Great arrangement of this usually very strong song. This is what Dweezil and ZPZ can't replicat. The magic was there the first tour with Zappa Alumni but after that,it wasn't there. Frank was the Dracula of music and we know vampires never die.
"Replicat" - perfect! The Dracula of music/vampires never die. But, traditionally, vampires are already dead, right? Of course, how can anything animate requiring a working CNS, respiratory system etc. be "dead"? It can't. All that being said, your point is well-taken. Points, actually. Dweezil can't carry it w/out the original players and FZ is an eternal musical savant who will live forever. "You are correct, sir!" Or madam or whatever. Kids these days!
Really? It's out there. Just Google it. You will need to find 3 or 4 different short movies. They are pretty spiffy. They were made before GFI and AI, too. when animators actually had talent.
Maybe it's because Tom Fowler broke his hand and they had to replace him with Mike Urso, maybe it was just something in the water that night, but whatever the cause Frank is absolutely pulverizing his guitar on a level rarely heard until the European tour in 82. There's a really nice sense of spaciousness in this, too. Almost Grateful Dead-esque in parts.
An interesting (and wonderful) take on "CR" to say the least w/Frank shredding like a madman & tight performances from all involved. Thanks, PlasticDada II!
Thanks plasticdada II. found this..1974 11 23 - Jenison Fieldhouse, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI The only recorded show with Mike Urso on Bass
In the early 1980's...82?...I went to a Zappa concert in a high school gym in Santa Cruz, CA. I don't remember the names of the musicians, but except for Frank, it was an all black band, dressed in black. There was no comedy in this concert. It consisted of 2 very long sets. These sets were incredibly tight. High quality, and for such a long period of time, without a pause. The only pause was between the 2 sets, where Frank said a couple of sentences at the mic, and then into the 2nd set. No way a bootleg exists for this performance, but maybe Frank recorded it. It would be hot to find a bootleg.
@@mu99ins This is a remarkable comment of an FZ encounter. If you can remember anything else I will ask my team of elves to see if they can locate this strange and undoubtedly obscure FZ evening. I think he was testing something.
@@deepindercheema4917 - Yes, It seemed to me like it was experimental. It was a top notch performance, they spent some time in rehearsal. It might have been 1983 or even 1984. It was many moons...and many brain cells ago.
I'd research it based on the date 11-23-74. I don't know how I stumbled on it. It is quite amazing, but the details escape me, so do files from 4 computers ago. Thanks for enjoying it. If you really need help, there are a lot of carpet sniffers who KNOW Everything and can help you further, down to the guitar, strings and what he was wearing, etc. Thanks for stopping by.
I call this version Chunga's Paradise/Dupree's Revenge, cause it's like a mix between the two (even came after a Duke improvisation and the solos followed a similar order).
I love this cartoon. The cartoons characters were playing the crap outta that music. Instruments were played so hard the instruments were abused to the limit. Good concept for a music video. Thumbs up.

@@ViveLeQuebecLibreTabarnak - No and I'd very much like to listen to the concert again if anyone has a bootleg. It was the tightest band I've ever heard, and the only gap was the short break between sets. There were no gaps between tunes that I remember. I get the idea that it was experimental for Frank, to see if it would work on the road, but I'm only guessing. One issue is that it wasn't a long concert, being just 2 long sets.
@@mu99ins looks like Frank did a few shows at the “Civic Auditorium” in Santa Cruz throughout the early 80s, maybe it was one of those shows. I’m always on the lookout for frank bootlegs so if I find this show and remember you, I’ll post a link on here.
@@ViveLeQuebecLibreTabarnak - Maybe Frank had a West Coast itinerary, which included the Santa Cruz High School auditorium. It's a long haul to get there, whether by bus or flying into the Bay Area to get there. Thanks in advance, if you do find a bootleg. Be sure to bookmark this video in order to notify me.
wow- thanks ! sorry for my ignorance but can you elaborate more about the origin of the movie/s (im a newbe in zappas world) -the synchronization is cool
old Disney is intriguing and absurdly fits well to zappas mood-mind usually i dont like visual enhancement to zappas work -the music is already pictorial and fantastic beyond any words but' this get the pass from me- if its counts :)
Sure. I choreograph them for those who are attending English as a Second Language courses, but that is a bit bullshit, I do these because I want to see what they might look like. I only learned how to do this shit because I was tired of people calling a single picture a video. So thanks, and no I don;t keep count . Something tells me you just landed here recently. Thanks for popping in.
no that recently. i knew zappa's music from way back but i re-encounter my self with his music lately - and expended my familiarity with it, thanks to youtube mass- accessibility! my stupidity-clock is queuing me that this conversation is getting to its limit [i know it from the gaps between our comments- and also i got tired from checking google translate every third word- you cant be satisfied with small word-talk when you dealing with zappa:0] so if i may say just that, curiosity and mostly, creative curiosity is a blessing-so, keep posting
Is that my man George Duke on keyboards/synthesizers? Also, is NMB using an electric sax or does he have a wah peddle hooked on (or both).. This version is an absolute trip!! I think that’s the longest Zappa solo I’ve heard (he even comes back for a little more after a quick key solo), and then NMB and Duke really make it about 3/4’s into the song
You might be right, but Frank is one of those musicians who knew his way around the fretboard and every scale, chord, and key change. He might have purposely gone for something dissonant, or maybe the band failed to pick up on where he was heading. Either way, this is a fabulous performance.
Godfather,nobody can put in my mind a genius music like yours and your musicians.Thanks for all Frank.AAAFNRAA.
With Disney toon,it 's magic.this man is God and nobody knows.thanks Frank.
well, gotdang, this is an FZ sound unlike any I'd heard:
one of the beauties of Frank is there is always something new!
"You are correct, sir!"
My God, this is good!!
God Bless you, Frank.
Rest In The Great Googely Moogely.
On Frank's behalf, thanks
The Great Googley Moogly, indeed! (We see what you did there. Clever, and well-said!)

ZAPPA forever the best yesssssss
whoa ! amazing Disney animations ... I'd love to hear the audio that went along

Spaciousness. GD-esque. True dat.
Unreal....simply unreal.
Thank you for this
Cheers Mate. We aim to please.
You should look around for the Shadow-Banned vids. Nudge-Nudge.
The vids are perfect for this music! Thanks for posting this!
Thank you.
agree, well done, choice cuts, many mercis
WOW. Thank you for this!
Share it arpund.

You are welcome. Dive in. There's more. Let me know if the covid ones still play. Cheers!
Thanks plasticdada II. found this..1974 11 23 - Jenison Fieldhouse, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI

Awesome. Thanks.
Do you know which gigs Mick Rogers played when Tom Fowler was indisposed ? ( broken hand)

Keeping Zappa alive as usual man. Thank you
What a killer version of this tune!
Yeaah!!!
Es un juego teatral fuera de lo convencional .quiero esos dibujos para jugar cuando vuelva a ser niño
A poco!
Amazing Version !!
Thanks for Sharing it.
Cheers! So many versions to choose from!
Bizarre Records would be proud.........
Thanx.
Yet another fine classic video creation
Cheers
it is very good. i enjoyed it much
One of those nights Frank decided to shut up and play his guitar for fifteen minutes.
It was about time!
Otra versión de esta gran rola del gran maese zappa R,i,p t
Asi es. Gracias por venirte
Thanks
Any time.

Thanks !!!!
I genuinely enjoyed this a few times. Its one of my favourite performances of this song in particular (fz is a childhood name not a fanboy)
Thanks for stopping by my Cave . Thank you for your kind comment,
@@plasticdadaii8225 where did you find this version though?
Terrific !!!!
Once in a while the ball goes over the fence.
Thanks for watching.
superb excursion multi dimension

your videos rule. keep making them!

badasssss
Frank, Miles and Jimmy,….
What else doe you need? Nothing
A way to get them to play from the other side?
just wow
wow
I love this jam man, do you know if this is one of the performances on Spotify and if so which one is it?
No I don't. I only go to Spotify for Lei Lani.
It's not available on Spotify i searched it for ages
Just a little tush
It started of "so so", but turned out pretty damn good.
Thanks for sticking with it.
Thank you! data/venue?
None
Indeed
I got a 70 on my last exam. Thanks for boosting my avg,
Can you do Gregory Peckery please
I have, actually
The Lansing concert is amongst the best.
Good to know. Thanks.
At 16:00 it just gets ridiuclous.Just when you think your heard it all.
It was probably worth the ticket price to hear it live.
Just Another Band From Orlando/Anaheim
Nice A/V mash - makes a statement all its own.
That's what they are for. Otherwise they'd be easy as hell to do. Thanks for stopping by. I have more than one posted.
You didn't completely mute the Disney clip! I can still hear horses' hooves and slide-whistles!
Maybe that is why it is still up. Thanks for letting me know.
@@plasticdadaii8225 No problem; it's a relatively minor issue.
wow. #THIStm es niec!!
In the summer....
wow- thanks ! sorry for my ignorance but can you elaborate more about the origin of the movie/s

-the synchronization is cool
It's ancient Disney stuff and Silly Symphony vids, also Disney related. Which ones? Your guess is as good as mine

Might be...
@naglelator Yes, it is. @19:35 he starts to introduce the band. @19:52 he introduces George Duke.
This video is now legal (edit: i dont actually understand copyright laws)
Legal for what? All debts public and private?
@@plasticdadaii8225 something something public domain something something Disney stock collapse
3:32 FZ hits a wrong note ( thats what I think) and gets out of trouble
I think youre right, he simply built a new "pattern" around it, lol
You might be right, but Frank is one of those musicians who knew his way around the fretboard and every scale, chord, and key change. He might have purposely gone for something dissonant, or maybe the band failed to pick up on where he was heading. Either way, this is a fabulous performance.

Ohne Disney Scheiss bitte!
Early Disney Scheiss. At least the sound was different.
