ZZ Top took an extended break from the tour trail and the recording studio after wrapping up the tour for its 1976 album, TEJAS. DEGUELLO (Spanish for 'beheading') was issued three years later, and continued the Texas trio's winning streak.

Most ZZ Top fans consider DEGUELLO to be the last link to the band's characteristic early blues-rock; it moved to a more accessible sound with its '80s releases EL LOCO, ELIMINATOR, and AFTERBURNER. Ending the '70s on a high note for the band, DEGUELLO includes a pair of the group's biggest classic rock staples--the funky "Cheap Sunglasses," and the anthemic "I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide."

1979 Classic With 'Cheap Sunglasses' & 'I Thank You'. Currently Out Of Print In The USA.

ZZ Top: Billy Gibbons (vocals, guitar, baritone saxophone); Dusty Hill (vocals, tenor saxophone, bass); Frank Beard (alto saxophone, drums, percussion).

Personnel: Billy Gibbons (vocals, guitar); Dusty Hill (vocals); Frank Beard (drums).

5 stars Texan blues and rock at its best!
This is the ultimate ZZ Top album for blues and rock experience; you really can't get better than this! From the funky sounds of "Cheap sunglasses" through to ZZ's rendition of Elmore James's classic "Dust my blues", this album gives blues-rock fans exactly what they want to hear. An all time classic album!

5 stars Essential
This is the album that defines ZZ Top AND Texas blues IMO. You can't possibly call yourself a ZZ Top fan without a copy of Deguello. I never get bored with a single cut on this album!

5 stars Better than the rest - a Classic!
When I first heard this LP back in '79, I was blown away by each song from beginning to end. I played it constantly and became interested in other blues musicians because of my exposure to it. Even today this album remains a benchmark for rock & blues. I knew that a live performance of this could only improve an already fantastic release. The band came to Pine Knob outdoor concert theater (Clarkson, MI) in August 1980. The Outlaws performed an excellent set, but when ZZ Top came onstage their live performance greatly overshadowed them. After the show my friends and I knew that ZZ Top was destined for even greater success.
