Details: The first time studio album from ZZ Top in nine years is LA FUTURA. The album harks back to the hallmark raw sound of the bands formative years and will, inevitably, be considered a return to form on multiple levels. LA FUTURA, produced by Rick Rubin and Billy F Gibbons, finds the legendary group infusing the newly recorded work with the electric blues / roots approach that typified ZZ Tops earliest work while, at the same time, reaching for new sonic horizons.
