Not many people were talking about digital audio processing in 1973.

At 14:30 the interviewer asks an interesting question regarding his tech interests, he answered that he was in touch with people who were involved with digital processing of audio and Frank financed the construction of unique devices that do things he always wanted to hear . All this in 1973 ! Frank Zappa was a true genius and this is an example of why . Great interview and interviewer .

I saw this band 3 days later May on 13, 1973 with John Mcglauflin supporting on Mother's Day May 13, 1973, in Cincinnati.

It’s not a big deal, but the interviewer apparently didn’t get the correct information regarding the departure of Steely Dan’s original frontman. As everyone knows it didn’t hold them back one bit.

“ a person woud be a moron not to appreciate McLaughlin's technique. The guy has certainly found out how to operate a guitar as if it were a machine gun. But I'm not always enthusiastic about the lines I hear or the ways in which they're used. I don't think you can fault him, though, for the amount of time and effort it must have taken to play an instrument that fast. I think anybody who can play that fast is just wonderful. And I'm sure 90% of teenage America would agree, since the whole trend in the business has been "faster is better."

@famednacclaimed5336 what an egotistical arse! I guess Mclaughlin was good enough for Miles Davis.

Who is surprised FZ recognized Steely Dan as a great band early in 1973 ?

Very unfortunate how the tape cuts off just as he’s about to give his opinion about John McLaughlin. Was it intentional?

I wonder if Frank ever heard Tool?

I doubt it. It's possible, but it would've been a tight corner as Zappa died in late 1993. I think I had just heard Tool around November or December, and only because I was working at a record store and got an advance copy to play. "Opiate", I think it was. Obviously, Tool had heard a lot from Frank, but I don't think Zappa had the time left to return the favor.

@@windyhead7960 Nice. It does check out, but as I said, just barely. I'd just heard about Tool and then just as suddenly I learned Frank was gone. That was a cold December.
