"You won't learn anything here, except whether or not you can keep a beat and whether or not your system can take being cranked up to club levels, but it sure is a fun listen! - Michael Fremer, Musicangle.com "

Fandango! is the fourth album by American blues-rock band ZZ Top, released in 1975. Half the cuts are selections from live shows, the other half are new songs from the studio. A remastered and expanded edition of this album was released on February 28, 2006.

Fandango, from which the album gets its name, is a type of dance similar to flamenco.

Thunderbird

Thunderbird was originally written and performed by the Nightcaps, a band formed in the 1950s when the members were teenagers.The Nightcaps performed the song and distributed it on their album "Wine, Wine, Wine" but never applied for copyright. ZZ Top began performing its version of the song in 1975, and has conceded that its version is lyrically and musically identical to the Nightcaps' song. The Nightcaps sued ZZ Top for, among other things, copyright infringement, but their claims were dismissed because, in part, ZZ Top had registered a copyright on the song in 1975.
