ZZ TOP- Fandango 50th- Billy Gibbons, Frank Beard 4-14

The follow up to ZZ Top’s breakthrough album Tres Hombres was a hybrid of one side recorded live and another side of new studio recordings in April 1975 entitled Fandango. Besides establishing a long series of ZZ Top albums named en Espanol, Fandango also contained perennial favorites “Tush”, “Heard It on the X”, “Nasty Dogs and Funky Kings”, and the midnight blues burner “Blue Jean Blues”.
