DESCRIPTION:
Don Preston is a rock, jazz, classical and electronic musician who first joined Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention ensemble in 1966. An active participant in the band's off-the-wall, outrageous stage shows, his classically trained keyboard techniques were first heard on 1967's Absolutely Free, and he continued as part of the band until 1969's Uncle Meat, when Zappa disbanded the original Mothers.
