The Zappa Band Concert History

Frank Zappa alumni play his music live again! The Zappa Band is Mike Keneally (1987-1988), Ray White (1976-1984), Robert Martin (1981-1988) and Scott Thunes (1981-1988). Each musician played in the studio and on the road with Zappa during his career. Three of these alums played on ZAPPA '88: The Last U.S. Show, the most recent offering from Zappa Records & Universal Music. The Zappa alums are joined by Joe Travers and Jamie Kime, who are no strangers to FZ's music, to round out the ensemble.
