TV Dinners

I kind of like to forget that ZZ Top ever made this song, but I saw this video posted recently on Grantland's worst music videos of all-time story and had to at least post the video in here as well. With some crazy 80's style computer generated graphics check out the bearded boys with "TV Dinners"...

Slip Inside My Sleeping Bag

It's everyone's favorite beards back again today as the car in the video takes flight at the end. And as always, there are three hot chicks to the rescue. Surprisingly this is the band's highest charting single on the Billboard charts. It's the Houston, Texas band ZZ Top with "Sleeping Bag"...
