Frank Beard, ZZ Top’s drummer, dead at 77

I can remember when I bought the LaGrange album on vinyl, sat in my bedroom with the headphones on, smoking a joint and just in awe of the band. I wore that album out. Dusty and now Frank! Billy is the last man standing. Getting old sucks! RIP SSL

Major bummer. Just hearing the power in his drumming was a rea treat to the ears.

RIP Frank Beard (Ironically, the only member of the band to not have a beard.)
