Tush

Haw, haw, haw! Get down with ZZ Top's legendary 1975 hard rock classic, "Tush"! Driven by a signature slide guitar riff and Dusty Hill's gritty vocals, this track from the Fandango! album became their first Top 20 hit, defining their Texas sound.

Released as a single from their 1975 album Fandango!, "Tush" perfectly captured ZZ Top's unique blend of blues rock roots, hard rock power, and infectious boogie rock rhythm. Its Southern rock swagger and unforgettable guitar work solidified the band's rising stardom and distinctive musical identity.

This 1975 rock anthem is pure ZZ Top: raw, energetic, and built around a simple yet killer guitar riff. Featuring Dusty Hill on lead vocals asking for "a little tush," the song's blend of hard rock, blues rock, and boogie rock remains incredibly influential and instantly recognizable.

SONG MEANING: The title "Tush" is Texas slang with a double meaning. While it can refer to buttocks, in the context of the song ("I ain't askin' for much / I'm lookin' for a little tush"), it's primarily interpreted as slang for luxury, comfort, or the finer things in life, which the singer is seeking after traveling and working hard ("Dallas, Texas, Hollywood").
