I'm pretty much w/Chuck on this, except that I still enjoy the work of the "original" Mothers (up to and including the Burnt Weenie-era large group). But ti seems to me that the inability of that band to break through brought Zappa's cynicism to the fore and that it then became the main element of even his most "serious" work. And that just does not appeal to me. Frustration's a bitch, I know, but...

I grew up in northeast Texas. "Robin Hood" Brians' studio in Tyler ( http://www.robinhoodstudios.com/history.shtml )was home to all sorts of local recording and has achieved a local/regional legend of sorts. The most familiar (relatively speaking) band to record there was Mouse and the Traps ( http://www.cyserv.com/lsbk/projects.html ), which spawned Texas guitar demi-icon Bugs Henderson. But there were scores of otehrs, none of whom I particularly remember off the top of my head.

It's a "small" session, but absolutely beautiful. Is it worth looking for? Definitely.

Ooops, I got beat to the punch. Oh well!

How long is the complete film? Don't think I've ever seen the whole thing, just the musical clip.

Loss is always painful, especially when it's accompanied by a sense of "unfinished business". My sincerest sympathies.

Pausing creates silence, silence creates anticipation, and anticipation is the ultimate aphrodisiac.

Ya' know, sometimes I think that she wasted a lot of her genius over the years on unworthy material and/or settings, but how can you think of "waste" and a performance like that in the same thought?

I can leave a lot of stuff behind if I have to, but I'll never be able to leave behind Pres.

Is that William B. Williams doing the intro? I was looking for the big L, but to no avail...

Warne went waaay beyond Lennie imo.

No.

Hell dude, there's always one we haven't heard. Always.

Indeed it is, as is the Peggy Lee version (w/Nelson Riddle) on The Man I Love. Of course, the original Maey Ann McCall/Woody Herman version ain't no slouch either...
