP will always be: a supernatural blues delight. From blistering scorched-earth rampages such as "Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers," the angelic epiphany "Hot, Blue and Righteous," and the tight-every-night "La Grange" (an homage to the boogie man himself, John Lee Hooker), this Texas trio surgically strikes at what most like-genre bands can only feign. This little ol' album is simply soul-quenching. Billy Gibbons' guitar work is not some chop-happy hacking; the Reverend Willy G. testifies! And supporting cast Dusty Hill (bass, vocals) and Frank Beard (tight-than-tight drums) prove to be the perfect canvas for Billy's creative tonal extravaganza. Even in this early period, ZZ TOP ventures the Congo to Cuba 3 decades before "Dreadmonboogaloo" became art. So, if you're out cruisin' late one night, and you need a supernatural delight, give this deserved disc another spin... Give yourself a listen to the "Master of Sparks" on high... It'll be an experience you'll never forget. Note: get the vinyl... -First Stone Productions, 2003

 The sound here is REMIXED!!!
Warner bros. and the band remixed this holly album maybe in 1978 or something,but, you can find the compleate original sound only in the old vinyl albums or just a few tracks of the album with the original sound in the CD" The best of ZZ TOP" 10 Legendary Texas Tales.-Alex.
