Great videos, though.  I have a couple of them on computer.  Plus they have some funny titled songs: "TV Dinners"

"TV Dinners" is an awesome video (even though those groovy ZZ Top Girls aren't in it). The song really rocks, & it has that really weird green creature lurking in a TV Dinner!   8)

I thought the ZZ Top girls were the guy's wives?  Maybe I heard wrong.   ???

Great videos, though.  I have a couple of them on computer.  Plus they have some funny titled songs: "TV Dinners", "Tube Steak Boogie"  ;D and "Pearl Necklace"  ;D

Oh my.  I gotta get a monitor with a de-fogger on it.  It gets a bit steamed up.  ;)

Maybe because that is EXACTLY what the songs were about  :P

And don't forget TUSH

Yeah.. I guess we should be questioning the thinking of band members consisting of old men in trenchcoats, beards and sunglasses!  :D

I can tell you that in the "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and Sharp Dressed Man" videos, the girl with the long blonde hair was Kim Herrin (?spelling). She and the girl with the darker bonde hair were former PLayboy playmates. I wish I could remember her name too. The other girl with lighter blonde hair I never found out who she was. Good luck!!

Don't forget their early classic "La Grange", a thinly-veiled hommage to the "Chicken Shack" bordello in La Grange, Texas.

It seems that the ZZ Top boys have a one-track mind.  

...But even though you kinda knew what they were singing about, the lyrics were not vulgar or explicit like today's rap cr@p is...

;D

Quoting:
I found out that the dark haired girl is Jeana Tomasina. She was a Playmate (1980) and she was in some forgettable movies (Up The Creek, Double Exposure)
I couldn't find anything on Kim Herrin, so I guess we don't have the right spelling.
Too bad!

She's listed in imdb.com as Kymberly Herrin.  Here's the link: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0380641/

Her movies did better than Jeana, as she was in Ghost Busters, Road House, Beverly Cops 2, and Romancing the Stone.

Kym was March 1981 Playboy Playmate of the Month.  ;D

I once heard Hef claim that being a Playboy Playmate was a stepping stone to a great career.  At least in showbiz, few seem to go very far.  One, Terri Wiegel, or whatever her name is, went into pornography.  I don't think Hef approved, as the Playboy world fancies itself as classier than that.  Many seem to have short lived modeling careers, or get some "bimbo" roles in Hollywood.
There was a great article about Bob Guccione in a recent issue of Rolling Stone.  He's bankrupt and Penthouse is on its last legs.  Some financier bought him out to exploit the Penthouse name, and did Guccione the favor of buying his Manhattan palace before the bank foreclosed on it.  Guccione now rents the place for a buck a year, but for how long?  He's in his 70s, and in bad health.

Jenna Elfman was a ZZ Top girl, as revealed during an interview on the Tonight Show or one of the other late night shows.  She became a scientologist and went on to star in "Dharma and Greg."  She's was recently in that awful Warner Bros. big screen cartoon and did voiceover work in "Finding Nemo."
