Are you a guitarist,just wondering, I've been at it for 38years, started at 12,,,,I love the old hairbands still rocking out to SKID ROW, POISON,WARRENT,LOL
***** I disagree. Dweezil is really conventional as a guitarist, and while he may have more graceful technique than Frank did, he has no where near the improvisational ability of Frank. Frank's knowledge of theory, harmonic concepts, and risk-taking as an improviser are unmatched by Dweezil. I think Dweezil is really a talented guitarist, but his dad was far more innovative. Dweezil sounds like basically any 80's shredder whereas Frank sounds like...well Frank.
***** He's absolutely a better player than 80's shredders, but Dweezil has been the first one to admit on numerous occasions that his primary influences were...80's shredders. Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, Steve Vai, etc. And you can definitely hear that stylistic influence in Dweezil's playing. He uses 80's shredder "tricks" like tremelo picking pentatonic scales and Van Halen-like tapping. He's certainly capable of more though. You're right about his playing Frank's music. I saw Zappa Plays Zappa in July 2007 and his playing was flawless. Unlike his dad though, Dweezil seems to prefer learning a part, perfecting it and sticking to it. He's not very adventurous as an improviser or soloist. I think of Dweezil similar to how Frank viewed Vai- a "stunt guitarist". Dweezil learning the fast suptuplets from Inca Roads on guitar is pretty impressive, I'll admit.
Why are people bagging Jack Black so hard in the comments, wtf? His whole shtick is being like, a parody-metalhead but whos still actually good, how do you people not know this? I love both Zappa and Tenacious D because they crack me up, by the way. Humor belongs in music.
When your dad's one of the best guitarists to have lived, and is teaching you to play along, with folks like steve vai. you're probably going to end up being pretty good.
@Keith Long Brad was my favorite Ozzy guitarist after Randy. Sick player. I actually prefer Brad's take on Sabbath over Randy. Randy hated Sabbath so it makes sense he kinda got sloppy (for Randy) on those old tunes.
Nothing better than listening to a cool video, and reading the comments from cluelss internet poopsticks proclaiming 'it sucks'. You all gargle mayonnaise.
Dweezil has matured into a unbelievably fantastic musician who plays guitar; i agree early on he was a boring jukebox of shredder licks, his journey into his fathers stylings has created this amalgamation of one of the finest guitar heroes we have today. I too first thought his lack of stage antics was lacking, but now I really like his calm character and I feel he paradoxically has stage presence because of it, because he lets his guitar do the talking. Bravo Dweezil
Martin Rauch I know I'm late for this comment section I can't name one guitarist who can replicate Frank's guitar solos and not to mention his stage presence
Jack black is great and I think he did a wonderful job for being "on the spot." He's a jokester, but he definitely has vocal talent hiding underneath all that.
Bruce Copperfield yes damn all the haters, jack is a great actors and a great singer, he makes funny sound, and remains me of captain beefheart , héhé some mix of ozzy Osborne, meatloaf and captain beefheart, he makes rock n roll fun and that s good , cuz we gat bored of all those star that never smile and look serious like if rock was for gloomy serious dudes
Dweezil is having a blast here. Everyone knows what he is able to do and what he does, playing covers with a comedian is no big deal. He also nailed that solo to the wall.
Been watching Dweezil videos lately and the guy is just a monster guitar player. Dude can play anything... and it's effortless. Should be mentioned among the best
I run three companies and if Dweezil would allow me I would get someone or someone's to take my place and be willing to follow him around and just carry his guitar cases... and make him laugh like a motherfuker. I would do that just to hear him play. For 25+ years he's Magic on the axe. A virtuoso. Period!
My God!!!! no song sounds better than this when the rythym kicks in !! NO SONG!!! Your missed so deeply Master Randy. He will never grow old as some that stay do.
Dweezil shredded that solo so effortlessly that I literally feel like I could go pick up my guitar and play it no sweat. I however know that's absolutely not true.
