Dweezil Zappa - You Can't Ruin Me

[@crashmagnetmusic3035]

I had the LP and it made me believe in creative music, I will always love everything about this album

[@kozygvrl9557]

Oh how I live 4 this song❤️😫

[@vanshipman]

Everyone knows what a fan Dweezil is of Eddie’s playing and I’m pretty sure Dweezil was channeling a little of “Girl Gone Bad,” in that intro. Then the main riff is sort of Randy Rhodes like. One things for sure, that dude is amazing.

In 91, I was in guitar center in Hollywood, picked up a neon green Kramer and it was signed by Dweezil. I wanted it so bad but I was there on vacation visiting my uncle and was out of cash. I did ask the guy at guitar center how much it would be to ship it to Delaware in case I could somehow get the cash for my uncle to pick it up for me. The guy asked, where's Delaware ? In Montana? What do they teach these fools in school that the first state is???

Moon Zappa has a wicked vocal on this one . Dweezil during his VH influence days.He is playing a green Charvel thru a Carvin half stack, great tone without a marshall.

[@elizabethhann4028]

Such a brilliant song. Dweezil sure can play, and Moon sure can sing, when she wants to (as she does here). It sounds like something Alice Cooper would have done - and I mean that as a great compliment - only better (if you ask me), because it features a female vocalist. Besides that, it has such a great roiling stormcloud-dark sound. I love it.

[@petebrenner6074]

I love this song , the intro has harmonic tapping like many Van Halen songs. I wish he made more songs like this. Not enough people know about this album. I still have the tape.

[@jackgibbins7953]

CD reissue please? C'mon Dweezil, lot of people want it!!

[@petebrenner6074]

All the songs on this album are on KZbin individually.

[@karoshiga]

Yeah, you can get a vinyl copy pretty reasonably, but the CD goes for a ransom most times. I still have my cassette, CD and vinyl. Glad I bought way back in the day.

[@petebrenner6074]

@@karoshiga I had the tape but it’s ruined. “Barking pumpkin” records !

[@petebrenner6074]

The song “let’s talk about it “ is in a lesson by Mike Gross. The intro which is open harmonics, and the main riff which is in drop D tuning. The rest of the song is up to the player.

Why wasn't this the hit of the summer?

[@petebrenner6074]

Correction. Most of this album is on KZbin. Some of the songs have been deleted. The whole album was available but one half of the songs are gone . Dweezil is selling that green guitar for like 30 thousand dollars. If you want it act fast. He is selling tons of old equipment, pedals guitars and amps . If you have the money pick one up🤟

[@karoshiga]

Yeah, I've always wanted that Charvel but... Not saying I couldn't but I've got other things that need $30k. If I had it to burn, i would.

[@petebrenner6074]

@@karoshiga save your money man. You could get a new car for that. Nothing fancy. Basic transportation. The original VH Frankenstein was less than 200 for the body and neck. They were going to throw it away. I hate to say this but your sound comes from your fingers and your mind. I have a squire bullet w Seymour Duncan pickups. It sounds good enough for me.🎸

[@karoshiga]

@@petebrenner6074 like i said, not gonna. But if I was made of money i would, just to have. Still playing my old 1990 Ibanez RG770. Only one I held on to over the years. I don't play enough now to warrant spending big dough on a guitar.

[@Rustkill2010]

this is a great song anyone know how to play it? i have a crappy ear i wish someone would guitar tab the songs from this record anyone have anything please post somewhere! i can only find one song ( lets talk about it) i am sure this will not happen but Dweezil if you read this please please look back at your past ( yours not your fathers and do videos on how to play these great songs. I listened to the whole album today mowing the lawn!!!!!

[@petebrenner6074]

What about “My guitar wants to kill your mama “? Hilarious ! Dweezil was friends with Eddie. Ed showed him the proper way to play “Runnin with the devil “ once. He came over to Zappa’s house and they were friends from then on. Dweezil does a wicked cover of “Eruption “. As good as the original. Everybody tries to learn that song but only a select few can do it. I sure as hell can’t play it. 😕

[@karoshiga]

Have that album as well, but for me it's just playing too straight forward. Bad Day and Confessions are much better discs IMO.
