ZZ Top - RAW ('That Little Ol' Band From Texas' Original Soundtrack) - This sturdy American blues-rock trio from Texas was formed in 1970 in and around Houston from rival bands. Their first two albums reflected the strong blues roots and Texas humor of the band. Their success continued unabated throughout the '70s, culminating with the year-and-a-half-long Worldwide Texas Tour.

ZZ Top had reached the top of the charts before, but that didn't make their sudden popularity in 1983 any more predictable. It wasn't that they were just popular -- they were hip, for God's sake, since they were one of the only AOR favorites to figure out to harness the stylish, synthesized grooves of new wave. Pressed on opaque red vinyl.

RIO GRANDE MUD is the second album by American blues-rock band ZZ Top, released in 1972. By this release, ZZ Top was honing the tough blues rock hybrid that would make it a certified U.S. arena headliner by the mid-seventies. While the album didn't spawn the big radio hits of it's later releases, RIO GRANDE MUD was another incredibly consistent and inspired ZZ Top classic.

Hot Rats cemented Frank Zappa as a musical force to be reckoned with. The album, recorded on a prototype 16-track recorder, sounds as fresh & sonically superior on this 180 gram audiophile edition as it did when first released in 1969. Blending rock and jazz stylings with top call studio musicians, it opened the door to 'Fusion Music' while putting FZ on the guitar player map. Captain Beefheart makes a special guest appearance. It truly is a 'Movie For Your Ears.'

2013 vinyl LP reissue. Musically wrought with Zappa's identifiable touch, this gatefold reissue of the 1973 classic LP gathers up 7 FZ classics that managed to bring a first gold album into his stash. Accompanied by "the Mothers," Frank jackhammered his way through boundary-pushing lyrics, funky rhythms, heavy rock guitar, implied messages of male stupidity, and as always, attacks at social consciousness and political correctness tucked in between. Never one to miss an opportunity to vent through his music, Zappa excels in "Camarillo Brillo," "I'm the Slime," "Dirty Love," "Fifty-Fifty." Zomby Woof," "Dinah-Moe Humm" and "Montana." Catch Tina Turner and the Ikettes with some uncredited backup vocals in the last cut.

Freak Out! Is the debut album by American band the Mothers of Invention, released June 27, 1966 on Verve Records. Often cited as one of rock music's first concept albums, the album is a satirical expression of front man Frank Zappa's perception of American pop culture. It was also one of the earliest double albums in rock music (although Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde preceded it by a week), and the first 2-record debut. Mothers of Invention changed from an R&B covers band to performing Zappa's original material when he joined the group. Freak Out! Contains a range of musical styles from R&B, doo wop, and blues-influenced rock to orchestral arrangements and avant-garde sounds. In 1999, the album was honored with the Grammy Hall of Fame Award, and in 2003, Rolling Stone ranked it among the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. "A master guitarist and provocateur, Frank Zappa made more than 60 albums, but the first was perhaps the most groundbreaking. The double disc declared the arrival of a visionary weirdo who dabbled in doo-wop, pop-song parody, protest tunes, art rock and avant-garde classical. " - Rollingstone This double 180 gram vinyl pressing was mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman mastering..
