Dusty Hill RIP
|
I was a fan for much of that time.
He was born May 19, 1949 and passed this Earth on July 28, 2021.
He was a versatile musician and also sang lead as well as backing vocals, and played keyboards.
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of ZZ Top in 2004.
Dusty Hill passed in his sleep at his home in Houston, Texas July 28, 2021 at the age of 72. He was interred during a private service on August 7, 2021. Phil Robertson from Duck Dynasty gave the eulogy.
Give Elwood the bottom end, and take it to the Top. |
So quite a career came to an end that day. I still have my recordings to enjoy though the thought of Dusty Hill's departure gives me pause to consider his impact on me and music itself.
