Friday fun plucking on the three string shovel

ZZ Top fan recreates the ‘Tres Hombres’ gatefold meal and then eats it.

from Dangerous Minds

 
It’s "arguably" the greatest LP gatefold image of all time: the drool-inducing food porn Mexican spread from the inner fold of ZZ Top’s 1973 Tres Hombres album. Only Coven’s Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reap Souls comes close to matching it’s exemplary use of the medium, but as far as gatefold images go, it’s hard to top THE TOP.

In what is destined to be the the greatest short film of 2016, Austin chef Thomas Micklethwait lovingly re-creates this enviable meal and proceeds to eat the shit out of it.

As someone who has often dreamt of being at that fabled table, all I can say is kudos to the chef for allowing me to live vicariously through him and yet not have to experience the following day’s Afterburner tribute.

Fans of ZZ Top or grande burritos, take note:

 

A Couple of Songs to Wake You The Fuck Up

One New One Old - both killin' it!

First let's go with the present. Atari Teen Age Riot has released the 2nd edit of their fan based video mash-up re-mix, "Black Flags" this version of the song is timely and features Boots Riley throwing down some extra vocals. DOPE!




The old is from The Sonics, I've heard the songs before but never until recently knew who these bad ass motherfuckers were. This song is from 1965, dig it!
