I almost want to no one else to like this video... even though Frank changed my life and I love him. I know 420 likes = weed related, and Frank wasn't keen on drunks... I am quite partial though... and like tobacco was to frank, Marijuana is my meal.. to get through it all.
@fridun007 Yes, this performance is from Season 2/Episode 10. Candice Bergen host, Frank Zappa musical guest. Frank was both host and musical guest Season 4/Episode 3. You can stream both on Netflix, but that probably won't last forever. :)
as a young boy i wandered if crazy music like this was wrong; i finally understood that wrong is right; but now this music seems wrong because it is not techno or pop music; did i loose my time or has the world become stupid?
¿Cómo es posible que haya un tío por ahí que dice que no le gusta esta composición...?...Ahh¡ ya caigo,eres tú...el único anti-zappa de la red.Tú te lo pierdes,nosotros lo disfrutamos.Esta música perdurará en el tiempo y el espacio.
@assfacedfucker Jean Luc Ponty. He currently plays for jazz fusion super group Return to Forever (led by Chick Corea) and is on tour with Zappa Plays Zappa (Dweezil).
That looks an awful lot like Eddie Jobson on violin, but surely that can't be right. It even looks like the violin Jobson used to play when he was with Roxy Music.
@kiak12 If you're talking about the violin, there's no synth there. That's just an electric violin you're hearing. If doesn't sound like a violin it's because most of his lines are being doubled by the flute and/or guitar in various places. I'm not sure the technology even existed in 1976 to trigger a synth from a violin.
@fabiopl Obviously originally from Hot Rats. This version is from a DVD called transmissions. There was a limited edition CD with the same name and this version was on that. Good luck in trying to find it though.
Also Patrick O'Hearn, Alan Rubin, Don Grolnick, Ronnie Cuber, Maricicio Smith, David Samuels, Lou Marini, Ronnie Cuber and Tom Malone, some of the horn section you may recognise from The Blues Brothers movie. John Belushi actually appears on Purple Lagoon later in the show. It was recorded on 11th December 1976 for the American version of Saturday Night Live
The amazing Terry Bozzio on drums and Eddie Jobson on violin. Saw Jobson live with Jethro Tull in 1980. Great concert.
