It was about aliens. Erich Von Daniken's book "Chariots of the Gods" explaining the painted signs by the Inca's (or landing sites) meant for Aliens. They was world-class musicians which Frank always surrounded him by. The music is very complex, but still very humorous at the same time.
Sooo nice to see,when younger is more fimiliar with Frank.
"Zoot Allures" is a great intro to Franks instrumental music. Most of his albums will often feature 1 or 2 pure instrumental tunes. Zoot Allures is a masterpiece...
yeah, it's great. (Love all of his instrumentals).
Chester Thompson on drums, Ruth Underwood on the Marimba and George Duke on Vocals and Keys, great stuff!!
Frank Zappa el mejor compositor y guitarrista del siglo XX
Frank Zappa music is like a movie for your ears.
This is 'The Mothers' at their Jazziest, almost freeform.
I think The Roxy & Elsewhere must be one o mi fave Live Lps by Zappa although YCDTOS V2 is a close Second and Live In New York (the 3LP Version) right behind them.
The best music for old child ! viva Zappa
Bruce Bickford did the Claymation for the Video. This particular iteration of the band played absolutely crazy sets and they had to be Note Perfect and also be able to Improvise at the Drop of a Hat. George Duke was the Keyboard Player and until he joined the Mothers he had never played any kind of Electric Keyboard/Synth.
Zappa stuck a bunch of Bruce's work into a few videos, almost none of which was created for that specific song. I believe the scenes apart from Zappa playing might have been from one or two of Bruce's "own" projects. Bruce worked alone, animating at 24fps. His morphing style was and probably is unmatched.
If memory serves right, Bruce and Zappa had a contract where everything Bruce created "belonged" to Zappa.
When they parted ways, Zappa kept all figurines in his liking, except for one tiny set of the mothers of invention. We also found one of Frank's packs of cigarettes among Bruce's things while selecting pieces for an exhibition (in Germany, 2017).
Bruce was such a gentle, albeit troubled soul. It was an immense privilege meeting him and working with him on the exhibition.
We went to see castle Neuschwanstein when he was over for the show. He cut my pizza when we went out for dinner. When I dropped them off at the airport, he shook my hand, something he never or extremely rarely did with anyone.
Truly a one-of-a-kind, absolutely underappreciated artist.
@@TommiBrem I think Zappa was very much like that. I pay for this and therefore it is mine. If you are in my Band you get paid. The Audience Pays to see us therefore we owe them the best we can do on the night.
It's a fairly straightforward way of thinking but I think it worked well for him.
Zappa was INSISTENT that his musicians do NO drugs!....of course, he himself drank about 40 cups of coffee every day!!!!
Not to forget the Chain Smoking.
This is the song I suggest when someone asks where to start with Zappa.
Can't go wrong with Frank Zappa.
Please do more Zappa...might I suggest "Stink-Foot" or "Cosmik Debris" or "Montana" or the list goes on and on..
Inca Roads is about the Nasca Lines.
They are in South America.
Look them up.
About ancient aliens.
Due to my older brother who had this 8-track in 1975, I listened to this when I was 12, repeatedly.. I didn't fully grasp it at the time, but I knew is was glorious. And to this day, I feel the One Size Fits All album is the greatest masterpiece he ever created.
All of Frank's bands and Frank were drug free zones
This performance was also the basic track for the "studio" version on One Size Fits All with a guitar sollo from a performance in Finland about amonth later and lots of overdubs.
Would that be fi The Helsinki Tapes?
@@SPKdesign1 yep, that's the one.
The goat a Musical tresure in any way
Thank you Thank you Thank you. Keep it up😊
It was about UFOs and particularly how Frank was inspired to write this music and lyrics after reading the book "Chariots of the Gods" by Eric Von Daniken. I had the grest fortune of seeing this lineup of the touring Mothers band (Ralph Humphrey, Chester Thompson, Ruth Underwood, Tom, Bruce, and Walt Fowler George Duke, Napolean Murphy Brock and F.Z.) not once, but twice as well as seeing The Grand Wazoo tour ( Frank's big band.) 1972 -75.A great time in general for all kinds of music. Thanks for this channel!
Of all the Line Ups, this is the one I would have loved to have seen.
Unmatched...
It's about the idea that aliens made a bunch of stuff in the ancient world, but Frank's answer is asking if the Indians carved up the hill.
Thanks for the reaction, I didn't think you'd regret it ! One of,if not the best Zappa composition ever.
The sound is exquisite. Frank always hade the very best production. He was the best.
