Eliminator is the eighth studio album by American rock band ZZ Top. It was released on March 23, 1983, by Warner Bros. Records. Recorded in Tennessee during 1982, the album was produced by the band's manager Bill Ham and peaked at the top of the charts in many countries. "Gimme All Your Lovin'", "Sharp Dressed Man", "TV Dinners", and "Legs" were released as singles. A Diamond certified album, Eliminator is ZZ Top's most commercially successful release, with sales of over 10 million copies in the United States alone.

 

Eliminator saw ZZ Top incorporate synthesizers and drum machines into their blues rock sound, producing a "tighter" album with a new wave aesthetic.[1] The album used music videos as successful promotional tools—the videos for "Gimme All Your Lovin'", "Sharp Dressed Man" and "Legs" received regular rotation on MTV and helped the band gain popularity a younger base. A customized 1933 Ford coupe, depicted on the album cover, could be seen in the videos. Following Eliminator′s release, ZZ Top embarked on a worldwide concert tour.

Rolling Stone named Eliminator number 398 on its list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[4] It was listed at number 39 in The 100 Greatest Albums of the 80s. A remastered version was released in 2008.
