      Are you kidding? FZ was on a par with Jimi Hendrix when it comes to guitar playing technique even if their personal styles are extremely different. Dwezill is definitely a fantastic guitarist too but imo there is no way and no utility to compare him with his father

    This is about as close as one can get to the 73/74 era band. Truly outstanding musicianship. I saw Frank's band at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago in early (March?) 73, again in October 73, and on Mother's day in 1974 (Show #2), and those performances blew my young teen-aged mind. Dweezil does his father proud.

    It was a moment of genius for Dweezil to come up with the idea of Zappa plays Zappa, his father's music is uniquely brilliant and needs to be preserved forever. It is also amazing that in the modern world of cut and paste same as everything else music that Dweezil can actually find musicians that can play his father's complex music to such a high standard.

    Saw Steve Vai, Adrian Belew and Frank Zappa
    On New years Eve 1978
    At UCLA Pauly Pavillion.
    With Terry Bozio on a drum kit from Mars..
    Inside a complete circle of drums on a sling seat, so he could jump up at start drum rolls ten feet in the air with his back to the audience.
    Needles to say. Three insane guitars and an insane drummer.
    What I saw and heard that NEW YEARS EVE night was something from another planet of human beings playing music that is nearly indescribable.
    This brought back a SAMPLE of what I heard that night.
    Cheers Zappa fiends there are not that many if us. But we who eere transported to alternate realities at Xappa shows know we experienced what few mortals can even IMAGINE let alone ne play..

    So, I love Franks music, my favorite period being the '74 band, but I love it all. Napolean really makes this performance, his voice and timing are as good as they were 40 years before this. If you have not heard YCDTOSA Vol. 2, you have to hear the Ultra-fast Village of the Sun / Echidna's ARf / Don't you ever wash that thing, it's stellar. I just Goggled him to see what he has been doing all these years, and found a solo album he released in 2002 called Balls, it's on UA-cam, it's really good !

    this is my favorite Zappa song. Love this version played by Dweezil excellently, and Steve Vai.

    And Scheila Gonzalez! She is an amazing performer! The second woman playing in a Zappa band after Ruth Underwood. Scheila would certainly be approved by Frank!

    The compositions are brilliant. The guitar of Vai is a deadly speed laser cutting you in little pieces and you feel nothing going wrong. It's about 1 Km far away walking on your road before you fall disintegrated into the crumbs of your body.

    When Dweezil and Vai went at it, I figured there were souls on the line.
