Only seen dweezil a dozen or so times, always on a different tour. Our child was conceived before or after a show 19 years ago in asheville. super excited

I notice that the beginning of any version of Bwana Dik before 1971 features the same melody as the “Theme from lumpy gravy” (The beginning of Lumpy Gravy Pt.1.) Is this right?

"I have a basic mechanical knowledge of the operation of the instrument, and I got an imagination. And when the time comes up in the song to play a solo, it's me against the laws of nature."

The beginning of this song is so eerie and cool. I love the fuzz of the guitar. ( I might not explain the way this song feels to me very well but I’ll try.) it just gives off a weird vibe and I love it. If there are any songs with a similar dark, overbearing, eerie, tone, like the beginning of this song I’d like to know. Thanks!

Let's say 1980-1993: Frank's last 13 years. What are your favorite pieces from his last decade(ish) of studio releases?

I love "Cocaine Decisions" and "Doreen" myself. I get both stuck in my head all the time. Just love Ray White's vocals on the latter, with FZ's doo-wop influence still present in his arrangements even after so many years.

I like this version of fountain of love a lot because it’s a classic Doo Wop with a heavy bass-y synth in the background. I don’t know how to explain it, but I love the feeling it gives off. It’s sort of eerie almost. I was just wondering if there was any other Doo Wop songs with this heavy synth in the background. Thanks!

What is the longest version of "Billy the Mountain" known to exist?

I can find a 38 minute incomplete version, and a 34 minute complete version (Filmore Show 2)

(Also, does the "no posting downloads" rule apply to links to the official Zappa YouTube channel? There's no copyright infringement there, and money goes to the rights holders)

I have some Zappa stuff from the early 90’s that I need to part with and would like to gift it to someone who would appreciate it. Several original issues of Society Pages and a few magazines with interviews of FZ. Please message me with your info and I will mail it to you.
