Take Your Clothes off When You dance - Mothers of invention

http://www.katarsis-net.com.ar/downloads/the-real-frank-zappa-book.pdf to a free reading of the Real Frank Zappa book. This should be required reading in elementary school. He sure had America figured out. It was a long way from his early groups like the Blackouts.....to this album. A listen to this will set you straight...................nv

This runs fairly long............there will be a pop quiz after the lecture. There is some great stuff in the lecture. I am thinking about the time Frank was building bombs out in his garage using powdered ping pong balls and the bomb ignited nearly blowing his balls off and throwing him across the room. He also loved playing with the mercury in old thermometers. He blames this for his cancer..............nv

Frank's magum opus on touring. Ringo and Keith Moon make appearances. The orchestra had to play inside a barbed wire enclosure complete with watch towers. The other musician's rooms were bugged and they were often quite shocked to see things they had discussed privately the night before in the libretto the next day. I'm Stealing the Towels! nv

Maybe another pop quiz! nv

While prowling around for Hendrix/Zappa related material I found this. Recorded at the Fox Theater, Atlanta, accounts for the excellent sound quality. The Fox Atlanta is one of my favorite venues to catch a live show. I saw the Clash and the Sex Pistols there. So, here you have Adrian Belew and Frank paying tribute to Jimi on the 7th anniversary of Jimi's death. Dueling strats...........nv
Frank Zappa LIVE Jimi Hendrix Tribute 1977
FZ plays a Tribute to Jimi Hendrix with Adrian Belew on the seventh anniversary of his death. Recorded Live 9/18/1977 Fox Theater Atlanta, Georgia.


Frank talks about Hendrix and Buddy Miles visiting his house. Buddy nodded out and Jimi busted the crotch out of his jeans while showing off an intricate dance step. We go from Jimi needing someone to notate his music so it could be played by other instruments to the assassinations of 1968. Trending. nv

Frank plays Jimi some more..................nv
FRANK ZAPPA -- PURPLE HAZE AND SUNSHINE OF YOUR LOVE
WAY BACK A FEW YEARS AGO, MUST'VE BEEN BOUTS NOVEMBER, AN EVIL PRINCE, AND PART-TIME THEATRICAL CRITICIZER, HOPPED INTO HIS GLASS

Surprisingly, the poll results from the music page show 42% for the Mothers. Here you go, I little selection from 1967's Absolutely Free. Ruthann, did you know Frank? Hang out with him? Anyone see the Mothers live and/or have stories about them? I saw them a few times and had a great time. nv

Eric Clapton was also 'up there' in poll choices, so here you get both Mothers and Eric. I am including this as the whispering voice is Eric. He appears in many places on the album as he was a huge fan....nv

Nice interview from a couple weeks after the release of his second album, Axis - Bold As Love. The interviewer didn't prepare any questions so they just jammed. nv

Frank Zappa penned this legendary doo-wop single while he was still a teenager. Obviously he was quite enamored with the whole thing. nv
  • Terry Greene Oh, yeaah! Who wouldn't be enamored with El Monte Legion Stadium? Classic doo-wop written by superfreak El Zappa. This man was complicated. Although he appealed enormously to those who've had their minds altered by artful chemistry, he didn't do drugs. Not only that, if you worked for him, YOU didn't do drugs or he'd fire your ass on the spot. Just saying.
  • The Los Angeles Free Press 60's Music Site Reminds me of Jeff 'I'm stealing the towels' Simmons and Zappa having their rooms bugged and recording their private conversations and then adding the material to the libretto for the next day. He had everyone paranoid as hell. And the orchestra was flipping out having to file into work inside the barbwire with zappa conducting from a guard tower.
  • Terry Greene That's insane! Another example of truth is stranger than fiction. Zappa bugged his band members' rooms and used their paranoid conversations as lyrics set to music? No way! And the "... orchestra was flipping out having to file into work inside the barbwire with zappa conducting from a guard tower"? You're as crazy as he was (take as compliment). Please do elaborate. I'm all ears. Seriously.
"Something's gotta be done before America scarfs up the world and shits on it." Frank Zappa 1968 sorry too late frank. nv
Ah the long version of Orange County Lumber Truck. Wonder what the short version is like.....a vw bug with a stake bed? Enjoy cartoon Saturday. Looks like we're back in business.

In lieu of a usable version of Jeff Simmon's 'Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up' we'll let this song do....featuring Sugar Cane Harris.
