Cannonball Adderley együttesében játszott, majd Jean-Luc Ponty King Kong című lemezének felvételén ismerkedett meg Frank Zappával , akihez először 1970-ben csatlakozott, majd később 1973 és 75 között volt állandó zenésztársa a Mothersben .
Zappánál olyan klasszikus lemezeken játszott (és határozta meg alapvetően azok karakterét), mint a Chunga's Revenge 200 Motels Waka/Jawaka The Grand Wazoo Apostrophe (’) One Size Fits All Bongo Fury Roxy & Elsewhere
