SHARP DRESSED MAN
“Sharp Dressed Man” is a song performed by ZZ Top from their 1983 album Eliminator. The song was produced by band manager Bill Ham, and recorded and mixed by Terry Manning. Pre-production recording engineer Linden Hudson was very involved in the early stages of this song’s production. ZZ Top played this song at halftime of the 2008 Orange Bowl college football bowl game. (More from Wikipedia)
Beginning with “Gimme All Your Lovin’” in August 1983 as the first single from their album Eliminator (though it was not initially a hit), ZZ Top released a series of rock videos featuring a customized 1933 Ford coupe, a ZZ keychain, a trio of ZZ girls, and some smooth fades, often after giving signature arm gestures. Other videos coming just from the Eliminator album – which was Diamond-certified (i.e., 10 million albums sold) – include “Legs”, “Got Me Under Pressure” and “Sharp Dressed Man”.
