When seeing this subject come up I'm reminded of the irony. Does anyone else 
recall FZ going on briefly about beer (and its association with stupidity) in 
the Real Frank Zappa Book?

and of course there would be his stance against drugs in general, and alcohol 
is in fact a drug (albeit a legal drug as opposed to those 'untaxed' drugs)

As I said, irony.

almost forgot - Who in their right mind would associate Mrs. Zappa's idiotic 
and greedy with being liberal ( media created and mentally conditioned term 
in my opinion)?
 I associate stupid and greedy behavior with politicians of all kinds in 
general. I think FZ would have agreed. (You say your life's a bum deal and 
you're up against the wall? Well people you ain't got no kinda deal at all, 
cause what they do down in Washingtum...)

Is this guy sure he's on the correct list?

Wouldn't have ever happened. FZ expressed his extreme dislike of Miles on at 
least one occasion I can recall.

Mr. Skull

. . . and perhaps even fantasize about what might have happened if Miles had 
given FZ the call for the Bitches Brew sessions.

BerichtIt was in a Guitar Player magazine interview if memory serves. I 
probably still have it as I NEVER throw out anything 'Frank'. But it wasn't 
about his music, it was about Miles Davis as a person. He recalled going to see 
Miles in the early Sixties and went to meet him after the show. He relates 
walking up to MD to introduce himself and shake Miles' hand. According to 
Frank, after saying something along the lines of 'Mr. Davis, my name is Frank 
Zappa and I enjoyed your show' etc Miles turned his back on FZ and completely 
ignored\snubbed him. Frank goes on to say how this stuck with him and he made 
sure to never treat his fans this way. 

Hope that clears things up.

Mr. Skull

  Really? Any idea why or what period of Miles' music he was referring to?

Yes she does, and you're absolutely right about that. I'll now raise the bar

she's had for years -  to buy our daughter the kid sized Titties and Beer

She cried the day Frank died.

Re: [Zappa-List] Nappy's Fate? ; one more comment, but not fate related

2008-01-19 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull
Napoleon is the man. He's part of the reason I love that NMB\Ruth\tom\George 
Duke\Chester line up more than others. It's my favorite Zappa configuration. 

Flo and Eddie!? Fuckabuncha Flo and Eddie, it's Napoleon man.

And to think I never knew he was called Nappy...
  About 2 or 3  years ago I got a chance to talk to Napoleon at a 
Project/Object concert in Baltimore.  It was an enjoyable conversation; he 
talked about healthy foods- various milk shakes, lots of vegetables- his 
BALLScd, and he even launched into an impromptu Room Service routine, 
egging me on to join him as the Frank part of it.  That was a real treat for 
me.  
  I also asked him if he had any news on the Roxy video release and he said 
that he had bveen in contact with Gail and that the movie was going to be 
released (his words)  Real Soon, it's coming out real soon, about 2 or 3 
months
  My guess is that is what he was told, but that obviously did not happen.
  If anyone reading this has never seen Napoleon perform and you do get an 
opportunity you should make it a point to go.  The man works harder than most 
performers I have seen.  He is non-stop stage action and he really puts his 
whole heart and soul into a performence.  I was lucky to see him sometime in 
the 70's and considrer myself fortunate to get a chance to talk to him when I 
did.
  Ike Willis was also at that show and the band was tight.

Honestly, no. Truth is I've never conversed with any *serious* Zappa fans until

material but that's it. If it ever was uttered in any of the recordings of live 
shows I've watched or heard, I missed it.

  Hello Mr (or is this  the Mrs?) Skull,
  I apologize if my question appeared accusatory- I did not mean that at all.  
On most of the Zappa related groups I've gone to there are many questions asked 
in jest that appear to be serious (Does Humor belong in an Email group?)  
Sometimes a very esoteric reference will be made just to see what responses it 
will provoke.  
  Again, I meant no insult but I was truly wondering if you were serious.

Looks like You, Eli and myself are outsiders...


