Happy 73rd birthday to the one and only Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. The last time I saw them live, he played the same guitar for their entire 95-minute set — and even though I watched him like a hawk, I didn’t see him tune it even once between songs. Unless they were miming the entire gig (which I doubt), I have no idea how he pulled that off. Does he play through some sort of electronic auto-tuner? Is his axe so solid that it never goes out of whack? Does he have the lightest touch in rock ’n’ roll? Your guess is as good as mine. Anyway, while you ponder that mystery, spin though these 158 singles, videos, cover tunes, remixes, golden oldies, live performances and holiday tunes — including dozens of treats you won’t find anywhere else. Today’s Tinnitist-approved tracks are tagged with 🕶️. Now hit the streets a-runnin’ and try to beat the masses:
