Shut Up And Play Yer Guitar


The eleventh night of Zappadan is tradtionally the night of the fret elves and we pay homage by shutting up and letting Frank play his guitar.
This is a piece called Pink Napkins.

Hello Microdot,
What a great selection. I just kicked back and enjoyed the guitar riffs. Man what a great artist for foresight of music.

The last part of that jam quite tasty. FZ had a great tone......

At the same time (if ya don't mind a une petit cynicism), FZ's solos, while often very cool, are somewhat monotonic: he rarely moves through any changes, and doesn't do much chromatically--say like Coryell, or even Mahavishnu.....(or Miles, Bird Parker, Trane, marsalis bros, etc.-----and/or the Kenton band)