For what it's worth, I never called Napoleon Nappy either and 
wouldn't be surprised if he smacked my condescending ass one for that, either.
On the alleged thread of this I heard from backstage talk (so take 
it with a grain of salt) that there was always some tension in the ZFT camp 
since Napoleon would not agree to work exclusively for the Zappa Plays Zappa 
band.  He was not about to turn down a gig with Project/Object or any other 
Zappa tribute outfit that was not  authorized by the Zappa Family Trust.
As I said, this was hearsay so take it as such, although it does 
make a certain amount of logic (if not sense).

Hoppinate?

Jim L (US)  

For any of you that didn't get this already. You need to be able to copy a
DVD disc for this one. It also helps if you have a DVD player that can play
a PAL disc on your NTSC TV if you're in the US. Just sign up and I will
hoppinate before sending out next week. Oh buy the way this is concert is
fantastic and the quality of this DVD is very high.

If this is a recurring problem, would it be possible to send along with the

be a good idea for those that are venturing out of the mp3 format.

[Zappa-List] VARESE A LA MODE Con Zappa

2006-03-20 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





I hear the Varese influence on Frank in his use of 
percussion
and atonal use of instruments. But Frank wore his 
influences on his sleeve when it comes to Varese and Stravinsky 
both.

Is Poeme Electronique the one with the firehorns 
in it?

  Another interesting work by Varese- Poeme Electronique- modified 
  taped and electronic effects created for a World's Fair exhibit I 
  believe. Perhaps a clue to Zappa's fascination with taped tidbits 
  punctuating his comedy music.My original exposure to Varese (via Zappa 
  referral) was on vinyl- Robert Craft conducting.BTW, there are two 
  versions of Density 21.5- 21.5 pertaining to the density of platinum. 
  Varese composed the piece for the inaugural presentation of the platinum 
  flute. There is a detailed analysis of the composition found on Wikipedia- 
  look it up as Density 21.5.--- In Zappa-List@yahoogroups.com,

On that note, I've always thought YCDTOSA Vol. was 
a great live one, especially regarding its "RUTH" content...
Try 
  "Roxy and Elsewhere". It does contain some "silly" lyrics (some of the 
  better silly lyrics) but it has lots of fine FINE instrumental sections 
  executed by some of his best sidemen (and sidewoman) ever, 
IMHO.

Re: [Zappa-List] seek your advice

2006-02-12 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





Frank's instrumental\orchestral\'arranged' music 
has always been my preferred Zappa listening. With that in mind I 
really
like "Lather", Hot Rats\Waka Jawaka (a separate 
and distinct title from "Hot Rats") and "The Yellow Shark". "Jazz From Hell" is 
purty cool too. With "Lather" I just program out the vocal tracks when I'm not 
in the mood for them. 

Try it, you'll love it, it's a way of 
life...

Mr. Skull

  
  
  Hi,I'm a relative newbie to Frank Zappa music. To begin I 
  bought a "best of album" to get a sampling (with over 70+ albums to chose from and such a 
  wide variety it is hard to choose!).The first song on the album - "Peaches En Regalia" hit me 
  right up front and I would like to ask which other songs/albums offer similar styles of 
  compositions. The vocal stuff doesn't do much for me at this stage, but I'm really hungry for the 
  "peaches" style compositions.Any advice or pointers would be 
  appreciated.thanks.-Rob

Re: [Zappa-List] MITB Track Listing

2006-01-27 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





Well then while I'm at it I'll ask:

1) What is different about the version of "Hungry Freaks, 
Daddy" on MITB? 

2) What is the original source of MITB?

Mr. Skull

  26) Sink Trap 
  (acetate)
  It's worth noting that this is from the 1975 Royce Hall concerts (it's 
  since been released on QuAUDIOPHILiac under the title "Lumpy Gravy") and not 
  from the Lumpy Gravy orchestral recordings at all.
  
  11) Uncle Remus (instrumental version)
  And that this is from George's Duke's The Aura Will Prevail.
  
