@TheM In fact I would go as far as to say all the drummers who played with Frank Zappa would get a gold star from the more backbeat oriented Jimmy Carl Black to the more technically gifted like Vinnie C, Chad Wackerman, his brother Brooks is equally as amazing, and of course Terry Bozzio.

Terry Bozzio is criminally underrated and mostly overlooked by the new crop of drummers. UK The Lonely Bears Jeff Beck Missing Persons and more. Explore.
That’s one sentence I never thought I’d read! I guess everyone has their own perspective and background but in my circles Bozzio was always a drum God, all the guys Frank used were extraordinary, Vinnie, Chad, but Terry was on a different level than Peart and Portnoy.
You need to look up underrated. Yeh, lots of modern drummers have moved on from him, but he did that also. But by virtue of being one of the most famous "drummer names" in history, you can't say underrated. Most people had forgotten about the Beatles, if not for the new Disney release, they'd have had the same fate. Most under 30'didnt know who they were... and as a musician, and old guy... I say, so what. Time moves on.
just for beta males & dudes who chase the girl too much & are too needy and give compliments...for alpha guys "don't fool yourself girl...it's goin right up yer poop shoot!!!"
When i grew up in the 70's and 80's, churches closed their doors and became supermarkets or pop stages and so on and religions were just seen as some old tradition held up by a happy few in the bible belt here in holland, but had no influence on society and the public domain, so beside a few believers, no one gave a shit about religion anymore. But now 40-45 years later those fucking religions are stronger than ever and even stands ABOVE the law, because the whole country was in another total lockdown last december, and events were forbidden, except some religious idiots who organised a few ordinairy music concerts but sold it as "church service" so everybody could get in, and no one was checked on corona or got registered and no one needed to wear a mask. So those religious fools can do whatever the fuck they like, because the government doesn't dare to shut them down, so that means that religions are beeing put above the law and that is a serious threath imo because religions have nothing to seek in the public domain or push their will and own laws on society, because religion is a privatte matter and not a social duty, so we must take their self claimed powers away from them and kick them back to where they belong, and that is behind the doors of their homes and churches. I don't care when people believe in god or micheal jackson, aslong they don't bother me with it or even try to force me to have respect or even bow for them because they are not my idols, and it's up to me who and what i want to respect. And the problem with religions is that when they don't fight each other, they start to fight with the non believer aswell so fuck all religions! Religions are for the weak and simple minded idiots who can't take control of their own lives!
I can't imagine him putting the guys through their paces in rehearsal with a song like this. I guess he was a real hardass when it came to practicing. Ugh.
Patrick O'Hearn's monologues were always great. He changed the lines night to night too. Also I had no idea Zappa was playing the rhythm guitar part to this. Maybe along with Adrian. Cool.
Holy crap, I did NOT know that Adrian Belew was among the big list of Zappa 'alumni'! Awesome! Some of these musicians must have had some serious influence just by sheer exposure to the man and his whimsical musical ways! I know that I hear plenty of Zappa-isms in Steve Vai's playing and composition styles, so it surely rubs off on musicians.
The Halloween 1977 line-up of the band featured Terry Bozzio on drums, Tommy Mars and Peter Wolf on keyboards, Adrian Belew on guitar and vocals, Ed Mann on percussion and Patrick O’Hearn on bass.
The story goes that Bowie went to see Zappa one night in Berlin with Iggy Pop. He was so impressed with Belew that he approached him during the show, literally while Frank was soloing on stage, and convinced him to tour with him instead. Later, and in an unbelievable coincidence, the “secret” negotiations they had painstakingly arranged turned out to be in the exact same restaurant where Frank and his band were eating. Realising they’d been rumbled, Bowie tried to make small talk and ease the tension but the only response from Frank was “F*ck you, Captain Tom.” And the rest is history.
Then you'll probably like the Halloween 77 album. It's on spotify (which is free. Something I didn't know for a long time) along with Halloween 81 and of course 73 which is also good. 77 is like 15 hours worth of concerts I think.
Zappa is my go to guy when I take life too seriously. He reminds me just relax and let go. Aside from his musical genius, Frank Zappa was one of the last bastions of sanity in this insane world.
this was the first Zappa song I ever heard, followed by Valley Girl. I didn't realize how great Zappa was as a musician, guitarist, composer, sound engineer etc. until years later. I just thought he was a crazed pervert!
"Broken Hearts Are For Assholes" is not exactly what they would call radio friendly AM. But it's probably just what people needed between yet another airing of "All you need is Love" and "You are Everything".
Im 30, sometimes I feel quite isolated from my generation that doesn’t like this type of music.. people my age listen to “reggaeton” and trap music and its ok… but at the same time I feel badass 😂.. This is my favorite song of Zappa.. I think , like bowie, he was unique too..
Still have the Sheik Yerbouti vinyl.. Just one of the many satirical sermons of the sagacious Mr Frank Zappa and the many illustrious musicians he recorded with ..This video gem including another musical genius in Adrian Belew, King Crimson 'Discipline' another gem in the vinyl collection. Thanks for the great vid of a true genius
TERRY BOZZIO on the Kit, Oh Mike NICE JOB on the SYNC and the 720p!! Thank you for bringing me back to my childhood!! I was 14 when I 1st heard Zappa, BTW
Well, .. no. Depending on what "starting out" means. If he was "starting out", he'd have been bad.. he'd been playing for a long while... before you head of him.
I remember the first time I heard this song, and I believe it was the first Frank Zappa song I ever heard. I am amazed and delighted as deeply today, as I was back then. The genius of Franks legacy lives on!
"Wrist watch . . . Crisco!" Man, I remember the first time I ever heard Zappa -- it was this track and others from SHEIK YERBOUTI, played by the folks at Campus Attractions during a 4-movie film festival in 1982 at the college I would attend a couple years later, when they were setting up the projector in-between movies. There was this song, and "Jewish Princess" and "Bobby Brown Goes Down" . . . and I remember asking out loud, "What the fuck IS this I'm hearing???" Somebody said, "Frank Zappa" and the next day I bought all the Zappa albums in the Used section at a shop named -- I kid you not -- MOTHER'S RECORDS. I caught the Zappa Fever quicker than a mouth-breather Trump voter catches Covid-19 at a MAGA rally. As far as I know, Frank never played a gig in Fargo, ND, where I'm from -- but if he had, from 1982 and on, I would've been there front-and-center. Thank gawd there's so much Frank Zappa content on RUclips, especially concert footage I never expected to ever see. Frank seems to have recorded everything, so . . . Thank Frank!

