ZAPPANALE #27 - PART 7 - THE GRANDMOTHERS

The 27th edition of the Zappanale festival had a beautiful surprise: The Grandmothers (Don Preston, Bunk Gardner plus Chris Garcia) would be performing together with Fried Dähn's Yellow String Quartet, and would feature special guest Ed Mann.

The combination Grandmothers / Yellow String Quartet had already been tested and approved in Oslo last year.
At the Zappanale, the Yellow String Quartet was able gave Don and Bunk a lot of freedom. The quartet (plus Chris) kept it tight, while the former Mothers Of Invention could do their thing.
It worked.
Add Ed Mann, who added soundscapes and nice improvisations
It was great.


The show got recorded on video and was made available on DVDR at the festival.
