Frank Beard. 11 June 1949 to 17 August 2026
The Feral Irishman brings us bad news. R.I.P. Frank Beard
Click thru for one video that contains the songs "La Grange" from the 1973 album Tres Hombres, "Gimme All Your Lovin'" from the 1983 album Eliminator, "Sharp Dressed Man," also from Eliminator, "Tush" from Fandango (1975), and "Legs" from Eliminator. And a couple of great photos.
Rolling Stone, which I have mostly abandoned in recent years, has Frank Beard, ZZ Top’s Hard-Shuffling Drummer, Dead at 77
The tireless drummer anchored the Texas band on hits like “La Grange,” “Tush,” and “Cheap Sunglasses” during its five-decade run
And an interesting headline from Newsweek (by way of MSN). Frank Beard had the most ironic name in rock. Now ZZ Top's drummer is gone. (Frank Beard was the member of ZZ Top that did not have a beard.
