Nice! it's great to have people comment on this... I'm the transcriber/arranger and sax/clarinetist of this group. It's very curious to see how much detail Zappa fans tend to hear reproduced in his live music, even if it's performed by someone else. This was our second live performance and well, we tried our best and are very grateful for your concern and detailed hearing. We'll be playing on June 17 at the Zappanoia festival in Lisboa. Hope we can do better!
@Pricto Hey, man, you guys still did good (great). I formerly posted as "jaffijoe". Don't take it personally, but this is probably one of my favorite Zappa tunes, and it is based upon a power trio groove. So, I have probably listened to the guitar, bass and drums more that any human should listen to any one song. In my book, anybody that is out there playing Frank's music with great skill and acumen is aces in my book. Though, I would like to hear some artistic use of feedback on the guitar.
@synestheticmonotony Well, I can understand, I'm also a zappa music lover. We are playing his music now, among other things, but personally I'd prefer him alive playing for us. It's a shame he died so soon. In relation to the artistic feedback, well I think our very own Director Wilkins is doing much better now. What I like most about him is that his fingers seem to get caught by the strings... he has a sticky sound similar to Zappa's, maybe is his hyperflexia.
You guys did a great job....we appreciate you.........

too fast. in min 2.05 guitar lacks force in one of the most important parts of the song.
anyway not easy to play zappa music. great job.

Except that the bass missed a few parts and the guitarists isn't using the artistic use of feedback like Zappa did on the original.
