Loved your Melbourne Australia shows some years ago Dweezil. Can't wait till you visit again. Ohh its important that you believe me... bup bup bup.....that it CAN happen here.
Of all the many wonderful vocalists in Frank’s bands, I think Ray is my favorite. Love this version of Outside Now. Sheila’s harmonies are great too. (On all the tracks) Great mix- love the stereo effects in that ripping DZ solo! Thanks for this and everything else!
I’ve long been a fan of Zappa and the Mothers which wasn’t a popular choice of music among my friends and age group....initially that is. It was either when we reached our late teen years or when we discovered psychedelics (these two things occurred at the same time) suddenly my taste in music became more popular with my friends. beyond a decade later a friend of mine gives me a present, a ticket for Zappa Plays Zappa concert in Iowa city and I was thrilled and expected a good time. Instead what I got was a great time and my mind utterly blown. I’ve seen too many live concerts to count and plenty of phenomenal and legendary artists at that , the show I saw that night was among the best I’ve ever attended. Easily in my top 10 but more likely top 5. I’d planned on catching Dweezil and his band the next time they came around but then covid happened and blah blah blah. clearly Frank Zappa was an amazing guitar player and was very creative. Truly one of a kind. That said, In my opinion based on that show in Iowa city and the other live material Of Dweezil playing his dads tunes that ive heard hundreds of times , Dweezil might even be a better guitar player technically speaking. Either way Dweezil certainly does his dads music justice and what better way to honor thy father than by reproducing his art in such a badass manner. I’ll be in attendance for every show that’s not more than a few hours drive away for me and I can’t suggest it strongly enough to anyone who appreciates Zappa’s music. I’m very grateful for the chance to see much of the stuff created in the 60’s and 70’s in a live show by a cast that’s on par with the talents of the original people. Sincerely , thank you !
Thanks for the kind words. I look forward to be able to play again. I don't have any concrete plans yet but I will definitely announce any touring plans here on my website.
Love this! Ray really came close to Ike Willis style of singing. I saw ZPZ in 2007 at Sacramento with Ray at the helm. I remember hearing quite a few of " Joe's Garage " songs at that show and once the show was finished, I knew I was hooked for life.
In this 50th anniversary year, there's scope to do a 200 Motels mini-concert too (This Town Is A Sealed Tuna Sandwich / Daddy Daddy Daddy / What Will This Evening Bring Me This Morning / Magic Fingers)!
The promotion creates the opportunity to get the 1/2 off discount ($4.00) on the purchase of the NEXT mini-concert. Anyone who purchased “Cup Of Joe” in the first 48 hours will receive a coupon code via email to redeem 1/2 off the next mini-concert, which will be uploaded very soon. I hope that helps to clarify.
It's only just morning here, check my mailbox and come across this great mini concert. headphones picked up .... and enjoy again . What a nice start to this Tuesday. thank you Dweezil and Co

Hi Jake,
Thanks for the kind words. I look forward to be able to play again. I don't have any concrete plans yet but I will definitely announce any touring plans here on my website.

And yes, " Music is the best. "
Adam Minkoff is singing lead on this version of Joe's Garage.
Love it. It's a way of life.
Thank you
this is so cool, keep them coming Dweezil
Solid sound and very solid musicians. Time to hit the road again. Please
In this 50th anniversary year, there's scope to do a 200 Motels mini-concert too (This Town Is A Sealed Tuna Sandwich / Daddy Daddy Daddy / What Will This Evening Bring Me This Morning / Magic Fingers)!
OUTSTANDING!!!! More with Ray White please?
Thanks for this great music. A ‘mini concert’ of the Hot Rats shows would be most excellent
Hi Rich, I was thinking the same thing! Gonna work on it!
Yeah. Maybe the Big Swifty variations!
Cool mini concert !!
The performance and sound quality is great! Love it!
I thought Instagram said it was $4.00--what gives?
