Fuck yeah. People always think I’m strange when I say I’d rather lose my sight than my hearing but it’s not even a contest for me. I’d be an empty shell without my tunes
Always liked this song. Remember Dad having the vinyl album back when I was a kid in the 80's. Late 90's, Mum, Dad & sister had a shop and that was called Zoot Allures. Great concert from start to finish.
99.9% sure I was at this show. Some friends and I pulled the trigger on tickets at the last minute and raced in to the city and damn we were glad we did. One of a few wonderful experiences hearing Frank and crew doing what only they can do. Remembering it today as I'm preparing to see Dweezil tomorrow for the second time on his current tour, equally virtuosic and fun and inspiring.
To continually throughout his career, put these types of this level band. Writing this type this level music. Playing these solos. Yeesh. I watched him thru the decades just amaze audience after audience. Never a second rate player never off nite . From motorhead to ensemble modern. Incredible.
First Zappa album I bought in my teens, then I had the chance to see that tour in Paris with Bozzio, o'hearn, Jobson and the man was brilliant as usual...
Of all the people I have lost over the years, family, friends, musicians . . Franks demise pains me the most. I'm so grateful we still have these vids to keep me sane. x
I met him while he was touring with Project Object. I asked him, "After twenty-five years, what was "the life(in music)" like'" He replied with an answer that I had heard from every competent music teacher that I'd ever had. He said, "You work your ass off for eighteen hours a day for those three hours under the lights." Truly, that is what greatness takes.
I was at this show as a kid with my dad! Listen to Zappa even to this day. Have a original press Zoot allures vinyl too. Fantastic music. Thx for the upload 👍
The way he would enter these freaky chordal modes, they felt so psychedelic and strange..so exotic, like a little journey.. he was peaking guitar-wise here, IMO , the way he controlled that Strat feedback w his tremolo, he was a master of that..
I saw Frank back in the 70s in St. Paul, Mn. At the civic center. What a show they put on. To this day I still say it was the best concert of my life and no one has ever top it yet. Rest In Peace Frank, you are forever missed and thanks for the memories.
@@ale6723I got you man, I was in Indianapolis IN, back in Frank's heyday--.I was blessed to have seen many, many great bands-- but never anytime as far as I know, did The Mothers ever play in my 🏡 hometown 😢 My buddy in high school and I saw Black Sabbath, right bef. Ozzy left bec. of his drug problems-🌈 Rainbow, Grateful Dead, Yes, The Beach Boys, REO, Cheap Trick Linda Ronstadt Tom Petty!!
First time seeing Frank Zappa... 16/17-ish at my local youth centre and all I see is Zoot Allures at a screening of Does Humor Belong in Music at my local.youth centre He starts playing the solo.and I immediately realize I know nothing
Thomas Boehm , ...Hello, uh, I have to ask...are you any relation to Théobald Boehm ???...As a Flute player, your last name got my attention, quickly...🎶🔥🕶
I was there with my friend we rode up from Brooklyn on a BSA 650 and Norton 750 it was on the pier upper west side HOT summer night and every bit as electrified as this video thank you for posting, it's unreal to see again...
I was lucky enough to see Frank TWICE! Once was at The Olympic in downtown L. A., with my lifelong pal Jerry, and the other time was at Santa Barbara’s Arlington Theatre with a number of people from my FM Rock station. 2 different shows, several years apart - and both KILLER!
Republicans is fine, If you're a multi-millionaire Democrats is fair, If all you own is what you wear Neither of 'em's REALLY right, 'Cause neither of 'em CARE 'Bout that Hot-Plate Heaven, 'Cause they ain't been there Hot Plate Heaven at the green hotel
Zappa at the Paradise in Boston... Mud Shark... Mother's live with Flo and Eddie...Inca Roads like someone mentioned...we could use Frank's satirical wit these days, but being from Cali, he wouldn't have liked the goings on at all
Today,.. - This and also friendly Otterfish songular (tuneular) selections of the Spiny Spunktwat variety - feed the sand, air and disturbed flying notes assunder. what.
I was disappointed with this album which I bought for a friend when it came out. All the great songs that cried out for a guitar solo - 'Torture', 'Zoot' etc didn't have one. Its only the live shows and bootlegs that really bring it to life. Maybe there was some contractual sh*t going down for the original release ?
Out of all the senses, my ears are my favorite
Bon earpetit. Thank the Lord I'm only half deaf.
Fuck yeah. People always think I’m strange when I say I’d rather lose my sight than my hearing but it’s not even a contest for me. I’d be an empty shell without my tunes
all senses go to the mind which only makes sense
Another incredible piece that Frank composed.
1969 - 2019: ZAPPA FOREVER , après 50 ans , toujours le même bonheur à l'écouter.
Always liked this song. Remember Dad having the vinyl album back when I was a kid in the 80's. Late 90's, Mum, Dad & sister had a shop and that was called Zoot Allures. Great concert from start to finish.
Unbelievable Unbelievable the same I'm 100% I don't believe all my friends tell me Frank Zappa My name is Ali I'm Arab I live in Thailand
FRANK ZAPPA...AND BAND....great live 🎸
Saw him live in the 70's. I agree, absolute genius.
I saw him at Duke University in '72, I believe it was.
I got to see Frank 5 times. I remember in 1984 leaving his show and thinking , well he will be back next year or so. He never came back.
I saw him that year too!

