Default ZZ Top Bassist Dusty Hill passes away at 72

ZZ Top bassist Dusty Hill passed away at his home in Houston, Texas. Band members Frank Beard and Billy Gibbons Posted on Facebook today.



Quote : The band announced Hill’s death on their official Facebook page, writing "We are saddened by the news today that our Compadre, Dusty Hill, has passed away in his sleep at home in Houston, TX. We, along with legions of ZZ Top fans around the world, will miss your steadfast presence, your good nature and enduring commitment to providing that monumental bottom to the ‘Top'. We will forever be connected to that "Blues Shuffle in C. You will be missed greatly, amigo. Frank & Billy”

This song seems to be sadly appropriate given the relationship of drummer Frank Beard, Lead guitarist Billy Gibbons and of course bassist, Dusty hill. ZZ Top lead guitarist Billy Gibbons joins Daryl Hall on this tune.


This is love you like a brother.





Thanks Dusty for stopping by and leaving us with some great music.

I never knew he'd been the bassist for over fifty years

RIP Sir
