Ian Underwood, born 5/22/1939 in New York, NY was the 'multi-instrumentalist' Zappa had been seeking in the late 60's to more fully present his musical ideas. Ian's "story" of meeting and joining Zappa is chronicled in the track Ian Whips It Out on the Uncle Meat release.

Among the more "significant" studio credits of his outside of Zappa - and there is a lot - is a song called "We Are The World."