Dweezil is amazing! If you haven't seen ZPZ or didn't know he's out there doing homage to FZ's music, you're missing out! But...what makes this video interesting & exceptional is his amp. Check it out....a Peavey Wiggy. Rare as they come and designed by Dweezeil with Peavey engineers. One of a kind...
once again jack gives it the beans. ok his vocals are a bit ropey in places but who gives a shit. he clearly had fun and so did everyone else apart from the few haters
The original purpose of auto-tune was as a pitch correction tool for when singers didn't hit their notes accurately in the studio. It was only afterwards that Cher used it as an actual vocal effect, and then of course every rap producer in the world picked up on it. And as I understand, yes, many singers do use some kind of pitch correction when they are singing live on stage nowadays as well.
Oh he has done plenty of own stuff and with his brother Ahmet also. The band's called Z and pulled out a couple of amazing and weird records during the 90's, plus you have his solo albums. Check out his discography and you will find some really interesting things, he's definitely an incredible guitar player. I like Jack Black but I came here because of Dweezil.
I had to watch this after seeing the Rhasta Strat on Norman's Rare Guitars too. Zappa playing Randy Rhodes licks on EVH's guitar all ties together perfectly in that the story goes that when Van Halen opened for Back Sabbath in 1978, Ozzy got the idea that he could make some fresher music on his own and he recruited two young California musicians, Rhodes and Rudy Sarzo, who played more like Eddie Van Halen than Tony Iommi and the rest is history.
dweezil plays it like it's nothing.true talent.
Yes great playing
he's amazing
Are you a guitarist,just wondering, I've been at it for 38years, started at 12,,,,I love the old hairbands still rocking out to SKID ROW, POISON,WARRENT,LOL
Still not as good as Warren Cuccurullo
It's genetic.
Dweezil Zappa is a beast on guitar!
Yes he is
danh5150 If you think he is good you should check his dad out. Oh and yes is he isn't he. :)

He was let down by the foldback engineer on the opening of the first verse, that's all. Jack's great.
The best band ever were the funniest too: The Beatles
Let them trash talk, this better than they could do. 👍
@itheuser First Metal is far from dead lmao
Humor Belongs in Music
It's hard to top Randy's solo, but Dweezil plays it closer than anyone that I have heard. He is an awesome guitar player.
Check out buckethead doing it 😊
@@SoupieGuitar thanks I will
Yeah and he nailed the fucking tone
When your dad's one of the best guitarists to have lived, and is teaching you to play along, with folks like steve vai. you're probably going to end up being pretty good.

God , Dweezil nailed that solo.
And he smartly chose a EVH Rasta , super rare to play Randy's solo.
He is an unbelievable and underrated guitar hero
Not a Rasta. THE RASTA.
That’s the same guitar Eddie used. Eddie gave it to dweezil Zappa after dweezil saw it sitting in the corner of 5150 studios
And a peavey wiggy amp that's pretty damn rare as well
After playing Frank's music, this is a walk in the park for Dweezil. He's a flat out stud on guitar an all around great guy to boot.
Dweezil nailed it
Nothing better than listening to a cool video, and reading the comments from cluelss internet poopsticks proclaiming 'it sucks'. You all gargle mayonnaise.
lol loved the beelzeboss refference
I understood that refference and i love it
...the gargle mayonnaise reference its all....!! jajaja
Matt Channing I understood the reference but after listening to Smashing Pumpkins I will
Lol 🍆

Martin Rauch arrived
Agreed. No other 18 year olds I know except for my best friend know about Zappa sadly
Kinda ironic, a Randy Rhodes song being played on Eddie Van Halen’s guitar, I dig it
And played by the son of Frank Zappa
Please explain the irony?
@@pdkeast I assume Alex Logan is reffering to the low profile rivalry between EVH and RR.
Dweezil 'The Ripper' Zappa.
Holy fuck! Dweezil ripped my flesh.
Like a weisel?
Just like a Telefunken U-47......with leather
Dweezil “weasels ripped my flesh” Zappa
Who’s here after Dweezil Zappa showed off the EVH “Rasta” guitar on All Guitar Network?