"Read a history book, as if you were the bad guy", is a deep and profound message from psykology - and Mr. Zappa seems to have the bull bu its horns here.
Things all those other would had said if they were in the same era as Frank, though in some ways they did get in similar jabs. I'm no Shakespeare expert but one of my high school teachers said he came up with the perfect insult "heinous as an anus."
The best part of a Zappa composition is the simple fact that what you hear on the record is exactly what you hear in real life..... A true musician without all the tricks of technology cleaning up crap music today
Zappa did absolutely loads of studio tricks that couldn't be done live, especially in terms of vocal processing. Loads of his stuff has vocals recorded on tape running at different speeds to the backing track so that they play back at pitches that couldn't be achieved otherwise. There's also a bunch of stuff with female session singers contributing vocals (including Tina Turner on Dynamo Hum, who also provided other contributions to the album it came from) which were reinterpreted live with male falsetto vocals. The musicians in his band were all top tier, but a lot of the live performances were very different from the studio versions by necessity because they didn't have the same people who recorded the album in the band and the arrangements needed to be redone in order to account for that, as well as address the cases where someone was playing two instruments simultaneously in the studio version. Part of being a good live band involves knowing how to reinterpret the studio material in a way that fits the resources you have available and Zappa and his band were excellent at it, so to say that it's like the record kind of undersells the level of talent that he and his band displayed in taking these very complex and elaborate pieces of music and making them work live with the limitations that come with that.
Playing with Frank is a challenge on the Prince level. Also the sheer amount of compelling music is on a similar plane. One of a kind talents. They did not take any crap either
Love it. So true and much appreciated. From an old man that has seen Frank many many times, just fiukn wonderful. I feel younger, think I'm going to move to Montana and open a dental floss factory.
He cut through the bullshit and insanity hiprocity with his musical genious you had to be on the same plane as frank to really understand what it really was about