Frank Zappa Is Timeless🤩
My Zappa-mania started with this album. Never recovered from it.
Yep. Zoot Allures got me, big time. It might be the only Zappa album I own...no, I've got Over-Nite Sensation and a few others.
You know, that's a lifelong disease/lol!
@@manoftheworld1000 ok boomer

@@billymays495 I thought you were a boomer, Billy Mays.
Because every rock band should have a French horn.
I never missed Frank when he came through. Best shows and the best guitarist I've ever seen.
Great. One of Zappas best songs, and especially this solo is one of his best. It stirs me to tears. Zappa rules !!!!!!!!!
The Guido K. Group well Black napkins isn't bad either
Mastery. Bravo maestro 👏

We miss you Frank....and do we ever need you now. I feel so lucky so have seen Zappa and co at several London Hammersmith Odeon shows in the 70s..
Zoot Allures comes from the French phrase zut alors. It means “damnit”
"Zut alors, allons-y" Damnit, lets go!
C’est exact ce qui est annoncé
Mais quel est le rapport avec le morceau,
excellent par ailleurs.....?
@@AnnePeters-ub4uh Pas grand chose sauf que c'est marrant à dire en français.
🥱
Ike Willis is always so graceful and beautiful when he plays.
Great guitarist...vastly underrated.
I met him while he was touring with Project Object. I asked him, "After twenty-five years, what was "the life(in music)" like'" He replied with an answer that I had heard from every competent music teacher that I'd ever had. He said, "You work your ass off for eighteen hours a day for those three hours under the lights." Truly, that is what greatness takes.
You sure you don't mean Ray White? Check him out when next you watch Zappa and band Ray was.... unreal!
Frank loved playing in NYC,he went crazy at the Ritz show.
Such an iconic record. This song .... One more reason to stay at the guitar!!!
I was at this show as a kid with my dad! Listen to Zappa even to this day. Have a original press Zoot allures vinyl too. Fantastic music. Thx for the upload 👍
I didn't really get into Zappa and the Mothers until i heard 200 Motels.
Lucky you! One of my fave FZ recordings and you can say you were there!
What a lucky boy!
I was also, we worked our way right up in front of the stage. Great to see this!
OK BOOMER
What else but GENIUS can be said about this guy.
I like how Frank instructed (perhaps even insisted) the audience to sit down and relax. Just listen👂and indulge.
One of my all time favourite Zappa tracks.
The way he would enter these freaky chordal modes, they felt so psychedelic and strange..so exotic, like a little journey.. he was peaking guitar-wise here, IMO , the way he controlled that Strat feedback w his tremolo, he was a master of that..

I have this entire show on DVD. Great DVD!! Zappa will always be one of the greatest of all-time!
please post it on the U tube
What’s the DVD called, is this version of the song on any albums?
@@billymays495It is Does humour belong to music DVD. I have it. Great sounds.

