Saw Zapp last week and they are weak without Roger... They had all the music down and they did the Talk Box well as Roger but they did not have the Charisma and energy that Roger had big difference. I did not expect much without Roger but had to state the facts. I also saw this video when it premiered on BET back in 1989 and it knocked my socks off at how Roger could make a live show a party, everyone in the room had a ball. RIP Roger I will play your music for the rest of my days...
IM from dayton ohio My name is terrell .. I get my hair cut right next door from his old studio they took it down .. NOW SUPER FLYY cuts sit next door and they made it a path way with flowers and his name >> ALL DAYTON, OHIO KNOW IS ZAPP ... OHIO PLAYER .. SLave ... look me up on facebook terrelldavis28@yahoo.com .. Proud to say im from dayton ohio .. he made us ...I walk past the spot he was shot everyday to go to marthon " i see the tree everyday LERRY HIT WHEN HE SHOT HIMSELF "we miss u "
Bass singer Ray Davis is my hero. Not only are his vocal abilities out of this world but he also could keep up with dancers half his age and never miss a step. Proof of this is on one of the earlier parts of this show.
Man, all these ppl who're Auto-Tuning need 2 stop. Y'all're nowhere near better than Roger Troutman. If he was alive right now T-Pain would've never had a career and Lil' Wayne's "Lollipop" would've never been a smash hit. Roger would've ate every Auto-Tuner[especially T-Pain], and other Talkboxers[no disrespect to Devonte Swing and Teddy Riley] alive with a 20 sec. freestyle
That's str8 up 300[like the movie "300"], not 100.
Thank you so much for putting this video up. I wish I could have been there, but I was about 12. I wish more performers were like Roger. Even on video I'm getting hyped up just watching it.
The greatest of all time, Roger Troutman, paired with the greatest analog synth, the Original Minimoog Model D! At 2:50 you hear the superior fat, thick, analog sound of the Minimoog. The Yamaha DX-100 would've sounded weaker...nonetheless, still great in the hands of Roger.
This man loved what he did! Gave the performances his all! His entire band did! He loved his audience and was so humble to share the spotlight the way he did! :)
dang Rip Roger Sr and Jr, Roger Jr was cute too..dang.pure talent..n thats Ray Davis w/ the deep voice..im only 24 n kno that,lol.-n to stamp it, look up Roger's interview wit Donnie Simpson on Video Soul on here, he talks about how he got Ray Davis on wit Zapp n helped him financially..
look up zapp i can make you dance larry the 1 who killed him will be playing the drums but on this i think hes in the back playing the percusssion go to the part3 video an at 3:50/3:58 you will c him with a mustach
your absolutely wrong... The guy that your talking about with the white on the front of his hat, his name is Dale.... He is alive and well.. Roger and Roger jr died, and also the man with the deep voice
hey famu...the second guy on the talkbox doin I wanna be your man IS rogers son...lil lynch or roger jr, he was only a tennsger when this was taped...go to yahoo and type in terry troutman and it will show you a clip of terry workin the hell out the talkbox...get back at me....
rasta is right. Terry is a lil darker with a narrow face. he even has a youtube clip on here, u can clearly tell them apart. i tried to find a part in here where i can point him out but i cant. Lynch (the mixed lookin one) is Roger son, but it doesnt say on wiki that he is apart of the band for some reason.
where did music like this go?