  11) Ship Ahoy (live 2/3/76, Osaka, 
  Japan)
  And it still sort of bothers me that this is on the set as it contains 
  maybe five whole seconds of music not on the officially released recording 
  (whereas the entire guitar solo that precedes it in "Zoot Allures" has never 
  been officially released, and it could have easily gone on this set.)
  
  3) Flakes (live, 9/21/78)
  And that this is on there instead of "Moe's Vacation" (and it's 9.27.78, 
  btw, not 9.21)
  
  6) Don't Eat the Yellow Snow (YCDTOSA vol. 1, live, 
2/18/79)7) Nanook Rubs It (YCDTOSA vol. 1, live edit, 2/18/79)8) St. 
Alphonzo's Pancake Breakfast (YCDTOSA vol. 1, live, 2/18/79)9) Father 
O'Blivion (YCDTOSA vol. 1, live, 2/18/79)10) Rollo (YCDTOSA vol. 1, 
live, 2/18/79)
  And this whole debacle.
  
  15) For the Young Sophisticate (LP 
  version)
  And that this is identical to the CD version.
  16) Pick Me I'm Clean (LP version)
  And the only thing that differentiates this from the CD version is the 
  little drum fill edited in at the beginning. While it came from vinyl, it's 
  still the compiler's version and not legitimately "the LP version." Why this 
  and not "Now You See It - Now You Don't" which gets it's ending tramped on on 
  the CD version due to a crossfade?
  
  8) Strictly Genteel (live, 10/31/81)
  And why this is necessary (great, you edited out the guy screaming 
  "Zappa!" at the end, at the expense of something else that could have gone on 
  the set...)
  
  Not that I don't love the entire set as a whole, those are just a few 
  little things that always kinda bugged me...

Re: [Zappa-List] Ripping?

2005-12-23 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





Thank you Jim.

  
  
  
  
  
  I think the term 
  first gained popular usage when mp3 caught on. A music CD (usually factory 
  made) would be inserted and the act of producing mp3 files on the hard drive 
  from it was termed ripping. I guess a new term was necessary in that audio on 
  a music CD is in a format that can’t be stored on a hard drive. CDDA or 
  compact digital disc format. So to get the music onto your hard drive it can’t 
  be just copied but rather must be changed to a different format. Wav files are 
  almost bit for bit identical to CDDA but the header is a little different on 
  CDDA by design so that it can’t be copied so easily. At least that’s what they 
  thought back in the early eighties. Mp3 is of course not similar at all and 
  most of the digital information must be discarded when mp3 is created. Flac 
  and shn files still contain all of the data from the original wav file but 
  store it a bit more compactly and can be expanded back into the original wav 
  file. With mp3 you can expand back to wav but you can never get back the 
  information that’s been tossed out. That’s why they’re referred to as lossy 
  while wav, flac and shn are considered lossless. Much of the information that 
  gets tossed out in the creation of mp3 isn’t even audible however and that’s 
  why they can sound as good as the do. Results seem to vary dramatically to my 
  ear depending on what encoder is used. To me LAME makes the very best mp3 and 
  razorlame is a good front end for it. Both are free. 
  
  
  Then DVD entered the 
  picture. Commercially produced DVD is encrypted and so can’t be directly 
  copied to the hard drive or disc ether. So ripping software for DVD became 
  available in short order. It decrypts the files so that they can be copied. 
  Unencrypted DVD’s like we share here can be directly copied to the hard drive. 
  
  
  Also if you do a 
  direct disc copy of a CD it doesn’t have to be ripped to another format but 
  can directly copy the CDDA files. The belief that EAC (exact audio copy) 
  software is superior at reading the disc however has lead to the practice of 
  ripping an audio CD into wav files first and then authoring a new CD from them 
  rather than doing a disc copy. Everything I’ve read as well as my own 
  experiences seems to back up this belief. Ideally a software could read the 
  disc like EAC but create a disc image from the data instead of making wav 
  files. That would avoid converting from CDDA to wav and then back to CDDA just 
  to copy a disc. Perhaps EAC will get around to that in the 
  future.

Re: [Zappa-List] Vine order confusion (have a look at this)

2005-12-18 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





If it will eliminate all doubt about who is in 
what order to receive something and who had it last then I think it's an idea 
whose time is long over due.

