1. Montana - Zappa Live Sweden 1973. This song has ridiculously awesome guitar. i recommend playing the solo through a few times to truly appreciate the way he develops it. a great demo for the musicians out there: how to shred it for like 5 minutes and keep it fresh all throughout.

  • What is it about dorian mode sound that allows for such awesome solos? I'm looking at you, So What, Impressions, Montana, etc.

  • for me it's that sharp-4th interval between the minor 3rd and the major sixth. big ugly leap. like in "If only she would'a" that first note is a stretch up to the 6th, while the bg is Im-IV. nasty.

  • dam i wish there was someone as great as zappa scouting musicans nowadays

  • I went to high school in a pretty small town. In the 80s, all the "cool" kids were into Ratt and Bob Jovi. They had probably never heard a Zappa record. Anyways, there was a lower income, mentally disabled kid in school. Always wore dated hand-me-downs and was ridiculed. One day, he wore a Zappa T-shirt and all the "cool" morons laughed. The irony is that Zappa could rock harder than any of the cheeseballs those idiots listned to!!!
