• Total Recall First Tim... - Hudba
I had my musical epiphany at 13 years old in 1973 when Frank came out and hit the first note of Penguins in Bondage. I've seen Uncle Frank 35 times from 73-88 almost all in NYC on Halloweens, the Christmas shows,the Pier show,and stood 3rd row right in front of Frank for his most famous concert at the Ritz In Greenwich Village,NYC. Music is my religion and and Frank Zapa is my God. Never expect you think where Frank's gonna go, it takes decades. Greatest musicalmind to ever walk this Earth.Statue in Batimore were he was born.
That guitar solo was some kind of cosmic event.
Among Frank's best solos. It's my favorite.
One of Zappas classic solos.
Ive got to see Frank Live every year since the late 70s. Sometimes two shows on the same night. The songs were always different along with the audience participation segment. Really funny and fun stuff!.The Halloween shows were epic. The most amazing part of the shows was when Frank would put on his guitar, stand up front, and just solo! You would have loved seeing the shows live. I love that you get it! The music. We are the other people!
Wow... What a trip. Love it.
Zappa was filth
Go to see Dweezil Zappa do his Zappa Plays Zappa shows. It’s not Frank but the music is played very very faithfully to the spirit of this genius!
He’s insulting losers then showing off his genius abilities
Sheik Yerbouti is one of Frank's most accessible and fun albums. Variety! "Rat Tomago", "City of Tiny Lites", "Wild Love", and the Euro club hit "Bobby Brown Goes Down" are some standouts.
Lol, love the guy tring to shake his head to a rythm for a min and then his expression going no no no wtf is going on here ? :p
When the lead work and keyboard melody meet it always sends a shiver down my spine.
I think it's Tommy Mars doing the funny voices.
The Shiek Yerbouti "LP" has some of the best mixing on any lp you will find. There are sections of live instrumentation over studio pieces and multiple instruments from various places and times mixed together. It boggles the mind when you read the sleevenotes.
It is (kinda) 3 songs - the basic track is live. The intro and outro have monstro vocals and instrumental overdubs - mostly by Tommy, but with keys/acoustic guitar and percussion... The solo synth stuff isn't just Tommy overdubbing, but the compositional harmonies, melodies and stuff are his, also (written & played by him). The live solo is from (+?) two different solos, but with studio stuff added (and other live stuff subtracted, or at least, heavily edited - bass and drums re-arranged). And the link section between the 1st verse and the main (?live) solo - where it's just Frank and percussion/synth stuff, that just brings in the tension - a sort of musique concrete for rock folks - quite sinister when you realize that the song (lyric) is a roast on Tommy - who is also Frank's main contributor to get the song to where it winds up.
@@stueyapstuey4235 This was one of the 1st Zappa lps along with "Hot Rats", "YAWYI" and "The Grand Wazoo".
Zappa was garbage
So terrible that you took time to seek out his work to shit on it. It's clearly not for everyone, but like Paul McCartney haters, Zappa haters are a dedicated and vocal bunch.@@marlon-jl4ge
Conceptual continuity mentioning pajamas
One of my favorite guitar solos of all time with an intro (not your intro) two main parts and a so called coda. Magnificent. All this time with all the variations he remained very close to the basic theme
... and mine - and the guitar solo in Montana... plus a few others..!!
You'll be listening to this again. And again ....
one of franks best solos
Superb track 👌
Thanks mate! And remember.....never smoke in pyjamas 😊
So amazing! FZ was the most musically creative and complex mind in our lifetimes! And, his injection of humor and/or satire in his music is astounding (and funny) as well!
The lyric was a mean roast on the keyboard player... for reasons (!?)..... but, the keyboard player more than redeemed himself.
This is one of my favorite got the album when it cam out
I had a Japanese Master Sound copy of Shiek Yebouti. When I'm So Cute finished you could hear someone say "Did you just record that?" I read somewhere the song was part of the sound check.
This song is one of his best works.
Now, imagine being at one of Zappa's concerts tripping on some good acid.
