 Fellow Zappa fans:

 If you want the Roxy soundtrack cd, here's a Pre-sale offer,
 I will sign up with ZFT to become a distributor if enough of my  
 fellow Zappalisters reply and commit to buy a copy from me for $25.

 I have to admit that I thought it was bad idea when I first read  
 about ZFT's plan to license distributors for $1000.I still think  
 it's a bit crazy. But doing the math I realized that a distributor  
 could recover the $1000 fee and break even by selling about 130 units.

 So what do you people think? If we make this happen, we just might  
 see the Roxy video get released in our life times.

 Here's what to do: Send me a reply, saying you want to buy the cd  
 for $25 (that includes shipping to USA addresses)
 If I get enough votes before the deadline, I will commit to  
 becoming a distributor, and follow up with each of you to provide  
 more details.

 If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks for listening,

 Andrew

 PS- I know some of you are wondering, who is this Andrew guy and why  
 should I trust him? I didn't just pop up out of no where. I have

Hi Chris,
Yes, I received it but I don't see how it will be beneficial to any  
civilian.  Paying a thousand dollars to distribute Frank's music is  
not going to be profitable to any of us.  I don't know how few fans he  
really has but by diluting the distribution pool it will make any  
return on the investment very minimal.
I wish I could see how many folks take a chance with this.

Re: [Zappa-List] Re: All time greatest Zappa songs

2012-01-22 Thread duckbite
Like many of you it is difficult to assemble a small list of greatest  
Zappa songs.  Sometimes I can listen to Punky's Whips over and over;  
not as much for the lyrics, but for its musical foundation.  Willie  
the Pimp (HR) always is captivating, but I also thnk the same thing  
about most live MOI stuff '68-'69, etc.)  that I'm lucky to listen to.  
  I have on several occasions made some non Zappa friends listen to  
Son Of Mr. Green Genes (HR) telling them that that is the sinlge  tune  
that could completely represent Frank if I had to choose only one.  So  
that is my all time favorite Zappa song, but after I wake up tomorrow  
I'm sure I'll kick myself for not chossing a different one.

Ther's a ticket to the show and a booklet with comments from Al Malkin  
amongst other things plus pictures of the band.

Arf: The Persuasions Show.I just Can't work no Longer, Working All the  
Live Long Day/Chain Gang,Medley #1, Pieces of a Man, Buffalo Soldier,  
Medley #2,Medley #3.  FZ Show: Call Any Vegetable, Anyway The Wind  
Blows, Magdalena, Dog Breath.

ARF ARF:Peaches, Tears Began To Fall, Shove it Right IN,King Kong, 200  
Motels Finale, Who Are the Brain Police (This is NOT your Mothers'  
version of Brain Police.  I think it's kinda catchy)

ARF ARF ARF:Auspicious Occasion, Divan, Once Upon a Time, Sofa#1,  
Magic Pig, Stick it OUT, Divan Ends Here, Pound for a Brown, Sleeping  
in a Jar, Wonderful Wino, Sharleena 1970,  Cruising For Burgers.

ARF ARF ARF ARF:Billy The Mountain, The $600 Mid Shrk Prelude (Where  
Frank explains that it would cost $600 extra in union fees if they  
play beyond their contrated time, and they do!) The Mud Shark.

I wish this was made available sooner but then if it was I don't know

much fun to listen to as this.

Buy it while the stove's still hot.  Read you all later,

Re: [Zappa-List] old Mothers albums mixes

2011-12-16 Thread duckbite
Just to chime in here, I prefer the otriginal mix of Cruisin over the  
CD version but I listen to the CD version many times more.  Also, take  
Hot Rats for example.  I listen to the CD so many more times but  
whenever I get to hear the LP version it is almost like I'm  
discovering a new version never heard before.
I don't dislike the Chad Wackerman drumming but I like the  
older/original better.  If I could choose, I'd rather the ZFT spend  
more time releasing unheard of stuff, like the Carnegie LP instead of  
remixing LPs I already have.
Having typed that I'll sign off wishing you all a Merry Christmas and  
a Happy Zappadan.

 This List isn't dead, it just smells funny...
 Your question as it wasn't, kinda puts you in a category. There  
 seem to be 2 different campswith regard to the early recordings  
 and their subsequent remixes (and both can be quite rabid): those  
 who prefer the former, and those who prefer the latter.
 I actually like (and own) both, and cannot say that I prefer one  
 over the other.
 I know, a chumps way out, but it's true.

 Does anyone know why the early Mothers of Invention albums (the  
 first 3) have the bass and especially drums so low in the mix? I'm  
 surprised these haven't been re-mixed by Joe Travers and Dweezil. I  
 like the later 1984 mix of We're Only in it for the Money with Chad  
 Wackerman on drums and Arthur Barrow on bass because the drums and  
 bass are more prominent in the mix and other aspects of the songs  
 seem to be remixed as well, enhancing the songs.

 Happy Thanksgiving All

Thank you Robert and the same back.  Once again it will be a Zappa  
inspired Thanksgiving with plenty of Lumpy Gravy to top off those San  
Quentin Mash Potatoes and that Lonesome Electric Turkey.  Obviously  
there is much more so fill in the blanks if you will.
Back to the Dangerous Kitchen, see ya.
