"Sharp Dressed Man" is a popular song performed by ZZ Top from their signature album Eliminator released in 1983. The song is famous for its guitar riff, recognizable chorus, and music video which received a large amount of airplay during the early years of MTV. When released as a single late in the year, it became their most successful song so far, reaching #2 on the Mainstream Rock charts and #37 on Pop Singles. The song is featured in the 2005 video game Guitar Hero, as well as a brief appearance on an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head entitled "Radio Sweethearts," in which it can be heard on a radio. It also appeared on an S&K men's suits commercial.
