ZZ Top has just issued a video trailer to promote its newly-released greatest hits package, “The Very Baddest Of ZZ Top.”
Available as standard and double-disc sets, the compilation features material from the band’s entire catalog, marking the first time that’s happened in a single project.
ZZ Top recorded for three different labels throughout the years, including London Records (1971-76), Warner Brothers Records (1979-1990), and RCA Records (1994-2003); their latest release, 2012’s “La Futura”, was issued by American Recordings.
“We’re glad that material originally issued by three different labels over the course of all these years will now be housed under one ‘roof,’ so to speak,” said guitarist Billy Gibbons. “It’s kind of a big, bad family reunion on some level.”
ZZ Top are currently playing shows on a summer US tour with Jeff Beck.
