    I saw Frank Zappa in concert in Germany around 1980. Most mellow concert. He told the crowd, we're here to have a good time, step back and sit down. The crowd listened and it was a fantastic show and everyone could see the stage and show.

      Got me beat buddy, I saw him a couple of dozen times, but I didn't get to start until the late seventies. I can see why Alice Cooper raved about Frank, he got his career off the ground by producing his first album. I've heard that when FZ listened to AC's first album he told him he didn't understand it. Then he surprised him by telling him he would produce it for that reason, can you confirm that? Pretty sure I once heard Cooper tell that story.

      ​@@Peter-Kthat sounds about right. Zappa was very critical of what the music business became I.e, a & r people deciding what "Da kidz" want to hear, instead of before when a big record company cheese would release music they didn't understand and see if it sold. Frank lamented the corporatisation of music and the homogeneity it promoted at the expense of creativity.

  • @bobschenkel7921

    In all the excitement, nobody seems to notice that Frank had a profound classical education. This, of course, is based on the famous legend of Dr. Faustus who sells his soul to the devil (Mephisto) for eternal youth, the "girl" (Gretchen) and fame.

    Halloween was Frank's favorite holiday. He loved cheap sci Fi movies and told it how it is. He constantly adjusted songs for current political/social highlights. He had voter registration available at his performances
    He did a whole album of calling it politicians with 'Frank Zappa Meets the Mother's of Prevention '

    Along with songs like Bobby Brown, Catholic Girls, Jumbo Go Away, Charlie's Enormous Mouth, Be in my Video, Nig Biz, Punky's Whips, just Frank being Frank. Not songs I've chosen to listen to more than once, if I've had to (Even certain albums I avoid with impunity: 200 Motels, Thing-Fish, Filmore East, etc.) Frank wrote songs for many reasons: to be funny, social commentary, to piss people off, etc. Zappa himself said, "You're not going to like all my songs, but I don't give a fuck."

    One thing about that Halloween Live at the Palladium release is it contains 5 concerts with 5 performances of Titties N Beer. The back and forth between Frank and “the Devil” Bozzio is different at each show. I own the release and haven’t played through all five shows yet.

    • @Peter-K
      @Peter-K 2 года назад

      Frank knew that when he played multiple dates in the same city a lot of fans would see every show. There is a clear 'script' for T&B that runs through every version, but like his guitar solos, there was also room for all kinds of improvisation during the conversation between biker Frank and Satanic Bozzio. That's what made each show so different, you could see T&B played 5 times, and all versions have distinct differences that make each of them unique.

    He did something similar on same tour in St Louis when he reamed the promoters for booking show at college quad in the chilly weather.

He was right hand man rehearsing band while FZ composed at his home.

    The Yellow Submarine film was intended for a younger audience, though there are elements of both film and music that are more 'adult' oriented. Hey Bulldog in particular is no kid's song, but it was actually removed from the original release of the film. Both of George Harrison's contributions are pure psychedelia: a sonic recreation of the LSD experience. Kids - don't try this at home. ;)

The best part was, I got to see him do this for the opening song, long ago, on Nov 28th, (thanksgiving weekend) at the beautifully ornate ( and long since closed down) Uptown theatre, with Terry Bozio dressed as the Devil. Epic opening to the show for sure.
