I wonder if the zappa family ever releases his later synclavier / sampling stuff. There must be tons of it lying in dust but it might be "too advanced" for them to review and choose from.
@lordoid if you haven't heard yet ;)... go to Barfko Swill and purchase "Feeding The Monkies At Ma Maison"- it's "new" and was brilliantly imagined on his Synclavier. It has a more deeply sampled and fine tuned version of "Resolver ED" as the title track. And three uncut, much longer tracks related to Phaze III... and two fantastic bonus tracks.
This documentary is beautifully concieved, shot and edited, so much in the spirit of Frank. I love it and have seen it countless until I completely wore out the VHS tape I recorded it on. Glad someone posted it. Thank you!
@boogster123321 I feel ya man. When I heard Zappa had passed I actually cried. Never thought that I'd do that over a celebrity I never met, but yeah, Zappa wasn't like other people. Nearly 20 years ago it was. Still time moves on, but zappa aint here, and thats sad as hell.
@duckmonsterX I was only 4 years old when he died but I was fortunate enough to have my father expose me to Zappa's music during my early childhood. his work has been such a tremendous source of joy and inspiration in my life that I too get brought to tears knowing he's not around to share his talents and wisdom with us.
FINALLY somebody uploads parts of this brilliant, brilliant interview. Never saw Zappa detail his musical philosophies so in-debth as he does here, and an interviewer who has done his research and knows what he's talking about. Henning Lohner was also the guy who introduced Zappa to the Ensemble Modern, who worked with Zappa on some of the last material he released.
Release more synclavier material please. "Feeding the Monkies" was brilliant.

This video is extremely important to learn something more on the "classic" side of Frank Zappa the composer.
