Zappa wrote all of the lyrics and music for every piece of his band, for every song. None of it is improvised except for his guitar solos.

[@gentle_goy23432]

Почти всё

[@myhomeo429]

When you wondered about hearing this when you’re young, I had to laugh. This came out in 1974 when I was 16. They played the first part on the radio one morning and we thought it was funny. My brother, who was 17, bought it a few days later. Just imagine how much less I had seen and heard when I was 16 than you did when you were 16, and you might have an idea how much we were freaked out by this. Over the next few weeks, every time my parents weren’t home, about a dozen of our friends gathered in our basement and listened to this album repeatedly (and lit up a few). Then we got his previous album, Overnight Sensation, and I was hooked. 50 years later, Zappa still surprises me. I was very lucky to have seen three shows on this tour. Surprisingly, there were two outstanding bass players in this band, Patrick O’Hearn and Arthur Barrow, Great reaction, with some really thoughtful insights. . I’d imagine it’s hard to gather your thoughts after hearing this for the first time. Frank’s music seems to resonate better with the younger generations than it did with mine. I hope you do more Zappa reviews.

[@the-eye-is-watching]

Mr. Zappa's music has stuck with me for more than 50 years

[@gobluebuckeye]

Frank Zappa is one of my favorite artists of all time. His catalog is deep. His shit talking deeper.

[@mikefitznb1]

frank is classicly trained...go to youtubr and type classical zappa and listen to it...WILL BLOW YOU AWAY

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Frank Zappa was a staggering intellectual genius extraordinaire. He began composing orchestrated music at the age of 14. The guy wrote in every genre possible. After you've listened to Zappa, there is nothing else. He only lived to 52, but wrote 62 studio albums. He was always messing with his songs. just listen to the Yellow Snow Suite He never plays it the same way twice. The hardest working man in showbiz.

[@angelatoon4936]

Frank Zappa a genius most excellent musician composer and artist seen him 5 times in UK astounding ❤

[@robinreiley1828]

This was from the "Apostrophe" album, where the performance is "Tight". You need to listen to the entire album. Every song is completely different and great in it's own way. "Overnite Sensation" was recorded around the same time and were made to fulfill his Contract with Warner Brothers. I have been listening to Frank since his "Freak Out" album at the end of 1966. Frank's passing in the early 90's was such a tragedy...the advances in computers and Audio Technology , wiuld have finally allowed Zappa to producevwhat was in his head. His work with the Synclavier in the Jazz From Hell album, hinted at this direction, of tempos and sounds that no musician made of Flesh and Bone could play. We miss you Frank!

[@ziusthefirst5387]

Zappa did everything.

[@tomvanaltena7391]

Vinnie colaiuta. On drums Arthur barrow on bass Tommy mars on key Peter wolf on key Ike willis on guitar vocal Danny walley on guitar vocal ed mann on percussie, Just a perfect superiour band

[@Phlakaton88]

Nobody will ever pull off what Frank did. A true original and genius. Probably my all time favorite guitarist too. Composition aside. Which is out of this world!

[@lousekoya1803]

I love it when I see the younger discover Frank the genius Zappa !

[@pascalsimon9780]

He said "Music is the best"...FZ is the best !

[@trevorward8496]

Nothing was or ever will be the ledgend that was frank and his band !!!!

[@Naniamania3]

You are absolutely correct. The first time I saw Frank live I was 12 years old in 1975 and I did not understand in that moment that he really was the goat. As I listened to more music and other artists, I quickly realize how profound he was as a musician, composer, and thinker. There are still only a couple of artist I can think of that work on this level. Thanks for doing this!

