Setting the stage:

I started to “build a record collection” of sorts about 20 years ago. I was motivated to buy vinyl because of a record player I received as a gift. What I quickly found out was that the vinyl records market is very dense and convoluted. Despite my love for music and all of its versatility, I didn’t have much direction. I simply bought what I liked to listen to, and I ended up with a “collection” of original records (i.e. first pressing) and reissues. Some purchases were of new records and some purchases were of used records, but for the last 20 years or so (subject to release date), all of the records I am offering have been in my possession. In total, I’ve accumulated just over 100 records for my “record collection”. Ultimately, these records have been collecting dust sitting on my shelves. I’ve opened and unwrapped some of the records and others are as is. Have I listened to them all? No way. I would estimate I’ve listened to about 25 of the records and some of them even a few times. Any of these records can become part of your collection now. I will be posting them in batches because compiling a discography, cataloging, and photographing all these records has been much more difficult than buying them and enjoying them. By now you can probably tell I’m not very technical with the record jargon. I’ve dedicated an immense amount of time to compiling the most accurate information to provide you about the records I am offering. I believe all of the records are in good condition at a minimum. I purchased them all from reputable record stores and not at garage sales or flea markets. That being said, I am happy to answer questions on the higher dollar items ($50+), I won’t take pictures and fulfill a bunch of random requests for the low dollar items, I just don’t have the bandwidth. In the end, I believe you will be very satisfied with your purchase. Please make sure and check out my other lots, there will certainly be something up your alley. I have priced all the items to reflect their current condition. If you disagree with my assessments please do not make the purchase. All sales items are final and I will not accept returns. Now onto the good stuff…

ZZ Top :

ZZ Top is the Texas-bred trio that brought Southern rock swagger, bluesy grooves, and epic beards into the mainstream. Formed in Houston in 1969, the band features the iconic Billy Gibbons on guitar and vocals, Dusty Hill on bass and vocals, and Frank Beard (the one without the beard!) on drums. Known for their fusion of blues and boogie rock, ZZ Top’s unmistakable sound powered them through decades of success, from roadhouse bars to massive stadiums. With hits like “Sharp Dressed Man,” “Legs,” and “La Grange,” ZZ Top are more than just rock stars—they’re rock icons. Their long careers, matching sunglasses, and fuzzy guitars have made them symbols of cool across generations. They’re members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and, more importantly, they never lost their Texas grit. If you love soulful guitar riffs and foot-stomping grooves, you’re in the right.

Live From Texas :

Live From Texas captures ZZ Top at their peak—onstage, loud, and larger than life. Recorded live at the Nokia Theatre in Dallas, this 2xLP set delivers all the heat and grit of a Texas night, featuring fan favorites like “Tush,” “Cheap Sunglasses,” “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” and “I’m Bad, I’m Nationwide.” The raw energy of Billy Gibbons’ guitar, Dusty Hill’s deep basslines, and Frank Beard’s thundering drums leap from the grooves of this record.
