Finally a cover version of one of Frank's songs that I've listened to and enjoyed. I'd quite happily go and watch this live, somehow NMB has managed to capture a bit of the spirit and feel that has been so sadly missing in other covers I've heard. I hope you come to the UK some time 👍🏼
I will never forget any one of the "Roxy n elsewhere" setup. Make me cry to realize those heroes vanishing. But ok, we had nearly 50 years to enjoy every note and beat, and will have another 1000.000 years in heaven or hell ;-)
Those weapons passed long way from Iraq and were finally brought to occupied Crimea through Syria :))) But Napoleon is amazing anyway! Wish Napoleon should not ever disappear from the world's stages.
The last time I saw project object Napoleon was talking about G Dubya the worm, ike was asking for oxy and referencing rush Limbaugh and passed out on the bar.
🎼💥🔥NAPOLÉON🔥💥...’EY YO !!! ...wow, thanks so much for absolutely all of it...Man, thanks, thanks, thanks...& notfernuthin’ but, you’re one of the reasons that I blow so hard😂, yep, it’s partially you’re fault yo’...😂😂😂, much love, health, strength & big respect, Roger M. Fox🎶🔥🕶
For some reason it's nearly impossible to imitate or cover Zappa. Compared to the real thing all the flaws stand out - intonation, precision, blend, groove, and authenticity. This is true even when FZ radically changed the line up. However, NMB rules this band and they come the closest to anything I've heard so far, including Dweezil.
I agree with every word that you have written here. Normally I can't listen to any of the cover/tribute bands, but I could quite happily go and watch this live, somehow NMB has managed to capture some of the spirit and feel that is so missing in other covers I've heard
I dont think this is the best fz cover, just by the fact that all the musicians except napoleon arent playing as free as the mother did. They are just following instructions (Sheet music) the drummer is reading :c sorry for my english, im not a native speaker but thats just my opinion
Well stated, my friend. As much as I love this rendition, which is very tight, I agree about the freedom and fluidity that only a band, with FZ at the helm, could really achieve.
🎉❤😂Amazing Zappa and The Head Shakers Just superior Art - musical 🎶 heaven
Thanks Frank. You set the bar so high and these guys are jumping over it !! So nice to see Napoleon still doing his stuff.....love it !!!!!
It’s the Zappa on the 8 tracks! Eat a hot dog, tastes real good!
Fantastic! Ruth performing would have been the cherry on the icing.....

Long live FZ's music and those that play it! Mr. Brock is amazing. I met Napoleon and he is a very nice, classy and talented man!
Napoleon est FORMIDABLE !
"And in your dreams
You can see yourself
As a prophet
Saving the world"...

I knew who! Thanks Mr Zappa
NMB is a treasure!
Sounds GOOD!!...A++ , I am Sure FRANK will like this!!...
frank's dead
Napoleon Murphy Brock is the greatest!
Wish i was there, amazing makes me cry
Uncle Frank Genius Lives♥️✨
Un bon souvenir de cette chanson
This is tremendous.
I love Napoleon more than I love them back in the 70s but the end of the show when he thanked all his musicians he should have thanked Frank
maybe because he fired him from the Group?
@napomania why?
Aujourd'hui ZAPPA est repris par des nouveaux talents, et c'est +que GÉNIAL....
Love it but still missing Mr.Zappa!
Love ya Mr. Napoleon. ❤️

Juste génial !
Thank Yer !
Excellent thank you
This sequence of Zappa songs is one of my favourites but loved that trombone too! NmB seemed a little lonely in the flame parts.
Those weapons passed long way from Iraq and were finally brought to occupied Crimea through Syria :)))
But Napoleon is amazing anyway!
Wish Napoleon should not ever disappear from the world's stages.

Check out some of the orchestras playing Frank's music.
100 THUMBS UP
And 2 thumbs down.....must be ahmet and diva.....😃
... and if so, then why?
Liked but I'll leave it.

Its better than the dwezil zappa cover that guy literally dittoed his dads solo
I like the solo though
actually, i think Frank would consider this rather soulless. You hear that beat? That's a pedestrian beat ... you don't dance to that beat ...
This is tremendous.