[@stevenfrost8040]

I saw Zappa at Ithaca College in January 1975-. He was sick; coming down with the flu. You could tell he felt bad. Still he pressed on and put on a show equally as good as this. At one point of the show he paused and said Ruth Underwood his percussionist had attended Ithaca College school of music. He gave her a lot of solo air time that night. Later during one of her solos he paused again and said ( and I still remember the quote) "I wonder if Ruth is thinking 'I wonder what would have happened if I graduated from here' ". The crowd went crazy and she went wild. All of his solos, he would sit on a milk crate with his back against an amp but gave it his all. His next album One Size Fits All had the songs Inca Roads and Pojama People. There was conjecture that he read the book Chariots of the Gods while he was recovering from the flu while resting on his couch and thus the inspiration for Inca Roads. My favorite FZ songs are Cheepnis and Muffin Man.

[@johnroberts5637]

The Maestro. The one and only time I got to see him live he spent half the night with his back to us, conducting his band. The other half he would wander over to a rack of guitars, plug one in, and play a 10 minute, face melting solo. It was a great night.

[@dr.teflontoejam]

"Watch out where the huskies go and don't you eat that yellow snow" . not only is tis a great song, but its basically a PSA. that was FUN AF way to kick off 2024 bruv!!!! LETS GOO!!!

[@Youlookeddidntyou]

Have an awesome day Tef

[@BoneyWhy]

His level of genius won't be matched again. Remember, he wrote the music for all the instruments! My band started covering him back in 1968 and I have never ceased to be amazed!

[@bernardsalvatore1929]

FLAWD, THIS WAS PRETTY TYPICAL OF WHAT YOU COULD EXPECT IF YOU ATTENDED A FRANK ZAPPA CONCERT IN THE 70S, EARLY 80S, WHICH IS THE TIME THAT I SAW AT LEAST A HALF A DOZEN ZAPPA SHOWS!!! YOU CAN ALWAYS COUNT ON SOME SORT OF CRAZY ANTICS GOING ON!!! FRANK ZAPPA WAS ONE OF A KIND AS AN ARTIST, AS A MUSICIAN, AS AN INDIVIDUAL!! THEY DEFINITELY BROKE THE MOLD WHEN FRANK WAS CREATED!!!❤❤😅

[@user-rf4up2yz1j]

Thanks for playing

[@gobluebuckeye]

Frank was anti political correctness before political correctness was a thing. He fought Al and Tipper Gore censorship laws in congessional hearings. Also, one of the dopest guitar players to ever touch the instrument.

[@ryryreactzz9382]

[@zappafrank1]

Frank Zappa music is like a movie for your ears, you must pay attention.

[@gingerbaker_toad696]

Great catch! Even in all that planned chaos, most is written and Zappa is following his own strict and mad red line and the band really has to be on edge to be able to follow that madmans mind He definitely is dancing across the line of madness and genius

[@45Lonewolf45]

THANK YOU for doing live version, always live if possible especially Rock or Metal 🤘

[@erikahlander3489]

I really enjoyed you two enjoy this. I think there will be more Zappa reactions here! You can actually pick anything! And, yes he made some sort of rapping already at his first album in 1966: like the song "Troubles every day".

[@thinuslamprecht6124]

❤Frank Zappa was so ahead of his time. Incredible 🔥🔥 Thanks for the reactions guys

[@rongt859]

Still is

[@bigswifty9941]

Napolean had the best quote. He said Frank was so far ahead of his time, his time still hasn't come yet.

[@donnielsen154]

Frank is the master of irony and sarcasm in rock and roll. Having seen him multiple times in the 70s and 80s, it was some of the best music ever

[@gelynch52phPH]

Imagine Thanksgiving dinner with Frank Zappa at the table. He didn't play the guitar in this performance, but he is VASTLY underrated as a guitar player.

[@Deanrite]

Totally Bizarre, and total genius.

[@EdwardGregoryNYC]

this could be the best live version of Yellow Snow. Looking forward to seeing so much more FZ on your channel. Pollak is a great comparison. And your right - I did hear this as a kid, and it certainly opened my mind to the idea that you can do anything.

[@threeperrob4258]

Frank has three albums of instrumentals called Shut up and play your guitar. Shut up and play your guitar some more. and the Return of the son of Shut up and play your guitar.

