5. ChromeoWhite Women

As obtuse as this whole list may be, what drew me to Chromeo was their name. Being a hot-rod head and a car fanatic, I loved the name. It could have been a terrible record and I would have loved it, because you ain’t got nothing unless you got a lot of chrome.



My taste doesn’t run too far into dance or disco but in the grand scheme of things, and for those who are attempting to perceive what ZZ Top is, it’s good on occasion to find an unexpected surprise. On occasion we’d be lumped in with southern rock bands, but we’re really not – it’s Texas. Which is quite a bit different. Texas is down south, but it’s certainly a far cry from South Carolina or Alabama or Georgia.
