Album of 1984 (Round 3) - RESULT

[1964white]

Sales helped hugely by the videos, which accompanied the singles

But SDM is a fantastic track

I was working HMV (Manchester), It was a massive seller, clever marketing with their videos by their record label. I even remember the vinyl catalogue number W3774, as with hundreds of albums.

A mate of mine was obsessed with it, any time we were in the pub it was blaring out of the jukebox. Good times.

But SDM is a fantastic track

I bought it but it ranks low for me versus other ZZ Top and while I still play El Loco/Tres/Fandango and Tejas I don't play Eliminator anymore...

It's an album that relies on video rather than quality song writing...

That's the problem with the music threads on this forum...you can't have an adverse opinion.

Take it from me, you can have an adverse opinion as long as you don’t mind seeing your nominations go down in flames time after time.

Maybe you should start nominations from the 30’s & 40’s to encourage him.
