His playing on stuff like Heard It on the X and Manic Mechanic was crazy.  Kind of a secret weapon like Michael Anthony.  RIP.

Saw this on Bob & Tom yesterday.  Made me laugh.  Then made me wonder how I missed something so obvious.

ZZ Top songs from Eliminator have been playing more heavily on the radio, and people keep referencing songs from Eliminator.  

They do not realize those songs were created with a drum machine.

Has anyone ever broken down exactly which songs featured the drum machine in the final mix, and not Beard? There are also multiple versions of "Legs", with the original album version sounding much more raw than the super polished version from the video. The CD I have of Eliminator unfortunately has the Video mix, but I think if you get a new CD now (while you can) Eliminator is back to the original mix.
