This is a crazy one!!! I like the version of Roxy and elsewhere ,but the solo here hits so hard!!!, He put a bit of 'the world is a ghetto (War)' sprinkled with a little bit of Mozart and more in this epic air sculpture!!! Frank was a fan of Black Sabbath!!!
Great reaction as always!
Thanks Rory, la musique de Zappa est en toi...Every album YCDTOSA is top !
Zappa school is...IN SESSION.
The entire "you can't do that on stage anymore" Vol 2 is "the Helsinki concert". The entire vol 2 is worth a listen in its entirety.
A more correct title would be concerts as it is compiled from a few shows.
Now you heard the perfect part of ZAPPA GENRE.... So heavy at times. I also claim the He is the best guitarist... not because of the bulk of guitar work and solos but because of such particular solos and rythm guitars that follow his emotional state on the spot. Just in His element! This is only to be added to your right-on analysis. Thanks!
In the same concert Frank got the request to play Whippin' Post which he picked up a bit later + the Finnish tango Satumaa..it rocks too
Should ave just carried on listen in’ Lad.
Several other songs were played faster over the course of this band but this was played slower and got heavier in the proces.
My favorite Pygmy Twylyte version and definitely in my Top10 'PLAY AT HIGH VOLUME' Zappa tracks!
Some info - as you might have guessed from the adlib spot in the middle of the song, Napoleon had recently been assaulted by a tear-gas-wielding hotel bouncer. Some more of the band's recent bad luck is reflected in the Room Service appendix to this song.
As recently as two months earlier they were still playing the uptempo funky version of the song. The slow and heavy version didn't properly emerge until 1974-08-11.
Pygmy Twylyte is (like CIty Of Tiny Lites) one of the more "indirect" anti-drug songs in Frank's repertoire. I know of just one instance where he talks at length about the lyric and what it means, during the earliest known rendition at Princeton University in '73 (preserved on a lo-fi, hard-work-to-listen-to, audience tape...which I still recommend to Ponty-ficators everywhere).
It's nice to see someone young appreciate Zappa. I agree with your statements about his originality and creativity. I don't think of players in terms of G.O.A.T. but I happen to agree that SRV had more "chops" than Hendrix. But when Hendrix was doing his thing NOBODY was making those sounds. He was a true creative original. Hendrix influenced a whole genre of music (SRV included). Nobody played (or has played) like Zappa as well but I don't think it went beyond him because it was so idiosyncratic to his compositional approach to playing the instrument.
YCDTOSA vol. 2 has (imo) some of the best live music ever recorded, period!
Zappa's guitar is epically nasty/beautiful, masterful masculine muscle mayhem, yet littered with magical melodious musical madness.
I used to describe seeing Zappa in concert as a musical three ring circus...but with 6,7, or sometimes 10 to 16 rings.(as in the case of the Live in New York shows or the Petite Wazoo and Broadway the Hard Way tours)
Awesome track!! I Love the sound of all the instruments!! Thats what sets Zappa different from other musicians and bands and is very original. A mind of a genius and his bandmates! And of course they just jammed out, outstanding!! Awesome reaction Rory and I always love your commentary! And Thank You Calvin for this awesome request, you can't go wrong with some Zappa and company. 😊🩷🔥🎸🤟✌️
I like that some people dont get Frank ! Leaves more for us ! 😂
......and all 100% live and "absolutely no overdubs" on all 6 volumes.....epic! You can't do that on stage anymore 😊
Apparently, the bassdrum on this release is a triggered sample of Chad Wackerman's bassdrum.
Frank played with the volume turned down on the pickups and the gain at around 10/11 o’clock…and just dug in and it would break up beautifully right where he needed it to
I have a brown SG because of this dude, great guitar
In the qualude moonlight…ha
Frank was the f*cking man! Just saw a thing where he’s talking about Lennon stealing one of his songs…there’s footage of them playing at the Fillmore and of course that lunatic Yoko was on stage screaming like a damn banshee trying to ruin everything….other than her the performance was awesome…from John and Frank both…check it out dude
He already did it!
1.SRV 2.Gary Moore
SG was Angus’ guitar
If you see SG you think AC⚡️DC

I think of Frank first.
Toni Iommi of Black Sabbath played a white SG. Would it be fair to say the SG is best attributed to him?
