Re: What was so great about Jesus?
Ok I went ahead and listened to the whole thing instead of cutting it off early to make sure there wasn't going to be something I missed but I totally disagree. At least in terms of what sounds good to me. Not that it was awful. But through most of the song you would not have even recognized the song as "Just Got Paid" and then there was the thing where he morphed into Led Zeppelin's "Dazed and Confused." Totally different style than Gibbons to me but to me it doesn't sound as good. I know some people may like it better but not me. To me listening to ZZ Top playing "Just Got Paid" is a lot better than that was. Just WAY more real and gritty. Plus it's a "slide guitar" song and that guy didn't do any slide guitar at all. That guy missed the entire character of the song. It was like listening to Donnie Osmond do Black Sabbath.travelinman67 wrote:ZZ Top...Gibbons wrote one of my top 10 faves of all time...but Joe Bonamassa covers it better than Gibbons...

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Re: What was so great about Jesus?
Joe is a great technician, better chops than BG, but his playing doesn't raise the hair on the back of your neck, thats a "feel" thing which BG has more of. When I've seen ZZ Top, five times, its the drummer that impresses me the most, every time.JohnStOnge wrote:Ok I went ahead and listened to the whole thing instead of cutting it off early to make sure there wasn't going to be something I missed but I totally disagree.

I'm disagreeing with your idea of which version of the song is better
ZZ Tops original version is far more enjoyable to me

No electric guitar player should be allowed to solo until he has listened 1,000 times each to Green Onions and Sympathy for the Devil
