  • A Spasso Con Frank
    Giordano Montecchi A SPASSO CON FRANK Melologo underground intorno al grande Frank Zappa da Baltimora reinvenzioni zappiane di Giorgio Casadei e Emilio Galante 0 [SENZA MUSICA] A Mister Edgard Varèse, 188 Sullivan Street, New York. Agosto 1957 Gentile Signore, forse ricorderà la mia stupida telefonata dello scorso gennaio... Mi chiamo Frank Zappa e ho 16 anni. Le sembrerà strano ma è da quando ho 13 anni che mi interesso alla sua musica. All’epoca l’unica formazione musicale che avevo era qualche rudimento di tecnica del tamburo. Negli ultimi due anni però ho composto alcuni brani musicali utilizzando una rigorosa tecnica dei dodici suoni con risultati che ricordano Anton Webern. Ho scritto due brevi quartetti per fiati e una breve sinfonia per legni ottoni e percussioni. Ultimamente guadagno qualche soldo per mantenermi con la mia blues band, The Blackouts. Dopo il college conto di continuare a comporre e penso mi sarebbero veramente utili i consigli di un veterano come lei. Se mi permettesse di farle visita anche solo per poche ore gliene sarei molto grato. Le sembrerà strano ma penso proprio di avere qualche nuova idea da offrirle in materia di composizione. La prego di rispondermi il più presto possibile perché non resterò a lungo a questo indirizzo. La ringrazio per l’attenzione. Cordiali saluti Frank Zappa Jr. ................... 2 1 PEACHES EN REGALIA [VAMP] I duri del rock lo sentono come loro proprietà esclusiva, come profeta anti- establishment. Gli accademici lo tollerano in quanto compositore... un’eccezione! per il mondo del rock. Chi lo vuole un giullare simbolo della trasgressione più anarcoide.....

  • Frank Zappa –
    Frank Zappa – Halloween 81 (67:53 + 63:56 + 58:13 + 73:26 + 76:51 +76:52, 6 CDs,Zappa Family Trust, 2020) He’s back to thrill and chill you! Die legendären Zappashows zu Halloween in New York gehen in die nächste Runde. Nachdem bereits die Jahre 1973 und 1977 gewürdigt wurden, sind nun die drei Shows vom 31.10. bzw. 1.11.1981 an der Reihe. Die Auftritte vom 31.10. wurde damals sogar bei MTV (!) ausgestrahlt, während das Material teilweise später auf diversen Alben und Veröffentlichungen Verwendung fand. Die zweite Show kursiert durch die zeitgleiche Live- Übertragung im Radio seit einigen Jahren ebenfalls als Bootleg („Nasty Rats – Live At The Palladium New York 1981“). Die ersten beiden Shows (8 P.M./12 P.M.) entstanden übrigens an einem Abend mit komplett unterschiedlichem Songmaterial und dokumentieren jeweils über zwei Stunden lang die präzise und mitreißende Spielfreude der damaligen Bandbesetzung. Ende der 70er / Anfang der 80er warZappa zwar gewohnt produktiv wie immer, veröffentlichte stilistisch unterschiedliche Alben von modernen Orchesterwerken („London Symphony Orchestra“), Rockoper („Joe’s Garage“) bis hin zu jede Menge Rockalben. Doch trotz des gewaltigen Outputs erreichte er leider nicht mehr die Qualität seiner essentiellen Meisterwerke der 70er, während er und seine wechselnden Mitstreiter auf der Bühne immer noch grandiose Performances boten. So steht bei „Halloween 81“ in erster Linie das konzeptionell geprägte 81er Doppelalbum „You Are What You Is“ im Fokus, wobei bei jedem der drei Konzerte der musikalische Schwerpunkt neben diesem Album und weiterem 80er Jahre Material etwas anders gewählt wurde. CD1+2 greifen vor allem auf „Sheik Yerbouti“ zurück (logischerweise auch mit ‚Bobby Brown‘), CD3+4 bieten diverse Songs von „Zappa In New York“ / „Joe’s Garage“, während CD5+6 zu Beginn sehr tief mit sound- und spieltechnisch modifizierten Klassikern aus den 70ern (u.a.

    Mellard: Home with the Armadillo Home with the Armadillo: Public Memory and Performance in the 1970s Austin Music Scene Jason Dean Mellard 8 Produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press, 2010 1 Greezy Wheels performing at the Armadillo World Headquarters. Photo courtesy of the South Austin Popular Culture Center. Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 10 [2010], Iss. 1, Art. 3 “I wanna go home with the Armadillo Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene The friendliest people and the prettiest women You’ve ever seen.” These lyrics from Gary P. Nunn’s “London Homesick Blues” adorn the wall above the exit from the Austin Bergstrom International Airport baggage claim. For years, they also played as the theme to the award-winning PBS series Austin City Limits. In short, they have served in more than one instance as an advertisement for the city’s sense of self, the face that Austin, Texas, presents to visitors and national audiences. The quoted words refer, if obliquely, to a moment in 9 the 1970s when the city first began fashioning itself as a key American site of musical production, one invested with a combination of talent and tradition and tolerance that would make of it the self-proclaimed “Live Music Capital of the World.”1 In many ways, the venue of the Armadillo World Headquarters served as ground zero for these developments, and it is often remembered as a primary site for the decade’s supposed melding of Anglo-Texan traditions and countercultural lifestyles.2 This strand of public memory reveres the Armadillo as a place in which

Petit essai d'analyse généalogique : 200 Motels de Frank Zappa (1971) Avertissement (sons de klaxon) Dans cet article, je me propose d'analyser le film 200 Motels de Frank Zappa à partir de deux généalogies. Tout d'abord, les spectacles et les formes de divertissements qui sont apparus en Amérique du Nord au 19e et au début du 20e siècle. Ensuite, le cinéma musical hollywoodien de 1929 à 1960. Après avoir sommairement présenté ces deux corpus, je m'efforcerai de penser le film de Zappa à l'aune de ces deux mondes et de certaines de leurs caractéristiques. Je conclurai par une réflexion à propos des méthodes d'analyses que l'on peut mobiliser pour aborder un film musical et le répertoire rock.