I can see this is recalibrating your approach to music..........MEGA!
Liner notes stated that this guitar solo, was recorded on four track.
In the middle of a snow storm, inside a VW van.😮
Incredible stuff. There's a few recordings of this song, all live as far as I know (this one has studio overdubs though) and he improvises different solos each time.
Such a great great tune.
Frank is great and every thing... but the drums, the drummer, absolutely kills this track!
Suprise (not really) Terry B. is terrorizing the drum kit, the stage, and the mic at the end. This is what music's all about folks
Love zappa solo❤❤❤❤❤❤
Frank isn't insulting *us*. The story of the lyrics is that one of the band members, possibly Tommy Mars, screwed up during a sound check and Frank came in the next day and handed over these lyrics. It was directed at one of two band members but never certain which one. That’s the story, anyway.
C'mon... haven't you ever known someone like that? A person that ... if they had to live on there own... or if they found themselves without a home... without Monmmy... they'd be fucked? A person that would not survive on the streets? You never met anyone like that?
I have.
During the solo, listen to what the drums, bass, and keyboards are doing. There is such layering and diversity of approach. Keep in mind, this is a genius composer who doesn't leave anything to chance, unless he plans "chance" into the music. He'll often use polyrhthms in which he may have the band play in two, three, or even four different key signatures. The guy was off the charts. Once I listened to him, I was spoiled beyond belief. Who else could I listen to after experiencing Frank'? All the rest was so staid, boring, and one dimensional. Sure miss him.
Quantum frequecies
Zappa was filth
@@marlon-jl4ge nevermind the filth. It's the angry midgets with measuring sticks we gotta pay attention to.
cardiacs
Zappa was last shit
GenZ needs to take this message to heart.
It's a wake-up call. Frank is talking to a person that has nothing going for him through his own fault. He's wasting time and still not employed and lazy to boot (Many GenZ)...he's telling him that his only option is to live with his Mama!
The lyrics were meant to address Bianca Jaegger, Mick's wife at the time. She was a Nicaraguan girl from a wealthy family, and Managua is that country capital.
Sheik Yerbouti was one of my favorite albums of all time. To be honest this was my second least favirite on the album ... but the whole album is gold. Rat Tomago is a standout solo of all time for me, almost a self parody of Franks own melodic lead style. That one is well worth a reaction, no one else has yet as far as i'm aware.
Rat tomago is the shit!!!! Fuck eberyone else!!! Nobidy has frank balls when it comes to guitar!!!!
FZ, the Maestro. Maybe You should stay w Yo mama.
while originally the “target” was Tommy Mars for failing to have *Little House I Used to Live In* memorized one day, I take it as for all of us hardcore musicians, _cause if you play the game, you will get beat_ … NB: the beauty of the lick that follows that line
This is my favorite solo from Frank. You should have have seen him live on acid. The whole audience was on acid at the Uptown Theater in Chicago when I seen him in the 70's.
This solo is so strong because Frankie could rely on his band members. "The whole audience was on acid at the Uptown Theater in Chicago when I seen him in the 70's." I might have enjoyed such an experience.
@@popogast Great seats for 7 bucks or so.
Frank never ever done drugs
@@Michael-zg8qw No, he didn't. His fans sure did tho.
Reportedly the bulk of the guitar solo comes from a gig in Neunkirchen, and another part comes from a soundcheck - we don't unfortunately have proof. In any case there was, as others have noted, some xenochrony and a lot of overdubbing (from Tommy Mars' corner) after the fact. Indeed the keyboardist used to say that the overdub session was one of the most challenging moments of his musical life, because of the amount of harmonic and rhythmic clashes (resulting from Frank's edit) that he had to cover up and/or "resolve".
Lyric - This is the archetypal diss track that people actually want to be the subject of - the accepted story is that - that man again - Tommy Mars was the song's target, but at times Adrian Belew and an unnamed roadie have been cited. (Adrian definitely became the subject at a gig in Brussels, where Frank dropped in a reference to ABs' imminent "defection" to join David Bowie's band).
