Zappa was the musical genius of our generation .... I saw him when he was just starting out in Greenwich Village in 1966 with the original Mothers of Invention ..... There will never be another artist like him ...... truly one of a kind.

This song was inspired by the 1968 Erich von Däniken book, "Chariots of The Gods?" and the subsequent 1973 film of it titled "In Search of Ancient Astronauts," itself a remake of a 1970 West German film, exploring "possible interpretations" of Incan pictographs and ruins. The lyrics, sung by classical pianist George Duke, are taken nearly verbatim from Rod Serling's narration of the film. I've heard other reactors to this piece opine that Zappa had a wild imagination, to have come up with this stuff... 🙏

I'm so gutted that I never got to see Frank live. When I left NZ in the late 80's for the US, he was touring the UK and then when I got to the UK he was back in the US. And then he passed away 😔 In the late 80's while all my mates were listening to Led Zep et al, I was so into Zappa. So many late nights at my parents house in my late teens, baked out of my brain, headphones on, listening to Frank. Great memories.

The keyboard player and vocalist, George Duke, had never sung or played a synthesizer before Frank coerced him into both. He knew the potential of his players. Guacamole Queen refers to a taco stand of renown.

He often said that this was his most accomplished band that could play whatever he chucked at them. Sometimes when he was playing live something would happen in the audience and Frank would pick up on that and he would make the show go in a completely different direction from what the band was expecting and they had to be on it. Frank was the real deal but also supported by truly talented top Drawer musicians as you so rightly observed. Thank you for starting your Zappa journey. Enjoy and be educated by a true master of his art.

He changed his mind about that, though. I remember him saying that the '88 band was the best group of musicians he ever took on the road. But when talking about the best musicians he ever worked with, I never heard him praise anyone more than Ensemble Modern. Probably because not only did they play his music satisfactorily, but they also WANTED to play it. In fact, they paid for their own rehearsals and travel expenses! All Frank had to do was to turn up and conduct them, essentially.

This was a refreshingly honest reaction. Most people when hearing Frank's music for the first time, well, they call it "weird" and stop listening. It's very different when a musician listens to it. And in general, I feel that it's mostly musicians who understand what Frank was doing the most. As you said, it's very composed music, so to get the most out of it, it really helps to have an understanding of both music theory, composition and history, and most commercial music doesn't put such expectations on the audience. You get some bass and a beat with some kind of melody line sprinkled on top, and that's about it. Good to go. Easy for anyone to get into. With Frank's music? No, it doesn't work like that. Or even when it does; on his more simple pop songs, he could never resist the temptation to throw a few things into the mix that would confuse the casual listener. The one thing that is truly essential when listening to Frank's music is having a sense of HUMOR. And unfortunately, a lot of people don't think humor belongs in music.

You nailed it, man. Also what you said about the humor in his music.

Sometimes I have to smile, because of the humor thats expressed just musically.

I never tire of this track - in fact it just sounds better as the years go by. There are some real musical Everests in Zappa's catalogue that soar, and Inca Roads is one of them. I know that it's often hailed as a 'prog' classic, but it's really more a jazz/rock fusion thing on steroids, with more sudden twists and turns than...an interstellar vehicle out there somewhere...

The "rap" or "talk" part that you mentioned at the end is actually a melody, and it is the same melody as in the beginning, only much faster. The same melody is also at 9:58 in the video, but instrumental. You can hear this in a lot of Zappa's music. Melodies beeing reused and slowed down. A good example of that is the song "Song of Orange County" on 'Roxy & Elsewhere", which has a slow beautiful melody sung by Napoleon Murphy Brock, and the same melody comes back in the end at 4:57. I think that is really cool. I discovered a lot of this when I arranged many songs for my Zappa tribute band some years ago.

The thing about Zappa is: no instrument (or musician) is ever used as just a filler. You can listen to any single instrument and simply have a good time enjoying that part of the song. And the next time you hear the song, you can focus on another instrument and enjoy yourself just as much. Quite a rare thing.

@@marlon-jl4ge - Of course there will be difference of opinion with music. There is a wide range of music in this world, and it has to do with one's culture and mindset. Similar is drugs. Some people love alcohol. Others prefer a different drug. Some people don't like any drugs. And so with music, there will always be difference of opinion. That's the problem with video makers who insert music into their videos. His choice of music will offend many people, usually the majority of people. Knocking a piece of music or a musician is not recommended. Try to keep it positive. There's no upside to knocking music, unless you enjoy the act of hating or denouncing something. Long term Zappa fans are accustomed to listening to your kind of ugly comment, because his music disturbs the mind, and most listeners want the opposite. People don't want surprises in music. But, if you listen to one of his songs a few times, the surprises become anticipations, and the mind is no longer disturbed by them. Then you can explore the complexity and experience the beauty. Or not. It is probably true that most people will never like Zappa music. Life is short, so If you find that you do not like Zappa music, I recommend that you not listen to it.

