Of the several recordings of "Little House" this is the second best I've heard. The best is still the first cut on the 2nd side of Burnt Weenie Sandwich.
Very cool. You can really hear the dense orchestral voicings in the beginning. Oddly melodic meandering toward the end (compared to the album versions). I like it though.
@Peter Gray I think I read in The Real Frank Zappa Book that he treated the piano as just another rhythm instrument, which it is on some level. He must have not thought much of his own piano skills as he never showed what he could do in a live setting.
@@Craig-dv3ji you can hear him on keys on Sleep Dirt, but all the more complex work is done by Ian Underwood. It makes them easy to differentiate on the album.
out of hundreds and hundreds of compositions 2:06-2:28 might be my favorite thing he ever wrote
You can really hear his influences and the compositional company he kept in solo piano reductions like this. Beautiful playing Marc!

"Played by Peter Wolf or Tommy Mars"
Well, it's Frank coughing at the end.
it's Frank, I believe
@Peter Gray How do you know that? Straight question. I've always wondered what his piano playing abilities were.
