Early Zappa: Frank on the Steve Allen Show

Published by clarkspicks at 5:03 am under TV

These two clips are of a 1963 appearance of a young, clean cut, soft spoken Frank Zppa, who somehow talked his way onto he Steve Allen show to perform a “Concerto For Two Bicycles, Electronic Sounds and Orchestra.” One of my FDP friends alerted me to these gems.

That was a classic.

Thank you very much for the trip down memory lane.

I had forgotten about Steve Allen.

Excellent! That Frank was a crazy cat, wasn’t he?! And a WICKED, WICKED genius. Thanks for the memories.

What treasures - the wife and I thoroughly enjoyed watching these. FZ is sorely missed in our house.

Welcome to Clark's picks, a blog about music.
One day I was cruising YouTube, playing videos of various guitarists and I said to my wife " I'm just amazed that I can be sitting here watching Doc Watson's fingers for free." It dawned on me that it would be a valuable service to share these gems with other people. The videos posted here are the ones that really caught my eye.
