Frank Zappa

    Zitat von Herma

    Auf Charles Pfaden verdinge auch ich mich mal wieder als Grabschänder und buddel uralte Theads wieder heraus (während ich zugleich die Autokorrektur von Safari erschießen möchte).


    Ich höre mich gerade ebenfalls durch Zappas Musik. Hab mir das ja schon immer mal vorgenommen, wurde bisher aber immer wieder davon abgehalten. Sehr zu meinem Bedauern, denn das was mir bisher die Ohren verwöhnt, ist absolut großartig. Sei es Catholic Girls oder Baby Snakes oder halt auch He's so gay oder Porn war. Titties 'n Beer ist aber nochmal was ganz besonderes und ließ einige Lachtränchen mein wunderschönes Gesicht hinunterpurzeln.


    Du hast noch das völlig politisch inkorrekte und schön versaute Bobby Brown (goes down) vergessen:)

    Das Leben ist eine Illusion, hervorgerufen durch Alkoholmangel

    Von Zappa in NY gefällt mir allerdings musikalisch & textlich noch einer besser:
    The Illinois Enema Bandit:
    "This is the story of Michael Kenyon
    A man who's serving time at this very moment
    For the crime of armed robbery
    It so happened, that at the time of the robbery
    Michael, decided to give his female victims
    A little enema
    Apparently, there was no law against that
    But his name lives on Michael Kenyon
    The Illinois Enema Bandit!"

    Das freut mich. :)

    Niveau sieht nur von unten aus wie Arroganz.

    Nächstes Wochenende (Fr. - So.) findet in Bad Doberan, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, wieder die alljährliche Zappanale statt.

    Dieses Jahr wurde das Festival wegen der Fußball-WM um eine Woche verschoben.

    Tachchen,


    wer Zappa mag und auch kein Problem damit hat, die heiligen Machwerke durch neue Betextung entweiht zu sehen, kann gerne am 6.3. der Livepremiere eines Gigs auf youtube beiwohnen. Die Band heißt "Die miserablen Husos" und macht Zappa auf hessisch-deutsch. Na Mahlzeit. Hier der Link: https://youtu.be/_mKD4kCw2IM

    Einfach auf den Erinnerungs Button drücken und man wird....erinnert.

    Ahoi

    Music is the best

    Frank Zappa and The Mothers – The Mothers 1971 [Super Deluxe Edition] (2022)



    In a masterstroke of understatement, Frank Zappa and The Mothers proclaimed themselves to be Just Another Band from L.A. on a 1972 album of the same title. Of course, The Mothers were never just another band, but this particular iteration – featuring former Turtles vocalists Flo and Eddie (Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan) and drummer Jim Pons, drummer Aynsley Dunbar, keyboardist Don Preston, and multi-instrumentalist Ian Underwood – was one of the most memorable of the band’s existence. This line-up recorded a pair of acclaimed live albums (the U.S. top 40 album Fillmore East – June 1971 and the aforementioned Just Another Band from L.A.), and famously jammed with John Lennon and Yoko Ono on the Fillmore stage, a set that ended up on their Some Time in New York City double album. But this version of the Mothers came to an unceremonious end on December 10, 1971 in London, England, concluding a tragic week that left the Montreux Casino in ashes, Zappa seriously injured, and Deep Purple with the hit record “Smoke on the Water.”


    On March 18, Zappa Records and UMe will celebrate this era of the Mothers with a three-release slate, the centerpiece of which is the 8-CD box set The Mothers 1971. It’s similar in spirit to 2020’s The Mothers 1970, which chronicled an earlier unit also featuring Zappa supported by Flo and Eddie, Aynsley Dunbar, Ian Underwood,

    and others. This release also follows on the heels of the 50th anniversary reissues of Zappa’s 200 Motels; his “ conceptual continuity” extended clearly from 200 Motels to the 1971 era of the Mothers, with the music for both chronicling the life of a touring rock band in satirical, sordid, and surreal detail. (Yes, Flo and Eddie sang “Happy Together,” but not quite in the context one might have expected!)


