Just love Terry Bozzio so much. Insane drum skills.
Terry is an amazing storyteller.
Impressive drummer/A true legend - Adorable man.
I was very impressed with Mr. Bozzio's humility - giving credit to Zappa for the composition and shinning a light on Vinnie Colaiuta for playing it later at his audition to join the Zappa band - clearly Mr Bozzio is one of the great drummers of modern music - otherwise he would not have been in the Zappa band (1) to inspire Frank to write the piece and (2) be the first man to perform it - very nice interview - thank you for posting this - and thank you Mr. Bozzio for sharing.
Love terry miss Frank!
Fabulous! Could it get any better? Terry is awesome! He played drums for Frank on 26 of his albums.
This comment just made my birthday feel complete today! It's awesome that you know that about Terry! He's definitely my favorite drummer in the music industry. Such a cool guy!
This number is only good if you include lots of bootlegs because Terry worked with FZ from 1976 to 1979 and plays on 6 official releases (5 studio albums and one live).
@@danielg335 He was the drummer from 75 to 77, that's it. He did vocals on some stuff later. Frank didn't make albums the way most other artists do, so it's misleading in many cases to say that Bozzio or others did an album or played on an album. He took lots of material on tape including live stuff and made albums out of it later, including often putting one or two tracks from one era on an album of mostly other eras.
Man...I have no words for except, thank you! Thank you for make our lives greater in this planet.
Maybe it's difficult to understand the impact and inspiration that
your talent have on us, amateur musicians.
Thanks again for sharing your time..and sorry for my poor English..
I tell you what old boy. Your english is to a higher standard than many people born and bred here.Take a bit of advice from me. As english is not your mother tongue , never apologize for it. Rather, ask the person who criticises your english this one question. " Do you speak my language?"
99% of them will have to admid that they do not. Therefor your knowledge of language is superior to theirs. So whu should you apologize for being more knowledgeable than them?
Bless you my friend, and may you live a ling and happy life.
In 1986, the band I roadied for in L.A. opened for a band called Burning Sensations at either the Roxy or the Whisky (I can't remember which one). The drummer for Burning Sensations was none other than Terry Bozzio. I believe it was right after Missing Persons broke up... The last time I saw him was with Jeff Beck and Tony Hymas in 2003, they were amazing!
Brilliant and well said Terry you are also a big part of the Zappa inspiration, a big thanks for the tribute to Frank Z !!!
So inspiring! Thank you for sharing Mr Bozzio!
Fuckin love Terry and his work with Frank. He may be my favorite drummer that Frank ever had.
Terry was getting a little emotional, love him!
Terry got me a tad emotional about Frank when his eyes welled up!
frank stayed true to his music never sold out to commercial industry
And when he wrote Valley Girl as satire and it became popular he hated it.
Frank was his own industry.
Anyone hear of a band called "Vulfpeck"? czcams.com/video/LB1sTH7bUQ4/video.html Here is an awesome interview by the band leader. Jack Stratton.
Terry - I love the love you have for FZ and his music.
Nice to see Terry! The band(s) when he was drummer have always been my favorite.
Thank you Frank. Thank you Terry. Music is the BEST...
just on a personal level, i love the sound of Terry’s playing more than anyone else’s. the combination of immense skill and his charm and personality just gets me all the time. thanks for your talent Terry x
May you rest in peace Frank we miss you
you and bill Bruford are the most influential drummers on my life. Thank you for everything that you've done for me and the drumming community as a whole.
I remember hearing the Black Page for the the 1st time as a Teenager and thought......
WTF????
how can a guy play this?
Hearing the constant steady hi hat
AND THEN have a Percussionist play EXACTLY along with it.
Obviously it was chart written but I NEVER heard drumming so TIGHT.
Awe inspiring to this day.
🎯🤘❤
(Got that very FZ mustache & goatee Tattoo as well)
The BOZZIO LEVIN STEVENS (just 2 albums) is a must for any musician and for a drummer!
