Eh it's ZZ Top. It's a 1973 release. If you grew up as a teenager in the 80's, who didn't love ZZ Top? La Grange hit #41 on the charts but overall the album hit a high of #8. Not much to say it's typical.
Grade: B
Kiss - Destroyer
I was excited to see this listed, disappointed it's so low on the charts though. This is their 4th release from 1976, right when I was discovering music, although I don't believe I heard or realized Kiss until high school, sad I know. The album ranked #11 on the Billboards. It struggled actually until the stations started playing the B side of Detroit Rock City which was Beth. Interesting enough, they tried some different things with this album, like a childrens choir and interpretation of a Beethoven piece, the NY Philharmonic Symphomy Ochestra and reversed drums (on God of Thunder - which was not one of my fav's) 4 good hits of this one - I suggest listening to Beth of course, Shout it Out Loud and Detroit Rock City if you don't know them.
Grade: B+
