The long wait for a new ZZ Top album is over: the band is releasing their latest studio effort, La Futura , on Tuesday.  In celebration of the record's arrival, the Texas trio will be visiting the J&R Music store in downtown New York City at 5 p.m. ET that afternoon to sign copies of the CD and meet with fans.

If you're hoping for a chance to get an autographed copy of La Futura , you must pre-order the disc at the store or JR.com, at which time you'll be issued a wristband.  If you can't make it the event, a contest at the J&R Music NYC Facebook page is offering fans a chance to win a signed copy of the album by revealing your favorite ZZ Top song at the website.

La Futura was co-produced by ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons and famed producer Rick Rubin , and features 10 new tunes, including "I Gotsta Get Paid," "Chartreuse" and "I Don't Wanna Lose, Lose, You."  The collection is the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's full-length follow-up the 2003's Mescalero .

ZZ Top currently is supporting La Futura with a U.S. tour that's scheduled through an October 27 show at Bee Cave, Texas.
