The band is too big and so looses crispness and punctuality. It is like cake with too much icing and the result is to make this composition sound like the Boston Pops is doing it. Frank had a sharper wit and fewer players.
Excellent rendition. However, the drummer turned the last "part" into 5 measures of 4 rather than 4 measures of 5 as originally written. Don't know if it was the drummers interpretation, the conductors interpretation or the transcription itself, but it's 4 measures 5--like the rest of the song--not 5 of 4.
Cool!

Great attempt... But...

This is actually two songs, at 3:56 begins "Don't You Ever Wash that Thing". Not complaining, I'm certainly glad to have both!

I was there, quite a night (july 10th 2008), in Vienne, France. During the gig Jean-Luc Ponty joined for 3 songs.
He played the opening gig with his band.
I was drunk and on the full video (if it is ever available), it might just be possible to hear me scream "ZAPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" between the songs.
