@foutupourfoutu Yup!

@dantean he was amazing in The Grand Wazoo

Well said. Zappa's own guitar playing is a good example of this. He will win no awards for technique, but when the sounds coming out are so beautiful, does it really matter?
-
I believe its John Guerin, Paul Humphrey, & Ron Selico (on Peaches en Regalia). I find a big split among drum lovers: between those interested only in technique & those given to "soul", or other somewhat abstract, ephemeral qualities. Certainly technique seems easier to rate--if rating musicians is one's interest (e.g. A plays faster than B). But its a miserable approach to any art--music, painting, whatever. To me, one doesn't develop skill just to demonstrate one's skill but 2 express oneself.
-
I'm sympathetic to this view. I have a soft spot for Chester Thompson myself. And whoever played on Hot Rats (I believe it was two different session musicians?).

nice to see jean luc as a guest before he went into volcanic mode solo wise.....

Rainbow theater?

Dunbar was by far the most exciting of the Zappa drummers. Fools argue technique, but music lovers know the difference.

I love it how after "I keep calling your name" line Flo & Eddie shout: "Jean-Luc!" :)
It was cool that Ponty sat in, he gives this otherwise vaudevillian sounding blues-rock sort of group some needed Hot Rats flavor when they launch into the improv-heavy "King Kong". Too bad neither of the violinists Zappa had at his disposal back in 1969-1970 (Ponty, Sugarcane) ended up joining this Mothers lineup. As seen from pt5, violin works real well with the bluesed-up "Brain Police".
