No one gives me more drive to buckle down and work hard on my musical ability more than Frank. He’s no nonsense. He’s almost like my music dad or at least that’s kinda where I put him.
He wasn't always, that's for sure. This one I think he enjoyed, talking shop and all that usually intrigued him. These guys weren't just patronizing him and I think he seemed pleased
Wonderful video! If you are wondering why Frank seems so particularly comfortable and at ease in this interview it's because he is the focus of a group. There are (Ithink) at least three people in the room, playing their part in the discussion. This was Frank in his element.
If you'd like to know how Frank lived at home not shown in other books, from getting up to going to bed, rehearsing with the Mothers, composing on the piano, visiting rock stars, freaks, family squabbles, then try my story, Freak Out! My Life with Frank Zappa 1968-1971'.
Zappa was good because he was prepared to work hard. Really hard. Record companies weren't ready for his work ethic - not a typical lazy rock musician - just look at his incredible output.
Sixty-two albums during his lifetime, plus another fifty that were released posthumously. He had a sizeable vault of tapes in his house, so only Zeus knows how much he recorded in otal.
What a genius. He summed it all up perfectly. I've seen so many extremely talented musos who never got past "first bass" simply because they didn't/wouldn't conform to the System. Macca and Boylo are just two examples.
@@HoriaNeagu If you go into the settings on whatever device you're watching on you can turn the audio to Mono and that way you can hear Frank's voice in both ears instead of one. I realize you've probably watched the video already but just for the future
How about his home life not revealed in interviews or in other books, from getting up to going to bed, composing at the piano, rehearsing with the Mothers, visiting rock stars, freaks, family squabbles, and more, all found in Freak Out! My Life with Frank Zappa 1968-1971.'

The days when we used to memorize and play amazing music. We did this in the 1970's Fusion Days. In a funky little cover band. We played/REHEARSED relentlessly in 1974-1980, Fusion. Which meant. playing Zappa, Santana, Allman Brothers, Jethro Tull, DIxie Dregs, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Mahavishnu John McClaughlin, Joe Walsh, The Who, Eric Clapton, Tubes, etc and etc. anything and everything that was a hit on the radio & current in between the Masters of Reality. I played rhythm guitar between two fantastic lead players capable of playing all of these guys music. Our live outdoor parties we're legendary. All around LA in those days and in our are of Santa Barbara County these things we're going on. We we'ren't the only ones. And, Frank Zappa was our guiding light. This was my first band and I learned more in those years than the rest of my life. That little band had people lined up around a block to get into to see us. We we're very young and didn't even know better, by the 1980's drugs and alcohol ruined it all. Mostly cocaine and massive egos. I'll say this about Music and Politics....ever since ..... lazy and stupid...politics and music... "Hell is filled with amateur musicians" George Bernard Shaw and "Socialism is for Ass holes" Frank Zappa
In this interview, which seems to be from about 1979, the internet is obviously not even on the radar. Zappa died in 1993 just before it really took off. I often wonder if he knew how ubiquitous it would become.
He talks about how people could consume music through their phone lines instead of buying discs in his Real Frank Zappa Book. It was predictive of Napster in some respects.
Look at Adrian Belew. After playing with Zappa he went on to play with Bowie,Talking Heads, King Crimson (for decades), Paul Simon, Nine Inch Nails.....
no. they saw the truth of the times they lived in. taking anybody out of its context leads to misunderstanding. some of what frank (and george) talked about is still true, an awful lot has changed. Frank remains my hero but don’t treat him like a religious or political leader.
@@geenadasilva9287 There's nothing political or religious about my statement. I didn't say they saw things through devine intervention. They just saw where things were going and spoke on it prior to most other people realizing the truth.

It's interesting Frank and the host which appears to be MTV they are guessing what will happen to radio, TV, and music, and this is in the 80's. Its funny they talk about who will be bigger traditional TV or the Cable industry, they got no idea CDs will go to 18 bux and then die, .MP3 will kill the record industry, Clear Channel will kill the radio industry, MTV will turn into horrid reality shows, and regular television as we knew will be completely dead and gone, everyone now watches and listens from a cell phone, for everything. How could they know!
I would have loved to audition for Zappa under the pretense of "I can't sight read music, and I am not super skilled per se, but I can't think of any musical artist or composer who would be better to learn ANYTHING from"
I speculate Zappa would habe been against the "social justice" types just as much as the neocons and Trumpians. The more I hear Zappa and read his interviews, the more I think his bluntness and even rudeness at times really came from a place of love. Zappa tried to free people of their emotional and psychological hang ups. Sort of like his attitude was "You might not think so, but you're probably capable of being more intelligent and honest if you'd just stop with the bullshit."
@@straycat3582 Because at the time of the interview I was seeing, he was a vocal democrat, disliked Reagan with a passion and the republican. But you know things change. I hated the Republican as much if not more than Dems after Bush jr. but still Trump reconcile me big time ounce I went over our Canadian fake media making him look like a crazy fool dangerous man :P

@@itkojecockot I've always been haunted by the song Mom and Dad. It was so different from all the other stuff he was doing - instead of playful and mocking it was so dead serious. In that respect I would compare it to The Torture Never Stops.
@@michaelhellmer8531 agreed...... wish the album was longer...... to me it feels like listening to a "musicalized" lifetime of someone incredibly intelligent and funny...... such a fluent and vital piece of art...... conceptually brilliant
8-10 hours / day, 6 days / week. If this guy had gotten paid by the hour for all the work he put into practicing, writing, and planing, he would have made three times the money he did. For a guy that goofed around a lot in his music, he was very serious about getting it right.
Sound quality on this is atrocious. Can't hear the interviewer's questions at all, and even the subtitle generator can't hear him. Frank, however, comes across loud and clear. RIP to the most coherent pop star of them all ;-)
frank zappa must have been trying to be self depricating byconstantly describing himself as ugly. he was ridiculously gorgeous, even when trying to pull off the disheveled look.
i heard a song recently in a UPS store that must have been called "I SWEAR" ...some young girl requested i play it in a bar a few years back. ( ok she was 28 , maybe i should say DUMB instead of young ) and it was THE most insipid piece of crap i have EVER heard in my life. i cant believe this is STILL going on up to the 2020's When Frank said that these love song affect peoples mental health in a negative way, i thought of THAT one
You should have said, do i look like 4 black guys that sing acapella? Were you playing a gig, Or at a party? I don't do requests anymore because of shit like that
Watch his 20 minute interview with MTV on 12/84 and you will see his true side of cynicism and music industry hatred in one of his greatest interviews ever.
The reason I say 1982,is because he mentions Chad Wackerman, he joined for the 1982 tour, David Logeman was the drummer in 1981, hastily stepping in shoes of Vinnie Colaiuta who was fired
While I adore Frank's music, I can sit FOR HOURS listening to Frank talk. Genius.
I wish there was a history of Frank Zappa and his music. I think it would take a lifetime to know Mr.Zappa's music.
Same for me, exactly !
I know people who don't listen to his music and just are intrigued by clips like this, where Frank's showcasing his pearls of wisdom!

Unusual to see a female fan for Frank Zappa. There are so few of us.
The days when we used to memorize and play amazing music.

Jethro Tull, DIxie Dregs, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Mahavishnu John McClaughlin,
Joe Walsh, The Who, Eric Clapton, Tubes, etc and etc. anything and everything
that was a hit on the radio & current in between the Masters of Reality.
I played rhythm guitar between two fantastic lead players
capable of playing all of these guys music.
Our live outdoor parties we're legendary. All around
LA in those days and in our are of Santa Barbara County
