ZZ Top / MO, USA 03.08.1980 Soundboard Edition

This recording captures a live performance in Kansas City on March 8th, 1980, from their North American tour following the release of “DEGUELLO,” using a soundboard recording recently made public by its owner. This newly unearthed soundboard recording is a direct transfer from the tape recorded directly from the mixing console at the venue. While the opening and ending fade in and out, it includes all the songs from the day’s setlist, resulting in an incredibly raw and realistic sound. The setlist features all nine songs from the album except “Esther Be the One,” along with a string of other representative numbers from the 70s, truly representative of this tour.
