Have you ever heard Ponty's "King Kong" album? All Zappa material with FZ performing.

No but I will get that....I do like King Kong from Uncle Meat. I think Zappa is the only guy who could put in overdubs from completely different performances and make it sound so natural. He put in live solos onto studio songs too....hard to get away with that kind of stuff.
I think he was way ahead on sampling too with the fast edits on Lumpy Gravy and We Are Only In It For The Money....sort of reminds me of hip hop stuff in a way...
