d halfnote Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Zappa's early-mid MOI in London to teach 'em abt jazz. Earn bonus points by finding the moment they invent "Riders Onna Storm". [video:youtube] Beefheart Magic Band ventures forth from ColtraneLand ---> [3:30] back in time to Mississippi circa 1933 ---> [7 min] 195X/esque hipsteriana ---> ProtoFunktAsia [9 min] for an extended exploration of the John Fogerty E7 chord. [video:youtube] & Zappa ag'in, this time absolutely rippin' it [5 min ~ 9 min for example or 27 min~33 min] for the Swedish Ppl in 1973 ! Great stuff from Geo Duke (find his quotes from TV show "Good Times " !! ) & others as well. NOTE: several sections feature FZ voczl commentary as well as how he conducted his bands.

d halfnote Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Her's a clip of FZ featuring close ups of finger technique https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9DqykUsqRY [video:youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9DqykUsqRY The basic theme is the usual FZ/rockalizer thang but he throws N the, uh, usual FZ tweaks. The feedback moment drilled in just aft 4 min mark is terrific ! Plus, dig Mike Keneally's sooper stoodious face during the intro ! d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
