Of all Zappa's drummers, I think Bozzio had the most savage phrasing. I was just checking out some live Missing Persons gig and he was just an absolute animal.

Mad props to both of these amazing musicians.

Thanks to this channel for putting together that Zappa drummer roundtable kind of thing. Really enjoyed it.

Terry's performances with Frank were absolutely FEARLESS and PEERLESS in a multitude of ways. Who else had the exceptional musical talent AND the balls to sport only a pair of black speedos and deliver a drum & lead vocal performance as complex, edgy, and uncomfortable as PUNKY'S WHIPS? NOBODY, not even remotely.

Loved Bozzio's playing with UK

Just imagine if Jeff Porcaro agreed Zappa's invitation in playing with him!

Speaking of the Dixie Dregs. I remember back in the 80's loaning my friend a tape of one of the Dregs albums. He was listening to it in his car and his girlfriend makes the remark, These guys are very good. We laughed our butts off.

Zappa could always pick out the best drummers. From Dunbar, Vinnie, Bozio, and Wackerman. But I also enjoy Portnoy with Niel Morse too. Another great band.

Never clicked faster!
And I'm a guitar player!

'Learning from The Black Page'. Well if you played Ionisation by Varese in school, and listened to Stravinsky you could understand where Frank was coming from.

2 of the best Gavin H is another great but he doesn't get the praise he deserves
