ZZ Top Cover (Nasty Dogs and Funky Kings)

[StephenM]

I doubt it's ever been covered like this...and it was unplanned to do it like this.... but I got bombed after a tough work week and this came out....crazy huh>?

I first heard this song in 11th grade in HS around 1976... I listened to the Fandago album many times... and I liked all of it...but this was especial...I had seen and heard a number of covers of this...and they were great but...none are like this one...lol...

I knocked on your door baby to see if you were home...
the shades were down there wasn't even a sound but something told me you weren't alone
what in the world is a nasty dog supposed to do?  Try and get next to you.

Don't laught cause it ain't funny...look at how it happened to me.  It could happen to you and you could be a fool too
and she'll lieave you in misery.  What in the world is a funky king supposed to do?  Try and get next to you.

this sounds like different interpretations of the song within the song itself... cool..and not metronome this time

Crazy, off the wall goodness! Love the reimagining you did, wouldn't have guess it was a ZZ Top song at all.

[Groundy]

Brilliant Stephen, really like your music, well done... Alex

[Ferryman_1957]

Blimey, where did that come from? Crazeee man, crazeee....... Never heard it done that way before, one helluva trip!

Big ZZ fan here, only really got into them from Deguello but of course then went back to the classics. Which included a saner version of this one! 

[Bluesberry]

totally unhinged....in the right way....and man, do I love unhinged music....if done in the right way.....like something off Big Star's Third album.......stoned immaculate ....love it Steve...love it...happy music....zone music....horizontaly reclined music....the world needs more music like this right now.....

This is great fun! I'll bet it was recording it as well!
I love it when covers are done differently in a person's own unique style.  If I  wanted it the same,  I would just listen to the original,  right?
Anyhow, love it!
