Billy Gibbons – vocals, lead and rhythm guitars.US Hot Rock & Alternative Songs ( Billboard) After negotiating, he returned to direct the video for "Legs". After this damaged his reputation, Newman told Warner he would no longer direct their videos. Newman said, "When they asked me to do another one, the idea that you would do a sequel in a form that isn't even a form struck me as funny, in a very insidery way." He said that a beer company, likely Schlitz, secretly paid Warner for a product placement in the video, but MTV refused to air it until the shots were removed. Records record executive Jeff Ayeroff said that Warner did not want to do a second video, but he convinced them to pay more money for the "Sharp Dressed Man" video. Sharp Dressed Man is a song by ZZ Top, featured on the album Eliminator in 1983 and released as a single that year. The video was directed by Tim Newman, who had also directed the video for "Gimme All Your Lovin'". In the video, a male parking valet is remade as a star by a trio of women driving up in the Eliminator car the band grants him the keys to the car. The "Sharp Dressed Man" music video continues the story of the " Gimme All Your Lovin'" video, and forms a loose trilogy ending with the video for " Legs". In 2020, the song reentered the Billboard charts following the release of the documentary ZZ Top: That Little Ol' Band from Texas. The show ran on A&E from 2012 until 2017.