Man, Dweezil can flat out play! Amazing as always.
dweezil killed it. nice job
Dweezil is the man. Monstrous player.
Jack black is great and I think he did a wonderful job for being "on the spot." He's a jokester, but he definitely has vocal talent hiding underneath all that.
Dweezel's tone is incredible.
Dweezil is playing Eddie Van Halen’s Rasta guitar. Just saw the video of him explaining how he came to possess it.
Eddie's Rasta guitar!!!
How cool is it to have that guitar!
Jack is epic, he is true musician, fuck all the haters!
Bruce Copperfield I love the guy, but he can't sing for shit. No hate here.
chong3r Did you ever listened to Tenacious D? Jack got awesome vocal.
yeah mate, i just meant on the particular night, he was rough. Still jealous it wasn't me though up there.
Bruce Copperfield yes damn all the haters, jack is a great actors and a great singer, he makes funny sound, and remains me of captain beefheart , héhé some mix of ozzy Osborne, meatloaf and captain beefheart, he makes rock n roll fun and that s good , cuz we gat bored of all those star that never smile and look serious like if rock was for gloomy serious dudes
+chong3r That didn't stop Ozzy.
Dweezil is having a blast here. Everyone knows what he is able to do and what he does, playing covers with a comedian is no big deal. He also nailed that solo to the wall.
Dweezil rocking the Rhoads! Nailed it. New respect for his skills.
Been watching Dweezil videos lately and the guy is just a monster guitar player. Dude can play anything... and it's effortless. Should be mentioned among the best
Lmao "Don't know the lyrics, I sing anyway". 😂
Kyle's so adorable when he dances
Dweezil rocked some Randy!:)
Deewzil playing Eddie Van Halen's Rasta Guitar nice
if i could play like dweezil life would be amazing.
Dweezil zappa fenomenal!!!
Epic. And Dweezil is a sick guitarist!!!
Is nobody gonna talk about how Kyle Gass just stands there like a grandpa with dementia who wandered off somewhere and got lost 🤣🤣🤣🤣
But hey!
He's the one who got the chicks.
Gotta love both of these guys. All due respect to Dweezils guitar skills. I'm sure he can play those Randy Rhoads riffs in his sleep! 👍
I run three companies and if Dweezil would allow me I would get someone or someone's to take my place and be willing to follow him around and just carry his guitar cases... and make him laugh like a motherfuker. I would do that just to hear him play. For 25+ years he's Magic on the axe. A virtuoso. Period!
Wish Frank was still with us. He get a good laugh.
I just love Dweezil's smile :D He is clearly having so much fun :D
Love Jack B So Talented
the only version of crazy train I will listen to TO DATE!!!!
So awsome that he used it on this....
My God!!!! no song sounds better than this when the rythym kicks in !! NO SONG!!! Your missed so deeply Master Randy. He will never grow old as some that stay do.
killer tone dweezil!
Dweezil shredded that solo so effortlessly that I literally feel like I could go pick up my guitar and play it no sweat. I however know that's absolutely not true.
my thoughts exactly
This is easily the greatest video on the internet.
I saw DWEEZ in LA 2 months ago ...Saw his dad SO MANY times ... They are having a blast ....Jack is a freakin nut ! REMEMBER when things were fun ?
Man...I showed this to a friend who sadly passed last year but truly enjoyed this awesome collaboration...may the voice/he live on \m/
perfect guitar!
That's life kids. Enjoy it
Makes me realize how good Randy Rhodes was. Mad props to Zappa
Dweezil you are badass! You can jam! 🙂👍🤘
Dweezil holy shit he’s phenomenal
Dweezil is amazing! If you haven't seen ZPZ or didn't know he's out there doing homage to FZ's music, you're missing out! But...what makes this video interesting & exceptional is his amp. Check it out....a Peavey Wiggy. Rare as they come and designed by Dweezeil with Peavey engineers. One of a kind...
eddie would be proud , rockin the rasta
I always feel bad for kg when he is sitting in the background and back is just being funny as shit. We love you too kage.
