ZAPPA BAND singer/guitarist/muse RAY WHITE joins for a fun and revealing chat. Y'all know Ray from his "Zappa Live In NewYork (1976)" appearance and he's been a key purveyor of Zappa music ever since. Ray and I are good pals and have toured together playing FZ's music with Andre Cholmondely's PROJECT/OBJECT, and I absolutely love picking Ray's brain about his FZ experiences and in particular, Frank's unique guitar style.
