As noted, Johnny Guitar Watson was a huge influence on Zappa. This song in particular inspired him to switch from drums and take up guitar. Watson later returned the favor by contributing to four Zappa LPs, and even dropping in on a couple of live performances. He also participated in some of the home jam sessions Frank held in his final days.
This guy was a HERO of FRANK ZAPPA!!!😎👍
They played together and even recorded a few .

Back in England in the 70's I bought his "a real mother for you" album. One of my more "hip" friends had to explain thr title to me.
Frank had him do the excellent lead vocals on the song In France. Zappa loved this guy!
I didn't know that's, that's a great song.
Hi Sifa..........oh you too Dan.
Hot damn.
Guy could shred!
Classic stuff! Wonder if he broke a lot of guitar strings with that unique staccato picking style. 🤣Great review SAD!
