Lörrach. If it was the price "votes" for the most entertaining performance, he would fall to Dweezil Zappa and his group for the two and a half hour show Saturday in the market. And you should update the map of "Freak Out!" – Hotspots, the album of Frank Zappas of 1966, Lörrach belonged to him.
Since Markus Muffler confessed to the zappa fan by leading Burghof and leading the votes, there were already some Zappa tributes in Lörrach. Remember the concerts of the "Grandmothers of the Invention" (2013, 2018), partly filled with former members of the "Mothers of the Invention" of Zappa, at the same time. appearance of the 2017 Grandsheiks, which will be followed by another in February 2019, and of course at Dweezil Zappa's concert in Burghof two years ago.
"Much closer to our great idol," Muffler rejoices on stage, before Dweezil Zappa is greeted by euphoric applause on the half-full market. "We brought a lot of music for you," promised Dweezil. And really: In his current program of 150 minutes "Choice Cuts" he has packed a few rare gems in addition to his father's classics, so that Zappa lovers of all stripes should have their money worth 45 euros.
"Andy" (1975), with sharp variations of style and rhythm, bizarre twists, alternating melodic parts with complex drum finesse and absolute group precision, sets the tone. "Lonely Little Girl" (1967), nicknamed "Oldie but Goodie" by Dweezil, passes smoothly in "Flakes" (1979)
Saxophonist Scheila Gonzalez takes the odd role of talking, including reprimanding Craftsman (flakes here are Sleepyheads) and the parody of Bob Dylan.

New addition Adam Minkoff turns out to be a great asset, multi-instrumentalist and singer with a zappaesque attitude. Meanwhile, singer Cian Coey sweeps the scene in such songs as "Tell Me You Love Me" (1970) with a vocal volume between Janis Joplin and Tina Turner. Scheila Gonzalez, winner of a Grammy, multi-instrumentalist and from the beginning, receives applause again and again. Such a great saxophonist is rarely heard. Meanwhile, Dweezil himself plays his furious solos in a relaxed posture and with a smile on his face
A highlight in the long setlist is "Absolutely Free" (1967), also because Frank does not Never performed live. Meat ", in which some spectators dance the excitement, as well as" Sleep Napkins ", a fusion of songs" Black Napkins "and" Sleep Dirt "and one of the plays played that Frank did not not officially released, not forgetting "The Black Page" (1978) with a brilliant drum solo filled with nested triplets and quintuplets by Ryan Brown Dweezil and the band were embraced with enthusiastic applause.