[@MadScientistMikeOfficial]

Frank was a composer, he would write all the music out on sheets and give each member the parts top memorize. He was an odd one, he hated drugs for example, despite this being the sort of music people on drugs would love lol. I heard Lowell George was in his band when he wrote "Willin'" {check out the Little Feat song, his band after Zappa} it's a classic. Frank told him if he likes weed he ought to start his own band, so he did.

[@bjwnashe5589]

Zappa was a genius. He taught himself to read music and then he composed all this music, note for note.

[@alldayadventures5418]

Zappa is the best Story Teller. Uses very few words, lots of support from the band, and he puts Pictures in your mind. If you really want to see some of his deeper musical talent, check out "Willy the Pimp", or "Zoot Allures"

[@jamespuleo3269]

First time checking out your channel, and Good Job !! A first-time-ever listen to FZ can be rough, he's got a lot of very *different* stuff. I love that you started with live concert work, ~~~my suggestion for a follow-up is the live version of Zoot Allures, the show-opener at a 1984 NYC show, that's the first tune in the concert film "Does Humor Belong In Music?"

[@jamomo1371]

12:40 "it's probably a lot of work." Lol, to say the least. Zappa would rehearse his band (which he changed about every year) for 8 hours a day, six days a week, for 4-6 weeks straight before a tour.

[@FVZCB]

Non ne nascerà piu uno cosi e non parlo del musicista perché non ha rivali per creatività e padronanza assoluta della musica...ma qui si parla di un intellettuale satirico fuori dal comune...e pensare che ci ha lasciati che era giovane! GENIO

[@mixodorians12]

The correct reaction.

[@gobluebuckeye]

Listen to his Illinois Enema Bandit, based on a true story.

[@marcvanderiet5592]

He is the goat. You are right. And everything is written out and rehearsed forever. And you folks have so much more to discover. Enjoy the journey, and I love your comments and facial reactions on it!

[@bjrndegaard8510]

very nice reaction to (in my opinion) the greatest.

[@lesblatnyak5947]

Nice reaction to a genius. Frank has 62 albums so you've got lots to choose from. 🙏🍁

[@tiac916iac9]

Amazing!!!

[@MrWaterpumpkin]

I am impreessed by your high estimate. Because, to get it, this here needs real attention - to the whole picture and to the details; to link your mind with the mind of the genius. Harmonies, brilliant musical corners, warts and all :) Thank you!

[@dougoneill7266]

Ahhhhh Frank, I so miss waiting for a new Frank album. I just love this bloke and his bands.

[@Themadnesswithme86]

Definition of ahead of his time.

[@jlrp9929]

you're right!!! FZ and its different lineups are GOATS.. Frank Zappa is not just music, it is an experience.

[@ed-straker]

My Alma Mater GA Southern used to play a lot of Zappa. All in-house arrangements.

[@RatzoBHarris]

She blushed at 14:00!!!

[@anthonyinsetta6046]

I saw him twice on Halloween night at this same venue he was absolutely amazing !!!!

[@roscius6204]

Oh, he wrote it.....

[@howlando6989]

Are you kidding me I just upgraded to highest Flawd level I could find and I don't subscribe to squat. I didn't discover Em for real until 2018 and your reactions are the best, and grew up about 20yrs ahead of you in New Hampshire listening to Zappa, you guys I mean GTFOH I love you both! Zappa was the original free speech warrior before Em, only other guy I can think of that was equal opportunity offender just to make a point that's what free speech is.

[@rickmerlotti7720]

Frank the Great Impresario

[@bigswifty9941]

He was, is and always will be the GOAT. Wait till you see him play the guitar. He was the GOAT there too.

