Here is the link the original video I reacted to:
• Frank Zappa - Inca Roa...
Here is the link to my other Frank Zappa reaction:

Frank Zappa music is like a movie for your ears.
Great video! Welcome to the world of Zappa
This is typical Zappa!
You might know George Duke as a jazz and R&B keyboard player and producer. You should also know Chester Thompson from being Genesis's live drummer and Phill Collins when he would go on solo tours
don't look, just listen🎸🎸🎸🎸🚬🚬🚬☕☕☕☕
Exactly! Keep the eyes closed!!!!
Every time I listen to Zappa I realize," Oh, that's where Phish got that from"
That middle section is totally different on the album. It's worth a listen just to show how his free wheeling sections are totally improvised.
Zappa was one of the best guitarists I ever saw. I had seen Zappa a number of times. One time in 1971 I was right up front next to the stage. Zappa had two former members of the Turtles - the Phlorescent Leech and Eddie and when they were doing the tune Penis Dimension, Eddie was frothing at the mouth and some of his spittle landed on my face.
On Ruth!
For an early look into Frank Zappa's mind you may want to check out his appearance on The Steve Allen Show from 1962, where he plays a BICYCLE, and encourages Steve's band to play anything "non-musical". For something a little more recognizable try "Trouble Every Day" from his first album with The Mothers Of Invention. Another excellent Guitar song is "Montana" and for a little comedy, try "Titties And Beer", from the album "Live In New York".
Hey there Perk. 1st time watching your channel. Nice job.
~~~ I'm old enough to know who Andre the Giant was ~~~
Agreed, that the claymation is too much of a distraction for a first-time listener to this complex music.
Zappa was primarily a composer. Performer and bandleader came second.
exactly, the claymation is a distraction. You'd better listen to the studio version (which is actually the live version, but with overdubs and better production and balance)
There is only one Frank!
Pure creativity! You don’t see this kind of stuff anymore!
Is there anyone out there today who can step up to the plate and create this kind of music!
And don’t suggest Taylor Swift!
check out Umphreys Mcgee.
As an introduction to Zappa, start with an instrumental audio! Pick from spotify or whatever. You can't easily grasp all the music on the first listening. "Peaches en regalia" or "RDNZL" (both from 1960s) are quite complicated on their own. Then upgrade to album version of this song (Inca Roads) or "Montana" or "Zomby woof" (all from 70s). Then you are prepared to deep dive. Zappa composed many 100s of songs. All genres mixed. Weird, intelligent, unpredictable and usually with very odd lyrics. The efforts are rewarded! And no drugs involved! Frank Zappa died in 1993. His son Dweezil have been touring with his dads music (Zappa plays Zappa) and very skilled musicians during the last decades.
RDNZL from the 60s?
Not quite. 1973 had the first recordings of RDNZL.
@@Frankie_Zappa Thanks! I mixed with Kingkong. RDNZL was recorded probably first time 1972 and I guess was composed after the accidents. Should have written Kingkong.
I was shocked (and saddened) when I found out Dweezil had to SUE for the right to use the Zappa name, and even his first name (Dweezil) when performing Frank's music after Gail (his Mom) died.
IN IT FOR THE MUSIC...?
Then try these from Zappa: Waka-Jawaka, Big Swifty, or The Ocean is the Ultimate Solution. Zappa has over 10 albums that are almost 100% Instrumental.
Frank Zappa wrote this song based on the book Chariots of the Gods by Erich von Daniken written in 1970. It is about what some believe was ancient landing grounds for UFO's in the Andes.
Pish tosh... Zappa laughed at fools like von Daniken!

In early live versions of Inca Roads, Frank mentioned the very book and von Daniken by name.
That's only the lyrics, the main melody is from '69 (according to FZ himself, he wS writing stuff that was too difficult for the original Mothers of Invention to play).
Early versions from early '73 were instrumental.
But he did mention that book on stage at least once.
@@hansvandermeulen5515
Funny you mention the music being written as early as '69.
To my ear, the fast part that is sung after the guitar solo, the lyrics:
Did a vehicle
Come from somewhere out there
Did a vehicle come
From somewhere out there
Did the Indians, first on the bill
Carve up the hill
Did a booger-bear
Come from somewhere out there
Just to land in the Andes?
Was she round
And did she have a motor
Or was she something different
Guacamole Queen
Guacamole Queen
Guacamole Queen
At the Armadillo in Austin Texas, her aura
Or did someone build a place
Or leave a space for Chester's Thing to land
Sounds like part of Peaches En Regalia.
And the funny part is that Frank said that Peaches was one of the only instrumentals that he wrote that he couldn't fit lyrics to.
Well done for looking away from the video for 1st reaction - you can always go back to see what you missed
Thinking about it most Zappa needs a couple of playings to hear what you missed first time
