NotesVinyl LP pressing. With their 1973 album Tres Hombres ZZ Top achieved their well-deserved breakthrough in the USA. Their success in Europe is mainly accredited to their brilliant live album Live in Germany 1980. During their performance as part of the Rockpalast Night in the Essen Grugahalle, they played classics from their 1979 album Degüello ("I Thank You," "Cheap Sunglasses") as well as hits from the Gold-certified Tres Hombres ("La Grange," "Waitin' for the Bus," "Jesus Just Left Chicago"). An absolute rarity on vinyl, Live in Germany 1980 does a great job of displaying the best of ZZ Top's pre-Eliminator material in a concert setting as the trio manages to bring their hits to life in an even more explosive way.

  • Worth it but not quite right

    First off, this was a great show captured here, with most of their pre-Eliminator era material. Packaging is good, and great sound quality. No skips picked up, at least on mine. Now for the bad, this was clearly mastered and cut by two different engineers who either never met, or hated each other. Record one is pressed and mastered at 45rpm, while record 2 is pressed and mastered for 33rpm, yet nothing is labeled on either. It's still a good value, if priced right. Being this is the entire mastering, not a flaw, you can bet the entire pressing run is like this. So, if y'all want one, just wait a bit and price will drop.

  • ZZ Top studio albums are great but not Live

    Poor production. Drums take over above all guitars and this ends up sounding like a 45 minute drum solo. Gimmick 45 rpm just to add 2nd disc. Vocals are plain. Must have recorded on an off night. I saw them in concert and the sound and performance was fantastic. This album is so disappointing. Not likely to listen a 2nd time.

  • Great album, a muxt-have for any ZZTop music afficionado.

    ZZTop in Germany.LP is an awesome, historical tour record which made ZZTop a household name in Germany and Europe and propelled them the world superstardom as one of the best-known American Southern Blues/Rock bands world ever seen. .Not too bad for a small band of three talented musicians, previously known only to in their local area of Houston, Texas!
