Now available in paperback, Billy F Gibbons throws wide his garage and studio doors for an exclusive look at his exquisite vintage and wayout custom guitars and his influential hot rods and custom cars. From the mythical '59 Les Paul sunburst known as Pearly Gates and the "Furry One" of MTV renown to cars like the Eliminator, CadZZilla, and Kopperhed, they're all here-more than four dozen guitars and ten astounding vehicles, all expounded upon by BFG himself and shown, in specially commissioned color photography. And while BFG's cars 'n' guitars are the stuff of legend, no less intriguing are the tales behind his incredible music career. From teenage Houston garage rock to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the whole story is between these covers, told in the Good Reverend Willie G's own words and illustrated with photos and memorabilia from his personal archive.
Billy F Gibbons is a musician, actor, and hot rod and car customizer perhaps best known as the lead guitarist for ZZ Top. Tom Vickers is a longtime music industry pro, having worked as a journalist, manager, A&R man, publicist, and producer. A renowned photographer residing in the Bay Area. David Perry defined the modern hot rod pin-up in the early 1990s. His other books include Hot Rod Pin-Ups II and Hot Rod Kings.