Terry Bozzio; what a gentleman! Hats off from Sweden.
Holy dog mess I want that snare! Aesthetically it is unreal I love the trademark mustache and soul patch. Frank was always smoke in his Winston cigarettes and mega cup of coffee. I've never seen at snare dedicated So well 2 a man as incredible as Frank Zappa just to put the iconic black page note-for-note electronically etched onto that snare is ingenious absolutely touching. It certainly is a poignant Tribute to The Genius of Frank Zappa that song right there in a nutshell is what Frank's all about. That be cool to etch a little pumpkin saying ARF! and a cat freaking out speaking in Cantonese. Wow Vinnie colaiuta sight-read the black page to get the gig with Frank omigod imagine how nerve-racking he's a master as well. You had to be the best to be a Zappa drummer and you better be able to read music very well and be able to read complex music like the black page if you can't he would chew you up and spit you out even Jeff Pacaro was wanted by Frank Zappa but Frank did not know that Jeff could not read music I don't know if that would have mattered they would have just jammed it first but Frank was intrigued by him and Jeff shied away he wanted nothing to do with it as much as he loved Frank and his music it scared him to death to sight-read and try to play the part with Frank and he is a top-notch elite drummer. Anyway🤔 you're the man Terry before Vinnie there was Bozzio
I've come to realise what a great musician but also what a great bloke our Terry is - or 'Tel' as he would be over here in Blighty.
Yes, thank you, Frank, for your incredible music!
I want that snare so bad...damn!
I always preferred the song as a pure drum solo, but I've warmed to the melody more now. Great stuff!
Wow. Terry is just all around Top Shelf. He's the best.
Thank you Sir !
Terry, your playing was always top notch. And your ability to play the Black page impresses the heck outta me. It must have been a gas playing with Frank onstage or at practice. I'm very happy for you because you had that experrience, sir.
Terry is always very humble . Great player .
God bless you !
Happy Birthday Terry!
My first Zappa gig was the Glasgow Apollo in 1977 with Bozzio on the kit! A baptism of fire, I can tell you!
The 2nd was Knebworth in '79 with Vinnie Colaiuta. The original Mothers were great, but not a patch on FZ's 70's ensembles!
Magnificosssss Terry Genius !
Great drummer!
Always loved the soul of FZ
I was checking foundation supports on a mobile home in beautiful Visalia California {ahem] on chatting with this lovely woman in her living room, I see a tribute of sorts to the Great Terry !!!! Kinda blows me away as she was clearly a senior woman...... I had to ask..... GRANDMA !!!! too fuckin cool...made my day God Bless Her.
His Grandma?
Can we see part 2 where he plays it please!😁👍
Cool. One or two of the shots from above that huge kit are photographic works of art. Just had an idea for a video, for which I wish I had 1/100% of the knowledge and skills necessary to produce, of seeing "The Black Page" played on the kit, from above, with the drums somehow highlighted on each strike. A visual and aural work of art. I can almost sorta' picture it in my mind...
Weird... for some reason the title of this video and the thumbnail of him behind his kit made me think he was going to play it or a new interpretation/inspiration. It’s a tribute sure, but seems more like a commercial
Yeah agreed. I was thinking it would be an actual musical tribute. Bit deceptive but still interesting. I love some of Zappa's music, but have to admit this one is more weird than I can deal with.
It *is* a commercial.
@@DerEchteBold Terry could use a few more drums and cymbals.
@@darioinfini Yeah. It's too sophisticated for some
@@imaseeker100 No need to be snarky bruv. I respect Buckethead too but while incredibly technical and difficult, a large swath of his stuff is boring and unlistenable. He's capable of incredible work like Zappa, but its easy to get lost in the weeds when you're that gifted.
He's so cuuute.
I hit puberty when Missing Persons was peaking. I was in marching band and I remember arguing with first snare about FZ and Terry 🤣🤣🙈 Terry was my permission to apply percussion differently and Frank was my permission to hear it differently.
