About

Deguello is the sixth studio album by American blues rock band ZZ Top, released in 1979. "Degüello" means "beheading" or, idiomatically, "no quarter" (as in "no surrender to be given or accepted--a fight to the death") in Spanish and was the title of a Moorish-origin bugle call used by the Mexican Army forces at the Battle of the Alamo, Texas, in 1836. Degüello was produced by Bill Ham, and engineered by Bob Ludwig and recorded and mixed by Terry Manning. The production values of the album were exquisite and set a new benchmark for high fidelity recording quality in the contemporary blues music of the late 1970s.