[@Grithron2]

I think this lyric was inspired by a real dream - hence the shifting between protagonists, and the repositioning of situations - but of course it has Frank's usual curses on organised religion (all that symbolic masturbation and fellation), and seemingly random references to cartoons (fur trapper out of Porky Pig?) and TV commercials (the "your highness" bit). Incidentally, frozen dog piss is not very "deadly", as it's been used in medicine and as an antiseptic. (Frozen dog shit is another matter entirely!). If you've ever heard the studio version you'll know that this suite had evolved quite a bit since 1973-4 - in the process, it imported yet more musical material from its infamous sibling-song Rollo (which technically predates it) - AND - If the Flawd folks feel like digging deeper into the Passaic 1978 concert footage - two obvious highlights are Village Of The Sun (which besides being Ike Willis's big vocal moment has, on this occasion, some extended keyboard jamming) and Black Napkins (one of the longest renditions of that: massive guitar/drum battle and a six-string-bass solo too).

[@NeonNights80]

Check out "Florentine Pogen" or "Black Napkins - live at the palladium 1977"

[@scotttrainer9704]

Frank was determined. Ealy on he went on the Steve Allen show (late night tv) and played a bicycle.

[@sonicart1808]

[@fredmichel7061]

Good commentary...about Jackson Pollock, his paintings are wonderful, but typically not too many colors / shades...Frank seemed to use all the colors in the spectrum, visible and invisible.

[@ryryreactzz9382]

Damn now we’re traveling down the road of Zappa!! “The Mothers Of Invention “ this should be fun Zappa was one of the best to do it on a 🎸 !!

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

Zapped again! Uncle Frank is crazier than Chester. His mind is from a different universe or his universe is from a different mind, not sure which is which.😮❤

[@ericzissen7069]

FZ had the most amazing band around him , even people like John Luc Ponte, however the percussionist Ruth Underwood always blows me away.

[@Youlookeddidntyou]

Awesome!

[@johndrx165]

Pretty good example of what he did.

[@robperry5293]

If you think Tom has a rabbit hole, Frank has a massive underground complex. You HAVE to listen to the album version of this song. The recording, mix, engineering is as good as it gets, Quality over the top. I saw Frank in concert two times amazing! Back then If you were a Frank fan your cool creds. were verified by just saying his name, most people didn't know.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST DESCRIPTION OF LISTENING TO ZAPPA THAT I THINK I'VE EVER HEARD!!! KUDOS!! TO ADDRESS YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT IF YOU HAD HEARD THIS WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER GROWING UP HOW YOU THINK IT WOULD HAVE STUCK TO YOU!!?? WELL THE FIRST TIME I HEARD ZAPPA I THINK I WAS 16 YEARS OLD!! I'M NOW 66 AND I'M STILL A HUGE FAN SO YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT WITH THAT ASSESSMENT!!! THERE'S A GOOD POSSIBILITY THAT I WAS AT THIS CONCERT THAT YOU GUYS JUST WATCHED THIS SONG FROM!! I KNOW I WAS AT A HALLOWEEN CONCERT ONLY A FEW WEEKS AFTER THIS IN THAT SAME YEAR AT THE PALLADIUM THEATER IN NEW YORK CITY!!! I LIVED IN NORTHEAST NEW JERSEY SO GOING TO THE CAPITOL THEATER IN PASSAIC WAS NOT DIFFICULT!!! HONESTLY SOME OF THE BEST CONCERTS THAT I EVER WENT TO WERE ZAPPA, AND I WENT TO SOME DOOZIES WHEN I WAS IN MY TEENAGE YEARS IN THE 70S THROUGH MY TWENTIES IN THE 80S!❤❤ I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT YOU GUYS ARE NOT GOING TO BE DISAPPOINTED WITH ANY FRANK ZAPPA THAT YOU CHOOSE TO LISTEN TO!!!🎉

[@stevedotwood]

Wow, superb reaction. He truly was the GOAT. It takes a life long study. He was a composer who could also laugh at himself (and others). The humor is as great as his musical ability. He has written big band jazz, doowop stuff, modern classic, avantgarde, rock, pop, blues, music hall, and no musical genre was beneath him. He loved everyting, and he mocked everything at the same time.

[@TANTRUMGASM]