Republicans is fine,
If you're a multi-millionaire
Democrats is fair,
If all you own is what you wear
Neither of 'em's REALLY right,
'Cause neither of 'em CARE
'Bout that Hot-Plate Heaven,
'Cause they ain't been there
Hot Plate Heaven at the green hotel
the best band you ever heard in your life
Timeless and world class him and the musicians
I was there !!!
I cannot imagine how somebody can live without a shot of pure ZAPPASTUFF from time to time :) .... what an experience!
I was at every show he played at the pier. Right beside the intrepid. I miss FZ so much, and now Dweezil has stopped touring😢
Frank was a modern day composer 😎❤️
chad wackerman on drums!!!! NICE!
I almost forgot that Frank could also really play back in the day... one of the true musical geniuses of the 20st century.
Genius on so many levels...percussion, guitar, arrangement and recording.
Could listen to this all day...have...and am doing so now.....
Only mistake ZAPPA made was them Dam cigarettes!!!!!
Zappa is a product of society and a one in a trillion brain along with no free will on his part.
do not expect him to throw the pick
His voice his voice, oh his voice!!! *hearts*
Scott Thunes-- The tastiest bass player on the planet
Of course I was there I saw every NYC show from 1971 to 1988
Excelente! Cómo disfruto esto porque ya no existen bandas con semejante calidad...GRACIAS POR SUBIR ESTE MATERIAL!
Te recomiendo a black midi tienen un estilo similar a zappa
@@21schizoidman43 Gracias! Voy a buscarlo.
Music is truly devolving - where is Frank? I am glad I was able to see him on teo occasions, some years apart, different bands. Sigh.....
Humor ? Yes. And extreme talent......!!!
This chord progression is what you hear when joining elves' heaven..
Thank you CARLOOS81 for this.
WHAT? I was there!! What a surprising video!
Wow! José Antonio Badía tocando la guitarra😍
This was my first FZ album too - I never got to see him.
I heard Dweezil play it last night in Philly. Just like his father.
Zappa at the Paradise in Boston...
Mud Shark... Mother's live with Flo and Eddie...Inca Roads like someone mentioned...we could use Frank's satirical wit these days, but being from Cali, he wouldn't have liked the goings on at all
É il piu' grande musicista della seconda meta' del 900.
Qué genio, cuanta buena musica creó, y la pena es que no viviera mucho más. Viva FZ forever
Zappa pour toujours!!!!
Today,.. - This and also friendly Otterfish songular (tuneular) selections of the Spiny Spunktwat variety - feed the sand, air and disturbed flying notes assunder. what.
Frank in shorts, damnnnnnnn RIP FZ
Grande Frank! Genio assoluto, avanti anni luce!
Avanti anni luce!
@@sylvioandrade2784 👌👌😉🎸❤
Just a further evidence for Zappa is the greatest composer of the 20th century.
The man at the end destroy himself with that scream :O! haha
a Master at work.
It's hard to formulate words for a witty comment when Frank is playing.
Simply unbelievable.
Thinking of you,at least two times a week......
5:30 haha perfect this version has the best solo ever on it
Freakn musical genius
We love you Franky Baby, Franky Freaky Baby, cool man cool yeah.. the red zone is for loading and unloading.

i think zappa and belew are two strat users that never coppied hendrix....everyone else did...and mostly really cheesy way.
the days when you could have a quick tab before the gig.
lmao
Definitely YES!
LONG LIVE FRANK ZAPPA!!! M.O'B
Scott Thunes on bass was the best.
Oh yeah, this is where its at!
This band should be called The Short Hair Band.
Senza parole !!
Musical genius
That drummer is something else.
damn i sure do miss going to his shows :(
Frank spielte Schlagzeug, komponierte Musik, aber die E-Gitarre ist das bestimmende Instrument; Er beherrschte Sie very perfekt.😅😅😅❤
Incredibile e geniale FZ e band.❤❤
great guitar player F.ZAPPA OK
Genius what else!
Impressive
I owned a bootleg vinyl record with Frank Zappa and it was truly bad and sounded like it was recorded out on the toilet - but I bought it
You made the right choice lad
mestre gênio zappaaaaaa❤
Chad Wackerman FTW
God disguised as Frank Zappa
