Frank Zappa taas

Right now I'm listening to an old LP-record - Frank Zappa and his Sleep Dirt. Filthy Habits is the name of the composition. As some may know Sleep Dirt was a purely instrumental LP. And it sounds still very much wonderful. At the time the music was created and recorded EVERYTHING had to be played FOR REAL. There were NO possibilities of digital fixes - in the mix. So - wow!! They could record on a different track and thus have many takes. But there were no chance to EDIT EVERYTHING - the way it is very much possible today. Nowadays it's possible to do quite much anything imaginable... But to play it LIVE and for real is something else ... Spider of Destiny is one of my all time favourites. Somehow the melody touches me...
