Never cared for the later to current day cartoon/clown like image, but they have at least 3(5 star) recordings that are essential to a classic rock collection.
"The Who know substituting for Entwistle is possible, but replacing him is not. Frank and Billy know the same about Dusty."

ZZ Top the band, can go on with a "guest" bass player, but the ZZ Top image is now done. It's those 2 beards and sunglasses that can't be replaced.
Dusty Hill was as integral to ZZ Top's sound as John Entwistle was to The Who's. 

The Who know substituting for Entwistle is possible, but replacing him is not. Frank and Billy know the same about Dusty.

RIP, Mr. Hill.
Won't miss him personally, but I feel for his friends and family. I never liked the band.
