@@mstevensn50 : He pointed very clearly to what was going on and didn't pull many punches (for example "Jesus Thinks You're a Jerk" would be considered libellous under many countries' standards). Artistic protest, though, is nearly always taken as fairly innocuous in terms of threat to the Establishment. It's not often clamped down on as in Russia, for instance. In fact, its existence is tolerable because it gives a note of authenticity to 'democratic freedom'. Frank picked up more flak from religious groups and other goodie two shoes because of the sexual vulgarity and innuendo of his lyrics and performances. Needless to say, the values of American youth would be corrupted to a far greater degree by listening to the lyrics of Dinah Mo Hum than mainstream US culture could ever get them up to!!

Today I'm 61 ;) and I'm happy every day when I listen to jazz, modern classical music, Fela Kuti, Jimmie Hendrix, etc. If I can then immerse myself in the incredibly diverse musical world of Frank Zappa, that's all the nicer.

We miss you, Franck.

@diogene2210 9 месяцев назад

Allez voir aussi les vidéos du Yellow Shark concert, ou les covers au piano ou a la guitare classique de Oh No… FZ était avant tout un compositeur. I, y a du Stravinsky ou du Bartok chez lui, entre autres influences, plus un génie propre. Il avançait masqué et arrivait à intéresser des gens venus pour du rock/blues avec des œuvres extrêmement élaborées. En assistant à ses grosses blagues scéniques ou en écoutant ses paroles délirantes, on absorbait sa musique et on finissait par aller voir Varese ou Boulez. Un bienfaiteur de l’humanité, parti bien trop jeune.

I listen to The Roxy Performances on CD from time to time. I also have the Roxy Movie, which sucks because the picture and the sound are out of sync. This is the first time I saw some of it synced up. Much better this way.

Well, that's off you're chest, sküll, you said it, pheeeww. Happy for ya. I was just texting my brother (who turned me to Frank Zappa) what a mind-blowing performance this is. And what a band. So tight. So loose. So funny. So musical. So good. So funny. So jazz. So rock. Such an incredible level of musicianship. Frank put together not just one, but several of the best bands in rock history. This is one of them.

I love this band. As much as I love his other bands. FZ was a genius.

i just love it. And Napoleon is still fit as a sneaker, as wie say in germany - as to be seen at the Zappanale in Bad Doberan. What a pleasure!

It is impossible to believe that with such complex arrangements that no one put a foot wrong. This footage is stunning. To watch the interplay within the band is just awe-inspiring.

By this time in his career, Frank only hired musicians who could read music. He handed them sheet music and expected them to show up to rehearsal prepared.

I miss Frank every day of my life. I'm 65.

What you mean with "late FZ" ? Late ? In 1973 ?

I just randomly found this. I was at the show on December 10. My friends took me for my 20th birthday, which was in the 11th. I remember seeing Miss Pamela and knew she was from the GTOs. It was an awesome night.
