HOUSTON - Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top says "The Little Ol' Band from Texas" will be releasing its first new CD in seven years and music industry expert Dave Morales was the first to learn the breaking entertainment news.

Gibbons, who comprises ZZ Top along with Dusty Hill and Frank Beard, shared the developments with Morales before the band flew overseas to take part in a summer tour, which begins in Europe.