Mr. Skull

  What would you guys 
  think about keeping the list of vine participants on the website? It should 
  eliminate the getting out of order problem. The list of participants would be 
  stationary instead of traveling with each email and running the risk of 
  becoming mangled. We could make a database for each vine. Check out the 
  example I made here.
  
  http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/Zappa-List/database
  
  Play with it. Try 
  adding yourself to the example vine by clicking on “add record”. Try making an 
  all new example vine by clicking on “create table” from the main database page 
  the link goes to. 
  
  Just an idea I was 
  kicking around for a tweak to the system. Check it out and say what you think. 
  To complicated, to hard to get to, you like it or 
  whatever.

Jim,

Dvd Shrink isn't available at this link for users 
in the US.
Do you happen to know where a copy can be 
downloaded from for US users? I tried the search suggested at the DVD 

Shrink site, but they all want personal info 
and\or to charge 
your credit card for downloading it.

Thanks in advance,

Mr. Skull

  Try ripping it to 
  the hard drive with DVDShrink. I’ve found that it sometimes fixes minor 
  glitches as well as being useful to backup the copyrighted stuff. Just do a 
  full backup and it will maintain all the menus and such. Then you can burn 
  with your usual program. If something is drastically wrong with the disc 
  DVDShrink won’t be able to rip it however. Free 
  download.

Re: [Zappa-List] vines - everyone PLEASE read.

2005-10-06 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





Just for the record. Something of the comments 
you've responded to listed with my name below, are in fact either Jim's or 
someone else's. Maybe I'm misreading your tone, but I get the feeling of being 
singled out here. I may be mistaken. 
Point being, I'm not the only one who *clearly* 
expressed some feeling of frustration and disappointment over frequent 'vine 
failure'. As you pointed out this group belongs to all of us, I reserve the 
right from here on in to decline anyone who failed to keep their end of the 
bargain on moving a vine along
(AKA "moving the project forward"). I will do this 
*ONLY* on vines I start, and it will be done off-list\privately. And with the 
condition that once they uphold their commitment, I will gladly add them to the 
end of any vine I begin.

That's my "final solution"

Mr. Skull

  SOFA came up with this great new system that should make it easy to 
  track the vines. Seems to me that with a good system like this we could easily 
  determine who is killing the vines. For any one not familiar with SOFA's vine 
  method I took the liberty of posting it here for easy access. http://www.regyptionstrut.com/vine.htmJim 
  L 
  The system works - when it's employed. It's not universally 
  employed. With a group like this, with people joining (and leaving) everyday, 
  you gotta kinda hope that newbies read the FAQ that explains it all. 
  Unfortunately, not all do - no, no, no, they're much to wise for that; FAQ's 
  are for dummies... PEUW!
  There are some "regulars" that still don't employ the system, ("I 
  don't need a to read the FAQ; I've been posting for years". Double 
  PEUW!), so it's not just new members... The biggest problem lately is 
  members on digest that respond to an "old message", which - in effect - screws 
  up the proper order of the vine. Hey, when in doubt, visit the yahoo page; 
  it's the most up-to-date.
  This aint rocket science, kids...
  (Frankly, I think most are too lazy to bother - but, that's just 
  me, speaking from experience,)
  
  
  I had missed the removal of one's own name 
  aspect of this vine system. But one question: If there are no consequences for 
  those who might repeatedly "kill" a vine, then what good can it possibly do us 
  to know who is responsible. 
  Mr. Skull
  "Consequences" require a specific set of "actions" on someone's 
  part - namely, moi. As sole owner/moderator of the Zappa list, that means I 
  would have to (unbiasedly) track every vine that occurs here. Since we began 
  the vine system, posts regarding them has become the major influx of 
  mail.
  I'm sorry, but I simply can't dedicate that much time to the 
  vines. I still monitor every post made by a new member before it hits the 
  boards; until a new member's "intent" has been made clear to me, none of you 
  are bothered by extraneous poot. By doing this, I have eliminated all porn 
  spam, chain mails, and other self-promotional crap that plagues yahoo groups. 
  I believe my efforts have made the Zappa-List the friendliest, crap-free group 
  going at yahoo. And that's as far as I care to take it, on the moderator 
  end...
  
