Product Description
The Zappa Plays Zappa DVD collection brilliantly commemorates the critically acclaimed 2006 concerts which presented a collection of Frank Zappa's rock-oriented compositions form teh 1960's thorugh the 180's; Zappa Plays Zappa is a tour de force of rock guitar virtuosity. Filmed in Portland and Seattle, ZPZ is a guitarist's dream come true. Featueing Dweezil Zappa on lead guitar and the precision virtuoso guitarist/instrumentalist Terry Bozzio and Steve Vai, a dash of Frank Zappa's social commentary and wit, ZPZ is a document like no other available! Also featured are a mix of musicians who previously played with Frank Zappa including original Mothers of Invention member Napoleon Murphy Brock (sax, flute, vocals)! In addition, Frank Zappa himself performs posthumously via synchronized audio/video technology, including solos in "Chunga's Revenge."

Love Frank? Then you MUST own this; don't know Frank, then you MUST own this. November 4, 2008
This will get you addicted to the music of Frank Zappa. Dweezil is the real deal; he plays guitar like no one around right now!!! Saw him 3times last week (including Halloween), 7 times in last 3 years - and he rocks!!!
This CD is just great, the song selections are excellent - but - don't buy it!!! DO NOT BUY THIS CD!!! Find the Zappa Plays Zappa Fan Pack - so you don't get this nice selection, you get the entire concert (2 DVDs and 3 CDs). There is so much AMAZING stuff in that concert it should not be missed buying this scaled-down version. If you are only going to buy a single-CD, then ok, buy this one, but you'll be back for the other, I promise.
Dweezil rips up FZ music in "like Frank", he does not try "to be Frank", he is Dweezil, and sometimes I think he is even a better guitarist than Frank; hard to believe. He plays it "like Frank" so you won't ever feel like you are just hearing a great cover band - he truly covers the music, the small things others would overlook and never know about. Just can't be explained, not in words anyway.
Then comes the rest of the band - Joe on drums, forget it, he just cooks; Sheila on sax - WOW!!!!; Billy on the percussion, what a nice guy, and can he hit those things; Aaron on keyboards, and all sorts of stuff, to much fun; Jamie on rythm guitar - forget him, he could be fronting Led Zeppelin he is so good; and Pete on bass, when he does his solo and plays that thing like a 6string guitar your mouth will hang open. Napolean Murphy Brock - can't say enough about him (Ray White tours now with Dweezil, and is absolutely incredible as Napolean is). The CD also has some stuff with Steve Vai and Terry Bozio ... Vai on Zomby Woof - WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, that's why you want the DVD, you have to see him to really appreciate what he's playing, doing.
ENJOY!!!! and trust me, you will LOVE THIS!!!.
