I'm sure ZZ top played bad to the bone, but they never released it on any albums.
No
Billy F Gibbons gave ZZ TOP the name at the band's inception in !969.
I have researched this topic, thinking myself that ZZ Top did record Black Betty, but I found that ZZ Top never has recorded it. There are 14 studio albums, 6 compilation albums and 42 singles by ZZ Top and none of them have Black Betty as a recorded track. The Band Ram Jam released the song Black Betty on their album Ram Jam in 1977 track # 1, it was their best known song. The songs Original Artist is James ( Iron Head ) Baker. Recorded by Iron Head, Huddie ( Lead Belly ) Ledbetter, Ram Jam, Manfred Mann, Ministry, Spiderbait, Meat Loaf and Soil.
Opening act was Extreme. ZZ TOP had a kick-ass stage setup! The zz-girls were nice too.
