Sad news indeed, bet he had a really interesting life after spending all those decades in such an iconic band.
RIP Dusty

Always made me chuckle was the fact that the drummer who didn't have a long bushy beard like the other two was called Frank....... Beard

And on top of the great music, their videos were total masterpieces too. Loved their deadpan delivery when they took part, for instance when playing fluffy white guitars that windmilled around in sync. Now THAT's class

May Dusty Hill rest in peace. I first got into ZZ Top with the music video to "Gimme All Your Lovin'" from 1983, so my Dad bought that song's album Eliminator! ZZ Top - Gimme All Your Lovin' (#37 AT40 1983) ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man (#56 Pop 1983) ZZ Top - Legs (#8 AT40 1984, #68 A T40's year-end)

Also enjoyed watching their appearance as an old west band in Back to the Future Part III on the big screen sometime around Memorial Day 1990! ZZ Top - Doubleback (#50 Pop 1990)
