Re: what is that song?

I have the Jan Akkerman "The Noise of Art " - superb! Doesn't he have others?

How about some Finch? Any band with a bass player named "Beer Klaasse" can't be all bad!
Actually, that wasn't a Zappa tune with GFR, it was a GFR tune with Zappa! He produced their 1976 album "Good Singin' Good Playin'" and he plays a solo on the song you heard, which is called 'Out To Get You'.

I have The Noise of Art too. Jan Akkerman has tons of solo material dating back to 1972, everything from lute music to blues to jazz to pop.

Never heard of Finch...I'll investigate. Beer the Bassist, eh?

Don't forget to tune in tomorrow at 9pm EST!
