| | Baby Snakes DVD Frank Zappa CDS
 (9 Customer Reviews)
Frank Zappa's highly acclaimed film from 1979 includes over three hours of outrageous Zappa musical performances and unique & bizarre Claymation from Bruce Bickford. This is the full-length version of the film as it premiered at the Victoria Theatre in Times Square, New York during Christmas week of 1979. There is live footage from a 1978 Halloween Frank Zappa concert in New York and includes backstage footage and lots of goofing off. Part one of this collection provides on and offstage glimpses of arcane behavior engaged in by Zappa and musicians Adrian Belew, Terry Bozzio, Roy Estrada, Ed Mann, Patrick O'Hearn, Tommy Mars, and Peter Wolf. It's described as a movie about people who do stuff that is not normal. Part two is a guided tour through the depths of Zappa's Barfko-Swill Mail Order Company and ends with the music video "Peaches en Regalia." Baby Snakes Reviews: "[A]s warped and joyful and Zappa himself."

Baby Snakes film
 $13.85 
Frank Zappa paved the way for future generations of avant garde musicians with his angular interpretation of rock 'n' roll. Influenced by a diverse array of artists (everything from Buddy Holly to Stockhausen), Zappa had an eye for perverse, offbeat and humorous lyrics, in tandem with off-kilter melodies and theatrical concert performances. DOES HUMOUR BELONG IN MUSIC? is a perfect example of Zappa's zany stagecraft, taken from his 1984 tour.
It is almost 10 years since one of rock’s most accomplished composers passed away. Frank Zappa, a man whose music paid homage to contemporary classical figures such as Stravinsky and Stockhausen, as well as late-'50s doo-wop ...

| | Frank Zappa - The Dub Room Special DVD (1982)
Baby Snakes DVD
$11.49
Starting in 1974 and continuing for nearly a decade, Frank Zappa's annual Halloween concerts were a New York City institution. When the avant-rocker scored a Top 40 hit with "Valley Girl" in 1982, he skipped that year's Halloween performance and instead chose to premiere a 90-minute documentary called FRANK ZAPPA'S DUB ROOM at New York's Ritz Theater. Produced, directed, written, conducted, composed, arranged, and performed by Zappa, the documentary was comprised of two concerts--the 1981 Halloween show at the Palladium, and the December 1974 KCET television special, A TOKEN OF HIS EXTREME--as well as animation by claymation artist and longtime Zappa collaborator, Bruce Bickford. Released on home video in 1982, the Dub Room special has long remained a hard-to-find rarity, but this program rewards Zappa devotees with a presentation of the documentary in its entirety (albeit in a slightly different version after being remastered in 1992) for a fitting tribute to rock's ultimate renaissance man.
Instead of Zappa's yearly Halloween pilgrimage ...
