569 - ZZ Top Sharp Dressed Man 1984

1983 was the year ZZ Top went from being everyone's favourite bar-room boogie band to international superstars. Graced with mind-boggling and incredibly photogenic beards, a very neat trilogy of sexy videos and a collective ear for a quite distinct and highly stylised, if somewhat grizzled blues/pop, the sudden enormity of their success seems in retrospect like no real surprise. "Sharp Dressed Man" is a big hit of the band.