Amen to that!With over 70 Zappa LPs Frank is cemented in my very soul.., I did have the distinct pleasure of seeing him at The Tower Theater in Philly where he had a constant cig.burning at the top of his guitar while going thru his insane solos, remaining so reserved in his movement-this blew me away as an18yr. college kid! I digress-When it comes to Broken Hearts,I always wink when he sings-“it’s wink in’ at you”!Always good for a laugh.Dweezil is kick ass live.
I saw Frank Zappa play Complete You Are What You Is in 1982ish in Boulder Colorado when I too was 18 and I know exactly what you say. To this Day of seeing about 300+ concerts, that is Still my all time number 1 concert. Blew me Away, and I agree 💯% that Dweezil is making his Father Frank very Proud. I've seen Dweezil 6x, and project Object we're fun too. 3x. Thanks for sharing.
Well, it's been on here for 8 months, and at least two versions of it are still available. FZ had much more trouble with censors in the 60s and 70s than the Zappa trust have releasing his music now. He had to set up his own company to get Thingfish released, but now people put it on as a stage show, with no trouble.
Bozio must have driven girls nuts. Master on drums, great rock voice, young ball of fire, mostly naked on stage-even hetero guys could tell he was adorable.
1:05 I love that little laugh Zappa has after the "ugliest son of a bitch I've seen in my life" line, like his own humor cracks him up.
Patrick O'Hearn delivers those lines so well, lol.
I always get a kick out of the fact that Frank wrote the lyrics, and still gets cracked up at them.

Adrian Belew is another master of the guitar. What a band Frank had
First time I've seen video of Belew with Zappa. Those guys were on fire!

Had no idea Adrian Belew played with Zappa, that's great!
I saw this tour...also saw Belew w/Bowie. He's wicked and one helluva entertainer...just like Frank was. I was lucky to see him.
Adrian Belew, truly a master at his craft. Ram it up your poop chute. Just a pressure check. I really miss F.Z.

Love it. So true and much appreciated. From an old man that has seen Frank many many times, just fiukn wonderful. I feel younger, think I'm going to move to Montana and open a dental floss factory.
"don't fool yourself girl, it's going right up your poopchute... " remember the days when you could say that and not be prosecuted?
He cut through the bullshit and insanity hiprocity with his musical genious you had to be on the same plane as frank to really understand what it really was about

drunk much?
Franks drummers are the best in the business!
You need great drummers to write great songs. Mediocre drumming produce mediocre rock songs.
Zappa was filth
@@marlon-jl4ge you must mean filthy nasty guitar player. My favorite and one of the best composers of the Twentieth century...
@@marlon-jl4ge so your mom must love him!
He was an insult to other composers
Sheik Yerbouti is my favorite FZ album.
PUNKY'S WHIPS!!!
A lot of folks don't know he jammed with Jimi. Frank's guitar playing just gets Me where I live, every time. Incredible
I listened to "Freak Out" many years ago. Notably "Go cry on somebody else's shoulder". I figured "how cool I know what he is all about".
Wrong!
“Don’t fool yourself, girl……”
ALL HAIL FRANK ZAPPA 🙌
Amen to that!With over 70 Zappa LPs Frank is cemented in my very soul.., I did have the distinct pleasure of seeing him at The Tower Theater in Philly where he had a constant cig.burning at the top of his guitar while going thru his insane solos, remaining so reserved in his movement-this blew me away as an18yr. college kid! I digress-When it comes to Broken Hearts,I always wink when he sings-“it’s wink in’ at you”!Always good for a laugh.Dweezil is kick ass live.
Hey I was at that Tower Theater concert also! Is that the one where he had a bunch of horns and Jim Gordon on drums?
called cigs his vegatables
I saw Frank Zappa play Complete You Are What You Is in 1982ish in Boulder Colorado when I too was 18 and I know exactly what you say. To this Day of seeing about 300+ concerts, that is Still my all time number 1 concert. Blew me Away, and I agree 💯% that Dweezil is making his Father Frank very Proud. I've seen Dweezil 6x, and project Object we're fun too. 3x.
Thanks for sharing.
The Tower was a great venue for a Zappa show. Got front row seats for the Broadway the Hardway tour. Wish I had a Time Machine.
First album from Zappa I ever heard and I was listening to it in the car with my dad. Funny times lmao
Is that the great Terry Bozzio on the skins
Indeed it is.
Thank you for you're last SHOW IN MUNICH 88!
NOT MUCH GUESTS BUT very good show!!!
Thank you Frank! R.I.P.

I was so fortunate to see him live in Pittsburgh awesome memories
What year if I may ask? I saw him Do
" You are what you is" ca. 1983ish. To this day best Concert Ive ever experienced.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
The world needs him
Sheik Yerbouti...One of Frank's best...Bozzio looking so young!
Imagine releasing this song now LOL
every man and his dog would be souking.
the dog
Well, it's been on here for 8 months, and at least two versions of it are still available. FZ had much more trouble with censors in the 60s and 70s than the Zappa trust have releasing his music now. He had to set up his own company to get Thingfish released, but now people put it on as a stage show, with no trouble.
8 years.
I wish more bands would be like Zappa
This would be a good campaign theme song.
Bozio must have driven girls nuts. Master on drums, great rock voice, young ball of fire, mostly naked on stage-even hetero guys could tell he was adorable.
