Did Frank Zappa Compose the First Djent Riff? 

Did the the Mother of Invention invent Djent riffing?
I've always loved Frank's ostinato from Andy off his 1975 release, One Size Fits All. The original was played by Tom Fowler on bass, accompanied by Chester Thompson on drums and George Duke on keys - what a freakin' line up, right???
It's quite tricky to play - well, for me, anyway.
Ever since one of my sons started downloading Animals As Leaders, Circles, Periphery, and more, I began thinking "Zappa already wrote an awesome riff like this."
In this quick clip I try to test that theory.
With some sage advice from Scott Thunes.
So, whether you like #Zappa or #Djent #riffs, you'll probably get something out of this.
Played on my ol' faithful Fernandes Strat. Used an octave patch in Logic because I don't have a 7 or 8 string guitar.
