10 Famous Musicians Who Literally Did The Same Thing Every Time

10. Always Singing The Blues - ZZ Top

Coming out of the heart of Texas in the late 60's, ZZ Top were poised to become one of the biggest blues bands imaginable. Everything from their tasty licks to their frontmen's luscious beards gave the impression of seasoned veterans who lived and breathed every aspect of their craft.

That being said, the majority of ZZ Top's catalog never strays all that far out of the typical chord progressions that you find in any blues tune. Even if the sound is brought through synthesizers on albums like Eliminator, the actual structure of the song never tends to work its way out of the typical 12 bar shuffle. Hell, even the band's most successful track "La Grange" never bothers to move its chord aside from once during the solo.

On the other hand, that tried and true sound works absolute wonders when fed through Billy Gibbons's amplifier. The way he weaves together solos while the band thunders away is nothing short of musical perfection. No matter how many times you may have heard that tired old blues foundation, ZZ Top always finds a way to keep it low to the ground and grooving. It may only be a few chords, but this little ol' band from Texas prove that those chords are all they need to wow us.