This is Frank satirising the nonsense about aliens building the Nazca lines and also the overblown fantasy in a lot of prog rock of the time. Being Frank it was all done with the most amazing musicianship. This is my favourite line up of his band but he always had the best musicians
Watching first time reactions to Zappa is a mainstay of my TH-cam use. Thank you for this
“Grown-up music”! Great notion, however his audience back then were yonger, albeit not excactly kids. Great sincere and spontaniuos reaction! Keep it up! And good luck with the root canal! Had two done myself. Not funny! Cheers from Singapore!
The great thing Is Frank Did No Drugs
He did caffeine and Nicotine.
You should listen to Pygmy and the twilight too from roxy and elswherre
Great to watch a couple of people who really appreciate what’s going on in this music. One of my favourites from Frank.
I love this reaction so much I had to chime in twice. About this music being for older people, I can see what you’re saying but I fell in love with Zappa when I was 16. I’m 60 now. In a way, I feel bad for you that you’re only learning about Frank now lol. If you’re going to stick with this you’d better buckle up because this is the deepest rabbit hole there is and Zappa fans are fairly relentless. There’s an early Zappa album called “We’re only in it for the money”, which btw is my favorite Zappa album. So you can be in it only for the money or you can be in it to really learn about the best most underrated artist of the 20th century. Both is good. Get er dun.
I’m half expecting Howard Moon from The Mighty Boosh to show up on stage 🤣.. freeform modern jazz is his thing
👍🏴
I think there is Video up somewhere of one of Zappa's Dance Competitions where he gets audience members up onstage and makes them dance to really silly music.
@@SPKdesign1 I think that's "The Black Page" - which isn't silly at all, it's one of the most difficult and dense pieces he ever composed. (and he let people dance on it, lol) - or you might be talking about the Roxy movie?
@@stevedotwood I think there are a couple of bits o video fi various places but it wasn't the Black Page version. That's a phenomenal piece.
16:14 I hadn't heard of City Limits
A Muchmusic TV show hosted by Chris Ward in the 1980's. All alternative music.
Sorry about the token of his extreme animation. I find it distracts from the music.
Yeah I would be so happy if they would release a video of this concert without the claymation.
excellent channel, like your presentation style, subscribed, thank you
Frank had quite the career doing what he wanted to do when he wanted to do it. Probably one of the smartest people in the music industry. He knew the business & used his knowledge to his fiscal & artistic advantage. Good stuff.
It took him a while to get oot o the Contract he had wi Warner Brothers but he did it eventually.
Frank. Insane and Mirth. Good stuff!
This can cause lots of "WTF!" moments for those not familiar with FZ's style...Muffin Man live 1977 is my usual go to intro for gentle easing as its a bit of FZ being a bit of a rock god. Only his solos were improvised (all were) the rest was scored and woe betide anyone who played a note out of place. Shut Up And Play Your Guitar, SUAPYG Some More and The Return Of SUAPYG are all solos ripped from the London Hammersmith gigs '79 from the night's performances of Inca Roads if you want variations on a theme.
🏴 happy healthy peace ✌️
Why don’t you sharpen it then?!?! Some really good observations here! I’m always happy to see someone find Frank Zappa and appreciate what he did. Great reaction and please keep the Zappa coming. The Yellow Snow Suite is a nice treat!
We have a Patreon channel where we show music reactions that don't make it to TH-cam. Free for everyone. Link in the description. 😄😊
Do you know where Frank came up with the "Why don't you sharpen it then!" line?
My understanding is that Frank was having some home improvements done and one carpenter weas complaining about something not being sharp enough and the other carpenter yelled out "Well why don't you sharpen it then?!?!". This was heard throughout the house apparently. @@Royale_with_Cheeze
@@GoodCorporateRobot
Close, but not quite.
It was one carpenter who would mutter to himself about his tool not being sharp enough and he would say that to himself. Frank picked up on everything.
I wonder if that carpenter ever even knew his outburst ended up in this song.
It actually ended up in numerous live performances.@@Royale_with_Cheeze
IMO Ruth Underwood is the star of this performance.
😝 knew that would get ye oot o yer chariot big man 😅- you won’t be surprised to know I WONT be commenting 😝
👍🏴
That's OK, Zappa isnae everybodys thing. I often get strange looks when folk go through my Vinyl and realise I have about 70 Zappa releases inc 4 or 5 3LP Box Sets, 8 or 9 4LP sets, a couple o 10LP Boxes and I think a 6LP Set.
@@SPKdesign1 👌
👍🏴
Wow.
@@hanierfamily Amongst Zappa Collectors, that's not considered a large ammount.
Noo we're talking...
CHECK TO THE DNC MUSTA BEEN LATE
