However, from the vaults, you might this clip
from a coffee shop gig over a year ago:

That was me on keyboards and bass, and Zori on congas.
Guess which Zappa song. Hint: not Inca Roads.
Variations on the Carlos Santana Secret Chord Progression?
Good guess, but no.
It's a somewhat obscure track, and it was definitely not latin/samba in the original.
In fact, the original was such a radically different feel, that I think even the most
hardcore Zappa fans might not be able to guess it.
A few weeks after that gig, I played the song again at the same cafe with my friend Dan on
drums, who is a serious Zappa fan with an encyclopedic knowledge of his stuff. We grooved
on it for about 10 minutes, and he didn't guess what it was.
Good luck. :-)