There is a live version of Inca Roads on the album, A Token Of His Extreme, which was released 1 year before, One Size Fits All. To me it is smoother/less harsh sounding then the One Size Fits All version. Zappa's solo is much better and way more soulful. I bought this album in 1974 and have been listing to it at least once a month and it still makes my heart soar and brings tears to my eyes. And as a bonus a friend of Zappa made a claymation movie/video? that is pretty wild and is played during Zappa's solo. Was reading some of the other comments and some talked about having to have trained musicians background to truly appreciate Zappa. I have no musical training. But have been loving Zappa's music since I was 12. I had a paper route in 1965 so at the age of 12 I was flush with cash and buying Zappa's albums. His influence on me made me seek out different genres. Love everything, except C&W, which I call tear in my beer music, and silly love songs.

You should check his early 70s/late 60s pieces with Jean-Luc Ponty. Some of the wildest rock music out there and often there was a jazz violinist leading them.

Particularly, I'm a fan of "The Little House I Used to Live In" from Burnt Weeny Sandwich, "Music for Electric Violin and Low Budget Orchestra" from Ponty's album I mentioned and "King Kong", in the Uncle Meat version, not in Ponty's.

No, he didn't do drugs, other than cigarettes and coffee. He wasn't morally opposed to their use but didn't care for the effects they had, mostly. He was a pretty serious composer and musician, and very selective and demanding of the musicians he chose to play his music, they had to be highly competent to perform his more complex pieces like this, with all the abrupt meter changes and other intricate nuances.

As far as drug use is concerned, he was also not keen on the possibility of any legal and/or financial ramifications. Especially when touring.

This song is Franks opinion of the book Chariot's of the Gods from the day. Did aliens land in S America back in the day? Ruth Underwood is the percussionist and is given props at the end - "For Ruth, for Ruth"! You should check out a live version of this song to see how much fun the band is having while performing this.

In case nobody caught it Inca Roads is about the Nazca Lines in the Andes Mountains in...Peru I think. In the beginning you hear a bunch of different voice jabbering, thats the natives saying, what the heck is it? The thing that was (maybe) round, had a motor (maybe) & needed a place to land. Anyway Zappa apparently agrees w/ the premise that the Nazca Lines were markings to show aliens where to land their spaceships, etc. And Zappa never did drugs, actually fired valuable band members for using them. Anyway, figuring the lyrics is the easy part this time...the music I couldnt begin to decipher, other than to say wow I like it...

Frank was a fierce free-thinker, an uncompromising outsider, a total offbeat and, off course, he was an astonishing music genius... Probably there will never be a USA President celebrating him but who gives the f..k? He was and will always be the greatest musician of modern times hands down, there's no match, sorry all others. P. S. And a tribute must be payed to all his incredible band mates too, he did what he did thanks to them.

I’m sitting here watching you listen to Inca Roads and I get this huge smile on my face because it’s clear that you “get it! You have hot rats, which is one of Frank’s best albums but this particular album, “one size fits all” my choice for the best album that Frank ever put out. The lineup of this band was stellar!

Zappa was hardly ever influenced by anything other than music. He hired people for other stuff, like business or art. He was pushed to offer a disclaimer about drugs, because so many assholes said stupid things about his music. I have to assume that he at least tried smoking weed, because that was the culture, but he always said that he didn't get high, and didn't tolerate band members doing drugs on company time -- his time. When he was dying of cancer, he started having margarita nights at home -- kinda understandable, considering.

Did you find hot rats because of Sugarcane Harris or Jean-Luc Ponty? It is a fantastic album, but if you are a violinist and it is your homebase reference for Zappa music, it would seem that one of these men might have led you to it.

I have loved Zappa for decades and spent thousands of hours listening to his music, but one thing that really grates (which is the thing that a lot of fans love) is the self-indulgent guitar solos that Frank chucks in. They just seem to detract from the brilliant composition and outstanding musicianship of the band.
@dopaminecloud
@dopaminecloud Год назад
Inclined to agree. I'm a huge fan of guitar solos but his solo work is just kind of run of the mill which wouldn't be a problem at all in your average piece. But something as flavorful and incredibly written like inca roads it makes you feel like you're waiting to get back to the music.
