Nice! There's a cool story about Steve Vai getting his first gig when he transcribed a bunch of Zappa's stuff and sent it to him while Via was still a student at Berkeley School of Music. Zappa dug it and hired him n the early 80s.
I played a commercial gig a few days ago and “Son Of Mr. Green Genes” (from “Hot Rats” 1969) by Frank Zappa is one of the songs I had to learn 🎵I am pretty guilty of not having checked out Zappa’s discography a lot, but it must have been intimidating to play or tour with this guy. The sound of the band is what the late 60s and 70s zeitgeist is all about! This serves as a reminder for me to spend more time listening to Mr. Zappa! 💜 💜 💜
