What a night.

[@paulfenwick8767]

Nice pick Wayne

[@user-zx6gt5te8t]

Frank was always afraid of being sentimental but he reaches your heart like nobody else with the way he plays melody and the great guitar tones he is able to pull out.

[@SightAfterDark]

Facts

[@chazblitz]

Good pick, Wayne. I listen to a ton of Zappa online. But when I'm pulling out something for a drive, this CD always ends up coming with me. I bought the original vinyl unheard the first time I saw it in the record store back in the early 80's. Although Frank doesn't really employ a Les Paul too often, I think the cover shot is one of my favorite Frank pics.

[@SoundLevel11481]

The reason why you two have done more than 200 Zappa reactions, way more than any other band, is most other bands have less than 30 - 40 songs in their catalog...

[@paulfenwick8767]

One of my favourite tracks from this album. A bit of a rarity for the Zappa catalogue, mellow and subtle. Good pick Wayne.

[@bobwasp825]

Fantasticly unique song from Zappa. It's such a beautiful guitar effect, I've never heard any other tune with this guitar effect.

[@SightAfterDark]

Same! Thanks Bob!

[@TONE11111]

'any kind of pain' from Broadway the Hard Way

[@adamnealis]

​@@TONE11111I was trying to place where I had heard a similar tone/ effect before.

[@SalamaSond]

I would add the first Shut Up And Play Your Guitar solo at/near the top of the FZ solos list, pulled from an Inca Roads performance, as I recall. The sheer unapologetic in-your-face mastery brings tears of joy.

[@SightAfterDark]

Well said!

[@Alix777.]

My favourite solo on an official release is the one from "Truck Driver Divorce"

[@prinznevsky]

Watermelon in Easter Hay, Outside Now, and some of the other "Shut Up" solos get all the kudos, but for me THIS is FZ's best recorded improv on guitar. The vibe, the note choices, the spooky tone (both guitar-wise and the sparenesss of just Guit Bass and drums) makes it awesome, and thanks to master Vai, we can all play it

[@ulgn1964]

One of my top 5 zappa albums, over all the years probably heard it several 100 times.

[@donkraus1991]

Little Umbrellas is an interesting choice

[@vrankholland8113]

Your reactions are always awsome. Not only in words but also the way you tune in when listening the track.

[@SightAfterDark]

Thanks so much for your support!

[@zappafrank1]

Now thats a movie for your ears!!!!

[@SightAfterDark]

Indeed!

[@user-kx1rd3hz5k]

Got the vinyl.

[@SightAfterDark]

Bet it sounds great!

[@universeconsciouscitizensc592]

Thank you! Gorgeous, unpredictable, and so righteous.

[@SightAfterDark]

Indeed!

[@adamnealis]

​@@SightAfterDarkYou referring to Sifa? 😂

[@mikedemike5393]

What a tone...sublime.

[@SightAfterDark]

Indeed

[@FVZCB]

Sublime

[@diegoka7943]

No entiendo todavia por que son tan fanaticos de Pat Metheny en norteamerica...

[@stevedotwood]

I think it's an auto-wah or an envelope follower- the latter I think - I can be wrong though - beautiful indeed

[@prinznevsky]

It's a Phaser. Sounds like an 6 or 8 stage one given the "wah"-like dip in the sweep. He might have an envelope filter on top of it; Zappa had a shit ton of the latest rack-mount gear at the time from a ton of people, and he wasn't afraid to employ them

[@madrettor5675]

@@prinznevsky To be more precise, here he is using a Electro Harmonix Small Stone and the Ursa Major Space Station SST-282

[@johnroberts1708]

Have you two listened to Deep Purple's Flight of the Rat yet? If not, why not? Tut.
