This guest-packed effort follows a career-spanning Winter retrospective set.

Billy Gibbons, who joined the often-mocked Canadian band Nickelback on the title track for their 2005 studio effort 'Rockstar,' makes no apologies about an association that began with a chance meeting.

ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons will be making a rare solo club appearance later this month. The guitar maverick has a date set at the B.B. King Blues Club in New York City on Dec. 17.

"We were three guys, we had three chords and the future was wide open."

Guns N' Roses concluded their Australia tour in style yesterday (March 20). The hard rock legends asked members of both opening acts -- ZZ Top and Rose Tattoo -- to join them on stage during their main set. The concert took place at the Brisbane Entertainment Center in Brisbane.

ZZ Top superfans are directed to a new eBay item: Handmade hats similar to the one Billy Gibbons wears are on sale now. They're a little pricey at $375 but, hey, everybody loves a sharp-dressed man, right? Known as a nudu, or Bamileke beanie, it's been a staple of Gibbons' wardrobe for several years now -- ever since he gave his Stetson 10-gallon to the leader of the Bamileke tribe in Cameroon dur

Most of us, of course, know the long-bearded Billy Gibbons for his work with ZZ Top, but before that, he was a member of the '60s psychedelic outfit the Moving Sidewalks. Now, the guitar great has revealed plans to reunite with that band for a one-off show in support of the career retrospective, 'Moving Sidewalks: The Complete Collection.'

Even if you've never heard a ZZ Top song (a travesty) you simply have to have those iconic beards etched into your memory! I doubt any other artists could pull that off today, imagine a boy band with beards like that? Um, nope. Only true rockers can rock a beard much less ones that long... Curious how it all began?

It seems hard to believe now, but as this photograph proves, there was indeed a time when ZZ Top guitarist Billy Gibbons did NOT have a foot-long beard.

When ZZ Top‘s Billy Gibbons showed up to sling drinks during the SXSW festivities in Austin, Tex., the Bloody Marys he made had a special ingredient: his own sauce.
