My only complaint about this video (and the rest of this DVD) is the unnecessary and distracting post-processing of Frank's solos. I have had a tape of the original broadcast since it aired in '81, and I can't understand why the decision was made to pour that maple syrup-like flanging over most of the solos for this DVD release. It really detracts from the enjoyment of this show.
This televangelism is some really dangerous stuff . . . , Zappa was right on! This is better than hip hop, hip hop rarely uses a band or defys the establishment against music censorship or the church!
the public took this guy for a joke, thought he was just a messed up musician making noise, they are so wrong, to be in his band, you had to be a super musician, read music, and play in odd times, just overwhelming players he had, and he was a really intelligent guy,
the world's a shitier place without Frank in it. Plus, looking back now after my youtube journey through the life of Frank Zappa, it would appear to me that not only did Frank invent some of the most fuck off music ever to hit my ears but he never got the recognition he deserved for inventing Rap . Well...it's only 8.15 am, I'm sure I can handle a few more of Frranks tunes b4 hitting the hay.
@pureevilfnord Check out Zappa's 1966 version of "Trouble Every Day". Definitely qualifies as proto-rap and is far more musically interesting than anything else from that era.
you are what you is-tinseltown rebellion-us or them-shut up 'n' play yer guitar-broadway the hard way-one size fits all-over-nite sensation-hot rats........who makes stuff like this nowadays???no-one can......come back frank.......

Only Zappa could perfectly outline pretty much everything that was wrong with the western world and break into an amazing guitar solo...

@joedoap There was proto-rap before Zappa did it. Try some Blowfly or Dolemite.