I had always heard that Vinnie played it from memory on his audition because he'd already learned it.
Wonderful! What a tribute!!
Awesome ❤️
Great feature Terry!
He's so cute! He's so cute! He's so cute!
This is a piece I continually work on. Always.
Vinnie had to sightread it but played it from memory and frank could tell so he made him sightread duprees paradise i think?
Pedro's Dowry
@@enggopah it was one or the other thx for correction
*At the **1:44** mark..., Vinnie remembers it slightly differently...,*
*...as can be seen and heard here...*
*czcams.com/video/TRbabZxVeHQ/video.html*
*It's cool that Frank would first try to use The Black Page to test him...,*
*...and that Vinnie then turned his head and started playing it from memory...*
What do you think about this Bozzio!! 😍👍
And there's 249 still sitting on the shelf..
Terry drumming BOSS-IO
Thanks for posting this.
Frank was totally misunderstood.
But, if you got Frank.
You went to another dimension, that very few, will ever have the opportunity experience.
Is this still available for sale still?
I want one.......
I want one for Christmas!
oooh, punky
I have one thing in common with Terry....
may i purchase one
They couldn't even get as many comments on this video as they made black page snares. 42 comments.
How much is this snare ?? Looks like $900/$1500 !! Im sure it sounds great.....
Will 8 lug snare True Hoops be an option now?
I made my kitchen cabinets out of birdseye! Nice style terry!
Edit: you're still cute
Play the golden dragon please.
And this now sells for..?
Little Terry "ted" Bozzio..... leave your pickle alone
Dale, would you please come up here and hold my pickle to satisfy this man ? Lol
Boz, il aurait du être cuisinier !
Yeah. FZ wouldn’t make fun of this AT ALL!🙄
You're so cute 😁
If it's cool with you I would like to use the audio clip for my radio show as I pay tribute to Frank this month. we also celebrate Frank every year at Halloween with Zappathon on wusb.fm New York. I HOST WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX.I'D LOVE TO TALK TO YOU SOMETIME . DROP ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE THROUGH FACEBOOK?
I think it's funny Frank had a habit of mispronouncing Terry's name.
Didn't Vinnie gig with Frank before!! Terry?
I heard Chad had to sight read it.
vinnie had to sight read it too in his audition, vinnie haven't gig'd with frank yet at that point, so yeah
Vinnie was after Terry, before Chad. He actually was in Zappa's band twice, sort of - he left to record with Gino Vanelli (I think), during which Zappa auditioned new drummers. The gig was offered to John Riley, but Riley decided he wanted to stick to playing jazz. I don't know if Vinnie came back before Zappa found another drummer, or if Zappa got one and he didn't work out, but Vinnie returned soon after.
Vinnie played The Black Page from memory at his audition (he transcribed it on his own, well before the audition). I think Zappa had him sight read Pedro's Dowry in its place.
David Logeman filled in while Coluita left, briefly.
Bozzio. I love that name. Not irish.
You are what you is.! I mean how could Frank sellout you got to keep yourself real he was signed 2 Warner Brothers for 8 f****** years.
But Frank stayed true to the music he was doing and what he envisioned in the first place he never deviated from the path that he created. But that was his whole point was to deviate from the norm and not do things the normal way. Frank's way on barking pumpkin records. See Frank like the weird and when people called him out it just filled him with even more zany music like Village of the Sun. He had to turn music on its head & and rearrange its face. c why not no one was touching what he was doing so why not take advantage of a pair of zircon encrusted tweezers in your hand! Just like a penguin in bondage boy oh yeah oh yeah. Wind up workin in a gas station.... Bobby Brown.
What an ugly looking snare LOL
As tribute to one of the most creative musicians who ever lived, that's the best they can come up with?
He's not a drummer, he's just a collector of percussion instruments.
Too much focused on thinking about what else he should put on his equipment and then he forgot how to play the drums well! 😂🤣
I know he's a legend but it's still ridiculous for me, he plays drums with sensation not skills.
