  • He has a really normal speaking voice.

  • Awesome interview. He is one of my favorite Zappa keyboardists! Need a Scott Thunes interview next!

  • I know exactly what he means about the wrong note being played to drive you crazy. Frank experimented with that, I wonder how Tommy dealt with it.

  • what specs is he wearing now? :-)

  • tommy was great,a great player,a great musician,a great person.I miss you tommy .I miss the baby snakes days.

  • this is amazing! Borat interviews Tommy Mars

  • I love Tommy Mars! I've been listening to him on Jon Larsen's Strange News From Mars. A great album!

  • I love Tommy Mars ! He and George Duke are my favorites....Thanks so much for the post!

  • Maybe it was the weird yellow thing he wore in Baby Snakes

  • thanks for this, i have been hearing tommy mars for a long time in recordings, and recently got interested in him , starting to appreciate his wild soulful playing more now.

  • I didn't know Bruno was even active in the mid-1990s, and why is he interviewing a rock keyboardist?

    Seriously -- Mars was great. I loved watching him with Zappa live. I never knew much about him -- thanks for posting!

  • What do we mean by "was"? He ain't dead.

  • Not like he is topping off the HIt Parade or headlining at Bonaroo, either.

    But I did mean "was great with Zappa." I'm sure he still rips. and would love the see him.

  • thank you

  • Why was he not in the 84 or 88 line-up?

  • He was too good! Too good!

  • Thanks for posting this interview. Tommy always seemed to get so much pleasure out of playing Frank Zappa's unique music as we fans did from listening to it.

    I'm about the same age as Tommy and he's inspired me to start learning keyboard recently - even though I have bad arthritis in my fingers I'm finding it very rewarding on many levels, plus it's a great workout for my fingers.

    Just wish I'd started learning fifty years ago!

  • On Tommy's request? Yeah, well the other picture wasn't that flattering, I guess
