Being a huge fan of his work, my girlfriend at the time produced the VIDEO as a gift for my birthday. Amazed from beginning to end but the black page #2 was done so well that I thanked that girl hard that night. Hmmm might give her a call. Music & Zappa r the best x
Who else than Dweezil to bring this beautiful Zappa composition (Chunga's Revenge) ????? Only Frank could play it with more finesse.......but this too is AWESOME!!!!!!
Yes people there is still good music out there, you just have to look for it.....or buy everything from ZAPPA!
This song is on the Frank Zappa album Trance/Fusion, which was a collection of a bunch of cool Frank solos. On this track (chungas revenge) on that album Dweezil actually plays live with Frank. Check it out.
Zappa was a genius and his compositions were extremely innovative but I hate that concert because of all the artificial 1980's digital and transistor sounds and the over inflated Satriani style solos filled with fake harmonics that are played by Steve Vai and Dweezil, which betray Zappa's authentic sound...
I had the enormous pleasure of seeing Zappa live 7 times during his career, first time in 1968 at the Palace Theatre Manchester just after the release of 'Freakout' and the last time after 'Sheik Yer Bouti' was released, saw him and his band in Paris, while on a business trip, Couldn't believe my luck!! RIP Frank
Wow, not many people were fans for that long, or managed to like that huge range of music and live through it enough to type! Lucky is right and good for ya!
This is not the Zappa plays Zappa band. This was filmed back in '93 as a tribute to Frank Zappa. It is called Zappa's Universe. He was too ill to attend at the time. I do highly recommend seeing Zappa Plays Zappa as they are touring again this summer.
I wish Dweezil would invite Mike Keneally to Zappa plays Zappa

AG: In 1991, you were listed as a 'Guest Artist' in the program for the 'Zappa's Universe' concerts in New York - what happened?
WC: Oh, a problem with transport. It was so unorganized. I would've liked to - I was gonna play Crew Slut or five-five-FIVE.

Thanks for the info. I bought the Zappa's Universe CD back in '93; I've haven't listened to it for years. I'll have to go and drag it out.