Dweezil and Jack......... what a GREAT pick me up! Just what I needed to see tonite!
That was truly entertaining and DZ was perfection.
Dweezil is awesome 👌
Dweezil playing Randy on a guitar that was given to him by Eddie. Very cool.
LOVE D and Z. Frank!!!!
once again jack gives it the beans. ok his vocals are a bit ropey in places but who gives a shit. he clearly had fun and so did everyone else apart from the few haters
well said. The D is entertaining, haters must face this and forever live with the D tattoo
Dweezel is the master.Father to son.straight up!truth.
Dweezil is a guitar master. Daddy would be proud.
That hit the spot ! those rolls were fu*king amazing .
jack rules
zappa.. so good looking
Dweez with the solo on the super strat! Frank had some good DNA.
Solo was a bit shit though
Classic. And Dweezil rips. Just like his old man. RIP.
great drumming too
this is as rock n roll as it gets, if you know what you're looking at!
Dweezil has some chops!!
Dweezil totally nailed it!
Let's not forget how Awesome Dweezil Zappa is. Damn!!
The amazing Joe Travers on the drumkit! Hell yeah!
Awesome Gods of rock 'n' roll!!!
Can't help but smile at this crzy shit
Hey, Jack is using NO teleprompter, and NO auto tune..unlike some other "frontmen?"
+trowerz true
auto tune? nobody thought he was using auto tune.
Ozzy is why Auto tune was made.
Entropy Yeah, except Ozzy doesn't use autotune....
The original purpose of auto-tune was as a pitch correction tool for when singers didn't hit their notes accurately in the studio. It was only afterwards that Cher used it as an actual vocal effect, and then of course every rap producer in the world picked up on it. And as I understand, yes, many singers do use some kind of pitch correction when they are singing live on stage nowadays as well.
he looks damn comfortable with that guitar
Came for the comedy, stayed for the solo! Spot on!
This is great, Dweezil is the man.
Oh he has done plenty of own stuff and with his brother Ahmet also. The band's called Z and pulled out a couple of amazing and weird records during the 90's, plus you have his solo albums. Check out his discography and you will find some really interesting things, he's definitely an incredible guitar player. I like Jack Black but I came here because of Dweezil.
Love it dweezil playing Eddie Van Halens "rasta" guitar
And Joe Travers on drums.....superb stuff...zappa plays zappa, get to see them..
awesome..just awesome
Meglio di così si muore..... Hahahaha fantastici! 🇮🇹✌🏻
JACK BLACK IS A SUPER METAL FAN. I LOVE HOW HE ENJOYS THE SHIT OUT OF THIS.
Dweezil is the best.
I thought Ozzy's voice would be missed, but it sure is here.
I had to watch this after seeing the Rhasta Strat on Norman's Rare Guitars too. Zappa playing Randy Rhodes licks on EVH's guitar all ties together perfectly in that the story goes that when Van Halen opened for Back Sabbath in 1978, Ozzy got the idea that he could make some fresher music on his own and he recruited two young California musicians, Rhodes and Rudy Sarzo, who played more like Eddie Van Halen than Tony Iommi and the rest is history.
... amazing!
zappa has got an awesome sound.
Dweezle with the Eddie V guitar!
This fella Jack Black is on the right train.
Jack Rocks, Dweezil Rips! Noiiice!
I think a saxaboom solo would've been the perfect cherry on top.
Dweezil absolutely killed it ! Playing EVH’s actual Rasta guitar. This was so fun to watch thanks for posting : )
Jac k Black… one of the funniest dudes in rock.
Up there with Guest and crew in Spianla Tap.
I never thought of it that way, but you're right...nice comparison!
Fuckit... I watched the whole thing so I must have been entertained lol
Man he nailed the guitar..... almost!
Dweezil makes it look so easy.
Don't turn around, Dweezil!
I just noticed that was The mother fuckin' Bass Cowboy Mark Meadows on bass...that dude is fucking awesome!
Nice to see jack black is a Zappa fan
