Music videos featuring Fat-Bottom Girls (Rippers, Victories, etc)

Lookie what I found!

Same bill as ZZ Top (in their Deguello phase) that Rockpalast night and while the 'Unter Ronson Band wasn't bad, the phrase was coined later on that one Bill Gibbons had more energy than the two guitarists of the Hunter Ronson Band plus Ian playing guitar together. Not really a fair comparison as Ronson was always a more ornamental player rather than one who brick-walled soundscapes with his Les Paul. That Rockpalast night broke the German market for ZZ Top (who only had a cult following largely among musicians before this, their first ever German gig), but unfortunately did nothing for Ian Hunter (but then Mott the Hoople was never much of a draw in Germany either).



OMG, back then ZZ Top were just a couple of youngish guys with very long beards!

That's the only time I ever saw ZZ - I still have the tee... 

Them on the OGWT around the same time...



err... strayed of (Billy) Gibsons a bit...

[Basvarken]

Those Seymour Duncan pickups sound great

One of my daughter's favorite bands.  I think she's friends with them, too.  Young turks from Chicago.

Looks like a Ripper.  Hard to find a good shot, but at 3:40 there is a decent view.

Ripper, no doubt.

Ultra Bidé. Grabber and a 4003, both in one band. A noise band but hey.

Nice sounding Ripper indeed!

Here's some nice Vic action if you're into proggy stuff.

[Granny Gremlin]

I have never seen a more disaffected-looking frontman.

He played the same Victory when I saw Asia a couple of years ago. Pretty cool that he still has and plays it.

It´s nice to see this in a modern setting, but this performance does no justice to the songs.
And living up to Bill and Roberts playing and energy is some task...

Jake, children are silent when adults discuss prog!

I've seen UK on their reunion tour and they did justice to the songs, Wetton handling the original bass parts well (in truth: UK saw him already simplify his bass playing compared to his Red King Crimson heydays), even with his carpal tunnel syndrome.

And to all intents and purposes, Jobson is UK's front man, he commands the stage with his keyboard battery, is loud as hell, solos lenthily, moves around more than Wetton does, hand signals to cue in the band and does the lion's share of the announcements. That is how Wetton sees it too, he says UK is Jobson's baby just like Asia is his and Downes' and that he is happy to fill the sideman role within UK.
