  • This is some very rare footage I just ran into thanks to "CosmikD" who took the time to rip it. This is some home video taken which captures Zappa amongst friends and musicians at a private gathering. I hope you enjoy this rare video and share it with other zappa heads!

    Breaking boundaries until the very end, Zappa's unique gift was to bring the best out of every musician he ever worked with. Still missed. Still loved.

    This is GREAT ! True musicianship . Un-spoiled, un adulterated. Given the opportunity, I would want to be surrounded by great artist's like this if I knew my day's were numbered. You were truly gifted & blessed Frank. We all miss you very much.

    It's really no surprise Frank knew the Chieftains. He's been a big fan of sea shanties for some time--the music and the lyrics. My uncle performs in a group that goes up and down the east coast. They've even performed for the President. I played in fife and drums. Old-school rocks.

    I did some investigating because I've just found out the music of Tuva is beautiful! I believe the song around the 45 min mark appears on the Live album by Huun-Huur-Tu the group that Frank worked with (or part of either way) The song around 45 min i believe is Ching Söörtukchülerining Yryzy / Song of the Caravan Drivers. And I also think that the song Calculus on Dance Me This (Which some of this material appears on) is the song directly after on Huur-Huun-Tu's Live album entitled Borbanngadyr. Frank Zappa is a God!

    What a legacy!

    Just reading some of the comments below one realizes (not least cos I feel exactly the same myself) that everyone seems to feel this deep. I can't say love... but a very familiar and warm feeling towards Frank. He is my main man. Only saw him once and think of it with reverence. Ironically though, Frank had nothing but contempt for his fans and it often would come through at his gigs. Not just the standing with his back to the audience and stuff like that but it is reported he was open with it

    one thing that we all love about frank is that he was always learning (about) music. he never hated anything until he found it trite and manipulating. i think bagpipes and eastern music were a big stretch and he didn't fight and played calm as if he was the student in many ways. i love fz. hope to see him in uranus. rock on!

    but seriously folks. it sounds like a very relaxed deep vibration of the vocal chords , very precise control of the guttural glottis sounds,(grunting) and a fully open nasal passages for resonance as well as manipulation and annunciation of words(?) with the help of the shape of the mouth. the real sound "magic" is when they are in harmony. just another way we humans have learned to use this thing called "voice". its all too much man.. ;) its all good.
