Hey kids! Today would have been the 78th birthday or Frank Zappa, one of the most important figures in 20th century music! Whether you know him as a humorist and satirist, a political activist, or a brilliant composer, one thing is inarguable: Frank knew how to write some MONSTER riffs, and influenced TONS of bands like Clutch, Mastodon, Rage Against the Machine, and many more. So as a tribute, on today's episode of Weekend Wankshop, i'm going to be showing you all how to play the top 5 BEST Frank Zappa riffs of all time!
Lots of cool stuff to work on here to improve your phrasing, riff writing, and picking skills. We are also gonna be talking scales, intervals, and time signature counting tricks!
I got into Frank's music many years ago after first seeing Dweezil Zappa's incredible Zappa Plays Zappa band, so hopefully hearing these will get you inspired to check out his music, too!

    In '77 I had 2nd row center tickets in L.A. I was...partaking heavily...and kept screaming "Muffin Man" while standing on my seat, after every song. A little way in he walked over, leaned over, and motioned with his hand down, saying "O.K., we've had our fun, now calm down". When he finally started the song he came over with a big smile and pointed at me.

    Capt'n Shred Dweezil was just here with his Choice Cuts Tour and let a young kid from the audience play drums on Muffin Man. I'm not sure if that was actually planned, but he also had a guest singer from the local School of Rock sing Valley Girl. Probably my least favorite FZ song, but it was very cool to see a young teenager performing even that FZ song. After all, Dweezil has said from the beginning that his main purpose is to bring his dad's music to a generation that would never otherwise hear it.

    TheGuitar Person Frank Zappa pretty much was a genre all his own. Hilarious, a little sarcastic, and didn’t exactly write lyrics like the usual stuff you’d hear. A little bizarre even, some probably thought he was out there on drugs or something, as I understand it he never touched the stuff. But the music, his guitar work were second to none ahead of his time and still none quite like him now.

    He was not ahead of his time. If he was, we'd all be listening to his style of music today. But instead, music peaked with Zappa, and then it deteriorated to the point that it died. And today, it's completely gone. There's nothing left but the shit that would've never gotten signed during the golden age.

    Frank was a true Artist, rock's closest thing to a true renaissance man. He has been acclaimed as a genius for his versatility. He was a brilliant guitarist, a superb composer, a matchless bandleader, a movie producer, a record company executive, a human rights activist and an incomparable social satirist. He started out in the 60's as the leader of the zany avant-rock pioneers the Mothers. His subsequent solo work encompassed everything from jazz-rock to orchestral pieces, always delivered with Zappa's trademark humor. He succumbed to cancer in 1993, but the mind-boggling prolific workaholic left behind a staggering body of work. Genius is an overused word in pop, but it applies to Zappa in spades. I had the opportunity of speaking to Frank in the cafeteria when he was doing a show in Coral Gables at the University of Miami back in '76 ..... a great pleasure to talk to.

    Hey! “Magic Fingers”!!! Such an appropriately named tune! Man, it took me weeks to work out that riff from the record, back in the mid 70’s! And even longer to be able to play it at the right tempo! I learnt more from that riff in a fortnight than the previous 5 years practicing scales. And the same goes for “five, Five, FIVE”! The time signature on that tune is wicked. The use of unusual time signatures reminds me of the “What’s New In Baltimore” riff.

It was such an amazing show, Terry Bozzio and Steve vai, my head just about exploded. After it was over Dweezil comes out and says they need to redo several songs because mistakes, ended up being a 3 1/2 hour show. Just went and saw them again on November 26th, even though he band was stripped down a bit it was a great show.

Given this, I heard a lot of Frank's music growing up, but it didn't really stick for me. Took me about 10 years of playing guitar and rediscovering his discography for it to click. The dude was an absolute genius, both musically, lyrically and as a social commentator. Absolute madman.

    My friend you have a New sub. Not many guitar players tackle zappa joints. Excellent work!

    Love it, Ben! Bit late now, but I would also add Zomby Woof. It’s a veritable cornucopia of slum-demolishing mammoth riffs.

    Been a fan of Frank since as a young lad I secretly listened to my brothers record and tape collection, strictly out of bounds, and found that he had one tape of Zappa, Apostrophe. Loved it and was singing by heart all the way through high school. Then grew up and bought all the rest. Frank was and still is the best.
