“Eruption” Zappa Style
by Michael
Dweezil Zappa – “Eruption” (YouTube)
My brother-in-law sent this one over… You’ve got to love Dweezil for all his self-deprecating “aww shucks” modesty before ripping a killer version of Van Halen’s signature crescendo. The 2009 Zappa Plays Zappa tour will be canvasing the rest of the world though June. You can find the dates as well as other goodies at the official site.
No trackbacks yet.

Dweezil is on the top of my under-appreciated guitarist list. He may not have his old man’s compositional chops but he certainly has his gift for wringing some sweet sounds out of a Stratocaster!

Jeez’ Dweez! That’s pretty good.