Apart from the obvious studio overdubs:-
"Yo' Mama" Vocal sections February 28, 1978 - Hammersmith Odeon, London, UK; Guitar solo: February 25, 1978 - Hemmerleinhalle, Neunkirchen am Brand, Germany; Part of the backing track for the solo: January 27, 1978 - Hammersmith Odeon, London, UK.
Love all the accurate info here you two,....Tommy Mars supposedly reverse-engineered new background over existing solos, ..seems like both Frank and the arraighnment are purposely non-rhythmic until the E/B chords
I think this song affects people different depending mainly if are hearing it while you are an adult still living with yo momma
Nice name I must assume it's a shout to Primus
Zappa was garbage
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@marlon-jl4ge well, why not? Can't live without it. That's what makes America Great.
He was last shit 🤣🤣
Managua it’s the capital of Nicaragua 🇳🇮 in Central America!!
Ma ma ! Its exactly today! Living in parents basements today, dodging failed college loans, insted of just buckling dkwn n getring a fuckin job,
Adrian Belew sprinkled electric gases to perfection no doubt. Don't be insulted. The lyrics could also apply to an 80 year old man or woman who at did at one point or perhaps still is riding life's crutches with just enough noticeable self-depreciation to validate the reason for slipping gears driving the life of somebody else's car.
Shit ugly zappa looked like a bum at the end 🤣 🤣 🤣
This was an instant favorite for me. In fact I quoted it in my Senior yearbook in 1980. One of the things i like most, is that it's a perfect example of what it was like to see Frank live. Your brain is trying to figure out how the song got where it is, and is this even still the same song? Next thing you know he's into a big beautiful melodic section, playing directly along with the keyboards (playing horn section parts!), and then out of nowhere, back into the song. I used to describe seeing FZ as like being a kid at a magic show. You just had no idea what was happening, or where it was going, or how the hell these guys on stage were doing this! I could tell you were reading from the original Liner Notes for the lyrics, because I remember the typo on Managua being Mangua. Not a bad memory for a 60 year old, huh?
Ditto I’ll be 60 this year and I know exactly what your talking about. Me and my girlfriend listened to this song all the time about 1980
Mr slop
Or “sloop John B”
I bet nobody has made that analogy before ha ha ha
Anyway I can tell you’re a fart smeller
I mean a smart feller
So you posted this eight months ago so you already know about Frank Zappa his repertoire is great and best including jazz and doo-wop and everything in between I would just suggest just keep exploring his repertoire like the rest of us have done it’s so vast I can’t even make a suggestion about where to start but
I think you know that already
I love your reactions
It's interesting to watch young people try to get FZ. I admire that you are trying. FZ loved to offend and insult the silliness of the times
Imagine what he wold think of people today....lol
I never thought of the lyrics being directed at the audience. He's speaking to a type. A person who lives with their Mama way past the time when they should. Not made for being out in the streets. Maybe you're being satirical though...
Funny lyric considering Frank was terrible in the kitchen. I can't remember exactly where I read this but his skills were apparently limited to the coffee machine (duh) and turning hot dogs over the stove like it was an open fire...!
I hate cooking too. I'd rather wear prison striped pajamas.
Zappa looked like a bum at the end 🤣 🤣 🤣
Check out CZcams or other forms like that I'm an old guy I don't know but Frank Zappa was did a guest spot on Miami Vice and some game shows even way back in the sixties the guy was all over the place he was on other commercial type talk shows and I'm trying to build his career and what was the first one Ed Sullivan he played a bicycle as an instrument I think it was Ed Sullivan it was crazy
Funny how all the "reaction video" youtubers adopt the same facial expressions...😁
Your name backwards is nohJ polS
daz boo
Zappa was garbage
16:25 If You're American and don't know where Managua is Your geographic knowledge is poor.
Very strange you don't understand the lyrics 😅 they're straightforward and very simple... Nothing like an insult 😑.
It's just about a Mama's boy...
