ZZ Top

In 2010, ZZ Top was experiencing a resurgence in popularity, having remained influential in the rock scene since their formation in the early 1970s. Prior to the live recording at the Crossroads Guitar Festival, the band released their most recent studio album, "Recycler," in 1990, which showcased their continued commitment to their blues-infused rock sound. By the time of this performance, ZZ Top was not only revered for their classic hits but also for their iconic stage presence and signature looks, particularly the long beards of frontman Billy Gibbons and bassist Dusty Hill. Their performance of "Waitin' for the Bus" and "Jesus Just Left Chicago" at this festival further solidified their legacy as one of the quintessential live acts in rock music, demonstrating their tight musicianship and the timelessness of their music, even two decades after they achieved mainstream success.
