    Yes, Zappa on guitar. You've got to realize one thing about Zappa, there were no rules. You could expect him to do anything at any time. He played in literally every genre. The guy wrote for band and orchestra, jazz fusion, rock, pop, funk, punk, orchestral, musique concrete, you name it. Master of satire, lyrical insanity, and beyond. There was only one and will never be another one, Zappa. RIP, maestro.

      In the late 70s and 1980s yeah , he improved massively when he was seriously injured in the mid 70s , he didn’t have much to do so he practiced a lot when previously he wasn’t that interested in pushing his limits as a technical player too much.

    One does not simply start listening to Frank Zappa. You need to find your entry point into his vast catalog. Once you start to understand what he was about, the rest will reveal themselves to you.
    Start with Black Napkins, Regyptian Strut, and Peaches en Regalia. Then start with stuff off Apostrophe and Overnight Sensation to warm up to the vocal tracks. By then you’ll be all in for Zappa’s genius.

    This was the second time George Duke was in Zappa's band. The first was about 1970 or so when Duke won an audition against stiff competition.

    Great reaction; Zappa was a musician’s musician, and he only played with the best in his band. Too many albums (60+), whole albums best, but easier way in is ‘Yellow Snow Suite’ on ‘Apostrophe’, or ‘Inca Roads’ on ‘One Size Firs All’ (side 2 of which is sublime).

    I was in 8th grade in 1979 when I first heard this. It changed my life. Many years later Joe Walsh summed it up for me when he said, paraphrased, musicians in this time were testifying. Testifying. And that was Frank himself on guitar. Heard a lot of Zappa in my life...this is my favorite recording of a Zappa solo. Terry's drums. The whole thing. A testimony to sound and creation and what Frank wanted to say. Of myself I say there is not, nor ought there be, nothing so exalted on the face of God's great Earth as that prince of foods...the muffin.

      He was a great composer, musician and innovator in recording techniques. It’s great to see this generation viewing Frank with an open mind after the widespread derision he received from the press in the 60’s and 70’s. A lot of people never heard him because his music wasn’t played on the radio and he had a lot of bad press so a lot of people who never heard Franks music didn’t like him. It’s great to see the music live on. Maybe history won’t see us as the weirdos.

    Zappa was one of the most-serious musicians who never looked like he took anything seriously. The guy was a composition machine though; he'd be writing music constantly: at home, on the bus, before and after shows. All self-taught too.

    It is said that at interviews for positions in the band , instead of classics or current pop tunes he would ask them to play things like "The captain crunch jingle, as though it were jazz" and "Beathovens 5th as Regae". You had to be at the top of your shit to impress this cat.

    He was all about playful, profane, diverse and innovative compositions with totally complex rhythmic components. He was also a brilliant composer whose bands were technically excellent.

    I remember as a kid, probably 14, hearing this for the first time. I had just started playing drums about oh, maybe a year and between the George Duke keyboards in the beginning, the Terry Bozio drums, and that ripping ass Frank guitar solo I was mesmerized. I didn't care if he was singing about carrots in love, that was badass! So, not sure the lyrics deserved the music behind it, but who cares!? Did you hear that solo!? 😏

    Frank never took drugs, and made the band sign a contract that if they get caught on drugs by him while in session or doing live gigs, he would sack them, so NO DRUGS or you're OUT BUDDY!!!
    That's one of the things that make him stand out for that time period, which was flooded in every drug you could think of.
