Frank Zappa was a drummer before he was a guitarist and always had great drummers in his bands like Aynsley Dunbar. Frank himself was one of the great guitarists.
This clip is two of his tunes that merge into one. From way back in 1970, Oh No is Frank's response to the hippies and Beatles' claim that Love is the answer. The transition of this song to the instrumental Orange County Lumber Truck and its finishing lead break, are sublime.
Idolising Jimi Hendrix I am probably biased, but I loved the work of Mitch Mitchell, and Buddy Miles. Both completely different styles, Mitchell more jazz based and technically proficient, and Miles just heavy handed soul machine. Both of their styles complimented the musical direction Jimi was in at the stages they were with him.

Just as an aside I hate standing in Tasmania and watching those B-doubles driving past with all that rainforest wood. Bloody vandals.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
Yeah that's a classic stripped back version of Hear my train a comin'
Yes, it's also an up close and personal view of a soul that created the music, shy but electric with a guitar, even if it was an acoustic one in this clip

It's a fantastic performance Apparently someone handed him the 12 string (he'd never played one before) and said "Play something".
