[creativesunshine85]

[kevin4peace]

Holy Mothers of Invention... Eddie and Dweezil were here.

[tixximmi]

When the song first came out, I was not impressed. But now I love it. Especially on Playground Psychotic. But this was very nice. Great Job! Brought back memories.

[AllStarBugler]

GREAT JOB! Really enjoyed this. Did you do all the voices? Sounds like Flo and Eddie in the backround.

[LuneyTune72]

This is so well done...I never expected this would be so dead on!

[janajoad1]

It's "the inland empire" not "the England empire" I guess you would have to be from that part of California to know any better.

[jetfire851]

@janajoad1 Knowledge of Californian geography makes this song 500% funnier.

[kousebandslangen]

This is so goooodddd

[redruM123M]

i enjoyed this video verry much thax for the remix of my fav classic ....... 2 terroists voted thumbs down ? can i get a thumbs up

[palermobigband]

Epic, epic, epic. And, plus, in addition, also, as a special added bonus, you got props from two heavies. Can you believe it ? Believe it !

[mynameisLeevilbitch]

If you dislike this then you have got serious problems.

Man, that's fantastic, well done!

[blinkblink75]

This is truly excellent. Truly, truly excellent.

[sotcaadotnet]

[dgolden99]

One nit to pick: it's "Inland Empire," not "England Empire."

[dgolden99]

Phenomenal!

[Kegrath]

@dweezilzappaworld Thanks! Worth every moment.

[Stevemc90]

@dweezilzappaworld How about hiring him Dweezil? Seriously, this guy has CHOPS and THE EYEBROWS!

[Ig0tlif3]

Oh fuck dude, this awesome. Frank's dancing in his grave, for real.

[nicufluf]

[spaced0ubt]

This sir, is the ultimate definition of 'EPIC WIN'.

[evitageNtheGreat]

Great job!

[Rikk303]

doesn;t seem anything like the Band from LA as I recall, but it's good to recall anything. Big show of hands to the guys that had nothing better to do...Here are my hands!!!!! All 3of them. Being 57 and not on acid...still mind-boggling

[robrusdavies]

Dweezil... sign him straight away.. brilliant!

[Morahg]

Excellent, man! You are extremely talented.

[plasticjesus108]

HE HACKED UP IRAQ?

[msampson3d]

This needs a couple thousand more thumbs up.

[intswimming]

From the day...bring on Flo and Eddie too!

[VIDJACK]

Magnificent! I saw this performed live many many many years ago and you've done it justice. Amazing - totally reverent yet completely original. Great work!

[thehip2007]

Good job!

[deracinated1]

[prestonparish]

EPIC!

[GRobb62]

[HammerQQ]

hahaha, this is great! You really nailed this. Bravo!

[steveandbooney]

Eric, this was incredible. The amount of time, effort, and musical creativity you demonstrate is great. You did an amazing job!!

[coloradowinter53]

EXCELLENT!  Took me right back to the 70's in a cloud of nostalgic smoke...

[MrKingkirby]

this was my go to album when i came home high...which was nearly every night!!!it got me thrown out of the house as a senior in high school and out off a few shared apt.s . but i still can't get enuff.

[mrkidskid]

how great 

[TheZombyWoof1808]

Eric. Simply amazing. Words cannot explain just how much passion or respect you must have for FZ's music.

I can't imagine the amount of work this took either. Mindblowing.

[jaquestraw1]

unbelievable dude, well done!!!

[SyTheBorg]

= APPLAUSE NOW =

* Clapclapclapclapclapclapclapcl­apclapclapclapclapclapclapclap­*

[Stuccco]

[Stuccco]

This is so gay....

[kordinia]

I my old soul love the -- oh god your goodness of Billiy was a mountain Ethel was a tree growing on his shouler . _:)))))) greeetings from Vienna Austria - Zappa loved vienne b:-) - TX

[bionicbig]

YEAH !!!!!!!

[jonesaljones]

Amazing! Outstanding!

[vvoodee]

That's just fantastic Eric. If you get the gig can Phil and I ride on the bus?

Let's just make one thing clear, though. WE ARE NOT GROUPIES.

[kaylancom]

Eric... I am really blown away. This is quite amazing. Frank would be proud, being a huge Brian Wilson fan. You captured the humor and the spirit and the vocals are spendid. Congratulations. I hope this leads to something bigger for you. Cuz I'm guessing you don't date much. You have to ask, as I have over the years, "Where is the market for this shit?" and the answer comes back... "There is no future in comedy music, moron!" But the a cappella aspect puts you in a league of your own.

[Kegrath]

@kaylancom Eddie!? Thanks for watching!

[Tbird429cuin]

@kaylancom I'd buy that for a dollar....Comedy Music? As a musician myself I see this as a masterpiece, not a ditty...I'm available for session work...Fa di ad di ah da....XXXXX

[foutupourfoutu]

@kaylancom I didn't know Frank was a Brian Wilson fan! I for one considers them as the two greatest composers of the last 50 years. Do you know more precisely about what Frank Zappa thought about Brian Wilson?

BTW this cover is NEAT

[msampson3d]

Any chance once its all done, we could have an mp3? This is too good

[msampson3d]

I wish the mountain voice was a bit louder, other than that, this is absolutely fantastic!

[AJJAD]

Great!!!

[stealthskeptic]

Had to create an account just to comment on this...

Fuckin'  *awesome*!!!

[spazdor]

This is masterful.

[AlexSmithMusic]

LOL awesome!! I can't wait for Studebaker Hawk! Great idea, doing an a cappella version.

[Stevemc90]

fucking brilliant! and the transcription is spot on!

[phunfaery]

fair-humming on air: ... geolollogy, mwuhahaha, what come next? an empty pizza carton gets rocketed all the way through the closed window, over the garden hedge, onto the neighbour's flawless lawn? chukka, how could you refrain the background choir of prancing dwarves from hitting the high ceiling all the while? All in all a spectacular try... whistle-drizzle... ya, a light shower of pilotes.

[VulturesAwait]

do the middle of Inca Roads next. Great job on this one man.

[VulturesAwait]

Very nice job, AND my favorite vocal mic the SM7b