  I think we know where the vines are and who kills them. The 
  point is what action can be taken. You have to be seen to be fair, as we all 
  have life difficulties from time to time.It shouldn't be aproblem 
  to let the list know your going to cause a delay...unless your pc dies...then 
  what?
  Mr. Skull
  Here's the deal: The Zappa-List is your group. I only try 
  to do what I think is best for the 700+ members we have. If the more active 
  viners wish to have a greater deal of "control" (read: able to inflict 
  consequences) of the workings of the group, I'm all for it and I welcome your 
  private email(s) to that effect. {Don't send no boys, okay? Serious 
  contributors only, please. And I gotta take a minute to thank JimL for holding 
  down the fort for me in the past - you ROCK, dude!}
  AFA what I recommend in the case of known (or suspected) "vine 
  killers", if you all know who's killing off vines (Lord knows I have no clue), 
  then simply move their name to the end of the list, or remove it altogether. 
  If they respond and bitch, state your case in the most inoffensive manner 
  possible {remember, personal attacks are simply not tolerated; use the facts 
  as you see them, and keep your opinion to yourself}, and request an 
  explanatory response.
  Remember, it's your group!
  It's unfortunate, but a fact, that some folks are just scum. I'm 
  one of those that needs to smacked over the head repeatedlywith proof 
  before I believe it of anyone... It's one of the things that makes me lovable 
  - that, and my tasteful, maroon hue.

Well, then it looks as if delay is not the issue 
here then. But it sure does suck when you wait so long on a vine that you begin 
to accept the fact that you might not ever receive it. MITB comes to mind for me 
on this one.

Mr. Skull

  Personally 
  I don’t mind a delay. Especially if the person sends a post to the list 
  explaining it. It’s the vines that just stop. I really don’t know were all 
  this has happened. Ok I think I know about a couple of recent ones. I just 
  know that out of the several vines I’ve started over the last 6 to 12 months 
  only one or two seem to have completed to the point that someone posts a 
  message saying they were last. I’ve never even been affected much by diapering 
  vines because I seldom sign up to receive one. More often it’s just that I’ve 
  acquired something that I think is more than worth sharing and so I start 
  one.

  mail but I thought someone had said they would resend the discs? 
  
  
  
  
  BTW obvius

  vines) should be disappearing vines. lolJim L 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Well, then it looks as if delay 
  is not the issue here then. But it sure does suck when you wait so long on a 
  vine that you begin to accept the fact that you might not ever receive it. 
  MITB comes to mind for me on this one.
  
  
  
  Mr. Skull
  

Personally 
I don’t mind a delay. Especially if the person sends a post to the list 
explaining it. It’s the vines that just stop. I really don’t know were all 
this has happened. Ok I think I know about a couple of recent ones. I just 
know that out of the several vines I’ve started over the last 6 to 12 months 
only one or two seem to have completed to the point that someone posts a 
message saying they were last. I’ve never even been affected much by 
diapering vines because I seldom sign up to receive one. More often it’s 
just that I’ve acquired something that I think is more than worth sharing 
and so I start one.

Jim,

I've got burnatonce on my drive as a result of 
your having recommending it previously. But I've never been able to get it to 
work. I'll have to try again, as I've got to get these damn discs burned and on 
their way.

Frustrated,

Mr. Skull

  Ican’t 
  be of much help as I haven’t used Nero for some time now. I can offer a free 
  alternative that a lot of folks are using now with no problems. They say it’s 
  not compatible with all drives but I’ve not found anyone yet that’s had a 
  problem if they are using 2000 or XP. Here’s a little quick start guide with a 
  link for downloading the software. It’s called Burnatonce and it uses CDRDAO. 
  If you set it like this it always burns DAO and never creates 
  gaps.

