Chunga’s Rockin’ In F# Mixolydian (Zappa-inspired guitar solo improvisation)

Published 2023-07-17
Zappa jams. Guitar solo improvisation on a backing track very very loosely based on the solo section of Frank Zappa’s Son Of Orange County from the famous Roxy & Elsewhere album. Although the backing track is incredibly simple, it’s a lot of fun to improvise on. The best way to listen to this is through speakers or headphones.

Backing track from GuitarShare:    • Son Of Orange County Jam Track  

Thanks a lot to Frank Zappa for all the awesome music he has given us!

Guitar: Charvel 1978 Amplifier: Fender Champion 40
Built-in effects: Gain and a tiny little bit Delay
Effect devices: Cry Baby Wah

Playing the backing track with: HP laptop with external Herman Kardon speakers
Recorded with: cell phone Samsung Galaxy A5
It's that simple. Therefore the sound quality is not the best. Just like my guitar playing technique…lol