    The 100-track, nearly 10-hour The Mothers 1971, produced by Ahmet Zappa and “Vaultmeister” Joe Travers, presents each and every note of all four shows played at NYC’s beloved Fillmore East on June 5-6, 1971, including the full jam session with John and Yoko. (The concerts were among the closing acts at the historic venue; it closed permanently on June 27. Today, a bank sits in its place.) It marks the very first time the complete Fillmore East concerts have been released in unedited form.


    Additionally, the box set recreates a concert from the June 1 and June 3 performances in Scranton and Harrisburg, PA (respectively), and presents the full Rainbow Theatre concert in London, England on December 10, 1971 when a “fan” attacked Zappa following the band’s performance of The Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand.” The band had been playing that night with rented equipment, due to the tragic fire that engulfed the Montreux Casino on December 4 (and their instruments with it). Thankfully, Zappa and the Mothers emerged relatively unscathed, but more tragedy followed at the Rainbow less than one week later.


    Zappa was violently pushed from the stage into the orchestra pit 12 feet below. A panic broke out on the premises while he was left with serious injuries. He wrote in his 1989 memoir, “My head was over on my shoulder and my neck was bent like it was broken. I had a gash in my chin, a hole in the back of my head, a broken rib and a fractured leg. One arm was paralyzed.” Zappa spent most of the following year in a wheelchair and a leg brace; needing to continue working, the Mothers disbanded and pursued other musical avenues. The box set is rounded out with the original single version of Zappa’s rock-and-roll pastiche “Tears Began to Fall” b/w the non-LP flipside, “Junier Mintz Boogie,” plus a radio spot and outtakes. This is the first release to present the official audio of the Rainbow Theatre show complete with its frightening ending. It was thought to have not been recorded but was recently discovered as this box was being curated.


    Most of the live tracks have been newly mixed by Craig Parker Adams at Winslow Ct. Studios and mastered by John Polito at Audio Mechanics. The Rainbow Theatre show has been newly mixed by producer/engineer and Jimi Hendrix collaborator Eddie Kramer (his first Zappa Trust project to date) and mastered by Bernie Grundman. All recordings included on The Mothers 1971 were sourced from their original 2-inch, 16-track, 1-inch 8-track, and quarter-inch 2-track stereo analog master tapes in The Vault and digitally transferred and compiled by Joe Travers in 2020.


    The Lennon/Ono jam session has also been freshly remixed. Featuring Walter Ward’s oldie “Well” (a Livepool-era Beatles favorite) with John on lead vocals and Zappa soloing plus a version of “King Kong” that transformed into the jam “Scumbag,” the encore was originally planned for release by Zappa who mixed it in 1971. But once John and Yoko released their own mix on Some Time in New York City, Zappa shelved his recording util the 1992 release of Playground Psychotics. In 2021, the Lennon Estate provided the Zappa trust and UMe with a high-resolution transfer of the original multitrack safety reel (which Zappa had made for Lennon in 1971); that transfer has been used asthe basis of this remix.


    The CD-sized case features eight discs in their own mini-sleeves, collectively housed within an inner slipcase.The accompanying 68-page booklet has Ahmet Zappa’s new interview with Ian Underwood plus commentary from Eddie Kramer and Jim Pons. Joe Travels has provided tape-by-tape liner notes, and Henry Diltz has supplied photos. The Mothers 1971 will also be available for download/streaming, including in high resolution.


    Vinyl enthusiasts will be rewarded with two releases in this campaign. An expanded 50th Anniversary edition of Fillmore East – June 1971 will be presented on 3 LPs. The first LP has the remastered version of the original album, while the second and third platters boast the John and Yoko encore and the complete “Billy the Mountain,”

    among other outtake material from the concerts. The bonus material encompasses Zappa’s period mixes, some of which are not included on the CD set. The Fillmore East 50th Anniversary Edition 3LP set features liner notes by Joe Travers and was cut by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering.


    It’s joined by Rainbow Theatre – December 10, 1971, presenting the show as heard on the CD box set across 3 LPs. It has been cut by Bernie Grundman at his studio and features liner notes by Eddie Kramer.
