ZZ Top - "Antenna"
I bought this album back when it came out in 1994. It, like many other albums from this time, was part of my BMG collection. I got it largely because I liked most of the ZZ Top songs I had heard up to this point. I can't remember why I just didn't buy one of those earlier albums. Maybe BMG didn't have it available. I never really listened to this album much, and it's probably been a decade since I last listened to it. I've been missing out. They didn't have any hits off the album, and a few of the songs, such as "Fuzzbox Voodoo" sound like they belong to an earlier decade, but the album is solid. The legendary fuzz tone of the guitar alone makes the album worth a listen. I will probably be listening to this one on a more regular basis now. You can preview it on Amazon but the compression algorithm just kills the guitar tone so you're not going to hear it the way it really sounds. You'll have to trust me that the cd, played on a good system, will make you wish you played a big fuzzy guitar.
