Every Zappa show I ever saw (7 times) was an event to remember and for some reason this particular song reminds me of it all. Like a heavenly soundtrack. It's beautiful simply beautiful.

[nicknick1963]

i love Frank Zappa more than all of you put together

[hihats]

that count off is fantastic !

[MsDink72]

I love this guy

[meshfox]

So emotional...Long live FZ.

[WieteEdz]

Damn this album got so many awesome melodys and beats to lick your fingers

[rollaball1124pat]

Too good. That's it.

[GratefulVince]

only 3 guitarists have ever moved me to tears with a guitar solo - Duane Allman, Jerry Garcia and Frank. Man I went thru a hardcore Zappa phase when I was around 21-22 but haven't listened in forever - all these youtube vids remind me I need to get more Zappa!

[Kberiotwhn]

@GratefulVince Garcia and Frank have that in common haha. I'll have to give Duane Allman some attention, while near a box of tissues hahaha.

[oldmanwyatt]

@GratefulVince kno wot you mean man me too !

[flturtle22]

Music is good. Frank's music is "the best". T.hayes

[donerkebep]

Music is the best.

[domingo4949]

Out of thin air.

[drdave313]

Without a doubt...Quite the masterpiece from "The Garage" Joe's that is.....

[domingo4949]

Good night Frank. Wish you were here.

[ilsedhollander]

fantastic video, thank you very much for the upload. I'll listen it again and again.

[Marseille5]

That's... music !

[lusiferotoma]

Sometime I think God needed a good guitarist in heaven to build up a band with saint peter at the drums, judas at the bass and the virgin Mary as vocalist.

And he has taken away...the best he could find in this earth....

Fuck...I'm happy you play with God now Frank...but I miss you so much, belive me...

God please next time...take Elton John.

@reldditmot

Youre right, Its the Life long quest of a "Zappa addictive person"

to get all the Live versions of his Song

Like for example i got 4 versions of Inca Roads, Peaches En Regalia, Cosmik Debris, City of Tiny Lights ( and i love them ALL )

I really LOVE the Bootleg Anyway the Wind Blows its like a BEST OF

played by the 1980 band

i am always exited when i find new Zappa vids on youtube

[ziggyente1]

sublime, te da la sensacion de libertad, de plenitud, Zappa nos dejo una muestra de su virtuosismo no solo como musico sino como ser humano, porque para crear algo como, esto necesitas ser de espiritu elevado.

[7mikethebike]

absolutely beautiful video and this is the best version I have ever heard of this song. Excellent. You should be proud of this post.

[acloakwithahood]

Air Sculpture at its best.

[jancivil]

Ah, well do I remember the Haskell Harr Method for counting subdivisions "1 e and a..."

[timminananda]

@Jerebear57

I could argue you that at length, starting with guys like Coryell.

but "unique"..? you KNOW when you are hearing Frank Zappa.

[Myluckyescape14]

Been brought up listening to Zappa since I was about 3. I'm 14 now, and can't imagine what music today would be like without his influence.. Love this song so much!

Yep, VC.

[CiscoClan]

i love this song...

[sneakyuploads]

Almost my favourite Zappa , there are so many, but this always springs to mind, when I listen , but when I listen to diff track that becomes my fav, I like Shiek and Joes , but it is all different for diff moods, I tend to prefer the album tracks rather than live, which comes second, When he made the albums, a lot more craft was able to be achieved, his studio techniques were the best production I HAVE EVER HEARD

Cheers Shaun Merry Xmas

Wayne ☺

[reldditmot]

I like the albums obviously, but I know them inside out, it's great to hear different live versions, which is the Zappaphile's quest :D Sheik Yerbouti & Joe's Garage were mostly made up of live tracks anyway, with Zappa's xenochrony and production they have become timeless classics..

All the best to you too Wayne,

(Loved the new Santa vid by the way!)

[sneakyuploads]

@reldditmot Yes I know they were mostly live track but the engineering as you siad made them classics, thanks for the santa appreciate it, I did the music a while back and have just finished remixing it for the video. keep em comin, if I dont comment, its not cause I aint watched them, got a bit more time on my hands at the moment.Cheers Wayne

[Foorehtnossip]

@reldditmot good job with the video .. i imagined i was schroooming In Zappa We Trust , i cross god off and write in Zappa on all of MY american currency

and thats a fact , jack