I've decided to go ahead and send the vines on, so 
as to not inconvenience others and keep them waiting longer than neccesary. I'll 
sort out my software problems and then try again later. As it stands, I *was* 
able to copy the Harrisburg, PA, 1970 show discs, which is all I really wanted 
anyway.

Re: [Zappa-List] Nero help needed

2005-08-18 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull






Jim,

Thanks 
for your help. I went to the Nero site and downloaded
the 
available updates. This seems to have rectified the problem.

Mr. 
Skull

Ok then 
perhaps I do know of one that it isn’t working for. It is designed for 2000 and 
or XP. I’m starting to wonder if perhaps you have a hardware problem. I’ve 
certainly worn out a few burners in the last few years. Not really worn out as 
much as they seemed to have circuitry failures. New ones are dirt cheap any more 
in fact for just a few dollars more a DVD CD combo burner can be had. All this 
may only be true for desktop models. 

  
  
  Before 
  condemning your drive though make sure you have DMA (direct memory access) 
  enabled. This is usually enabled but sometimes gets turned off somehow. This 
  is how you can check and turn it on if it’s off
  
  1. 
  Right-click My Computer, then click 
Properties.
  2. 
  Click the Hardware tab, then click the Device 
  Manager button.
  3. 
  Open the devices under IDE ATA/ATAPI 
  Controllers.
  4. 
  For the Primary IDE Channel and the Secondary IDE 
  Channel, double-click the device to display its properties.
  5. 
  Click the Advanced tab.
  6. 
  Ensure that the Current Transfer Mode is DMA or 
  Ultra DMA, not PIO Onlychange it if necessary.
  7. 
  Apply the changes and re-start Windows.

[Zappa-List] Nero help needed

2005-08-16 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





I know people are waiting on me for vines. I'm 
getting stuck thanks to Nero (now that I've gotten it to work 
again)

I've burned two discs ( 1974-10-29, 1  2) and 
now Nero says there isn't enough room on my drive, and to make sure it is 
pointing to a folder with 80 MB or more. I've checked, my hard drive has ample 
room, but just to humor the damn thing, I've cleaned of loads of garbage. Tried 
again, same story from Nero. Apparently the cache\prefernces folder Nero refers 
to
is not my "C" drive. Tried to find it, no 
avail.

Can any of you out there set me 
straight?

Thanks,

Mr. Skull

2005-07-30 Thread mr_and_mrs_skull





The question I have is how can we prevent this sort of 
thing from happening again? This same thing happened to me, but 
unfortunately I was a moron and sent my only copies. 


Mr. Skull

  So far no news from Richard Hall... Next 
  week I'm leaving for a 3 weeks' vacation and I'll be back at the end of 
  August. I don't know what to do and I'm asking for an advice: should 
  I
  
a) wait till then 
and, if thesituation is still the same, make another shipment to the 
next guy in the list ([EMAIL PROTECTED] - US), 
or
b) do this right now 
to speed up the whole thing, or
c)not give a 
damn about this? ;-)

On July1st I 
sent to Richard the 8 HP CDs I received, so I'll have to do a copy from my 
copies - but I think this won't be a big problem.
Let me 
know.
thanks

I won't speak for anyone else, but I see this as a 
problem.
But I'll leave it to the 'elder' members to 
suggest solutions...

As opposed to your unborn days? It seems we do use 
a healthy bit of plot thickener round here

Skull

  LOL, it's scandalous eh! In all my born 
  days!
  I love the confusion on this list, it just cracks 
  me up sometimes.What's best is it remains so friendly, with which it was 
  intended. Unlike some other listsI could mention.
  It's greatto be on here with you

  Nope.

 Correct. The poster identified as White Rabbitt gets the thang after me.
 From
 there, I'm not sure where it goes, but after I get it, it will be further

 the move soon enuff.

Okay, so Richard and Milhouse ARE two seperate persons. Man I am confused.

Milhouse, didn't you just send me your address recently?

My head is spinning

 Mr Skull just received it from me and it's going to Milhouse next. I
 mailed it ages ago, I am beginning to think my mail man auditions the
