KensterSadly it seems many folks have really robbed themselves a great deal by being thrown off by some of Frank's obvious cynicsm
or seemingly sophomoric lyrical excesses, and as a result never really listened
to FZ, which is a damn shame because FZ has to be not only one of the most killer jazz guitarists ever, but has had some of the best
most accomplished and sympatico bandmates and ofttimes amazing synergy, but he is IMHO one of a handful of serious American Geniuses, Musical and otherwise Aaron Copeland etc.
FZ's writing brilliance is incredible in so many ways, and his integrity
is unparalled, he's never sold out in the least !
I haven't always found all of FZ's stuff immediately accessable
as I'm anything but well versed in Classical or jazz but I've eventually come to appreciate and truly love pretty much everything
he's done.Aside from all that FZ was also a very fine human being, ever hear the story of his motive for firing Lowell George and Roy Estrada ?
Kind regards Fred
