\"ZZ<\/a>So has the braiding of College Intermission, The Rise & Fall Of ’84, <\/em> and The Metal Years<\/em> been OK to follow? Do you see why I think it is important to represent them as three simultaneously occuring but yet separate threads? I guess it could have been less emotional and more chronological. I’m just giving it to you as I have always had it organized in my mind. For better or worse, there it is.<\/p>\n

ZZ Top’s Eliminator<\/em> is one of those albums that I nearly forgot. When it was released, I was still a senior at the Academy.\u00a0 Im pretty sure that I bought this in the fall of ’83. I probably should have mentioned it earlier but thruth I forgot about it.<\/p>\n

Eliminator had a bunch of songs that were getting attention on the radio and MTV. That’s how I found out about them. The songs were good enough and I still play Sharp Dressed Man <\/em> on my bass. I think I just never was too much of a ZZ Top<\/em> fan. Maybe it’s the beards.<\/p>\n

\n

I don’t know. For whatever reason, I never felt compelled to upgrade my Eliminator <\/em>record to CD. A few years ago, I picked up a ZZ Top Greatest Hits <\/em>compilation and that semes to be all I need.<\/p>\n
