Hot Rats

I have the album, and I have completely worn it out. Excellent music, more Jazz influenced than Rock. 

Amazing yes, genius absolutely, highly productive, sarcastic with style, had a lot of filler though.

He left early.

The lesson...get your prostate checked on a regular basis.

A year and half ago or so Dweezil did a Hot Rats tour and I was lucky enough to get third row seats in my hometown of Columbus OH. Amazing show and a great tribute to his father. He must have had eight band members including an amazing female vocalist. Dweezil showed restraint on his guitar most of the time but once in while started shooting out sparks. 

Hot Rats is great, and I love 'Willie the Pimp' with Capt Beefheart. But I like 'Waka-Jawaka' even better than 'Hot Rats'. I've seen Dweezil a few times, and that guy can SHRED; I prefer his guitar playing to his dad's, as it doesn't depend on wah-wah so much. But my favorite FZ is from 'Freak Out' through 'Uncle Meat', and I'll throw in 'Lonesome Cowboy Bert' from '200 Motels'!
