  Ian Underwood
A remarkable multi-instrumentalist, Ian Underwood is best known as a member of The Mothers of Invention, having been enlisted by Frank Zappa to whip it out in 1967 (first documented on the 1968 release Uncle Meat).
After leaving the Mothers, Underwood worked as a session musician on numerous and varied projects, recording for everyone from Hungarian guitarist Gabor Szabo to easy-listening icon Barry Manilow.
Some other names that have enlisted the Underwood magic fingers at one time or the other are Lee Ritenour, Barbra Streisand, and Quincy Jones.

 ian underwood
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 Underwood Whips It Out' on the "Uncle Meat" release.
How current is your information that Ian is doing studio work in LA. I had heard that he had been living in Studio City, CA but had moved to the Northwest (Washington State or Oregon).

Ian follows with a keyboard solo, Frank takes another guitar solo, and Bennet concludes the whole affair with a soulful bass solo.
Ian continues to solo over this new, slow blues vamp, returning to the main "King Kong" theme and basing his solo on many variations of the theme.
Underwood's saxophone soars out of this musical stampede, with Frank answering this new challenge by taking his rhythm work into a more jazzy, "Chunga's"-esque direction.

Ian Underwood Whips It Out (Live on stage in Copenhagen)
Ian, with his music degree, is not a freak, and considers himself to be the "straight" (conservative) member of the band.
I doubt that the other meaning of "straight" (erect) "member" (penis) was intended by Ian when he spoke the line, but it was immediately exploited by FZ as he dropped in the "Wowie Zowie" comment.

 Stereophile: Frank Zappa on CD (and LP), Part I-III
In that spirit, this collection of big-band heads framing long instrumental solos by Zappa, keyboardist/saxist Ian Underwood, and violinists Sugarcane Harris and Jean-Luc Ponty, is, for the most part, expanded and spiffed up.
The change is all for the better: Underwood's previously heavily edited tenor sax solo makes a great deal more formal and dramatic sense unedited.
This is great, but, after the bridge, Underwood's dramatic organus maximus pedal-point---one of my favorite parts of this recording---is simply gone.

Once this is finished, we are off into Solo land, with Ponty, Trombone Fowler, an occasional Bass Fowler, an occasional Underwood, and finally an-always Frank giving us their all.
ECHIDNA’S ARF (OF YOU)- Referred to as “Excentrifugal Forz” at this early stage in its career, this is one of those Frank classics that emerges on the scene fully developed and damn near perfect from the start.
Then, later in his guitar solo during ”Chunga’s Revenge”, Frank returns to the melody of “Mr Green Genes”, leading the band into a short instrumental version of this tune, similar to the latter half of the song as it appears on TBBYNHIYL.

 Hot Rats: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
Other than another side project -- the doo wop tribute Cruising With Ruben and the Jets -- Hot Rats was also the first time Zappa focused his efforts in one general area, namely jazz-rock.
Elsewhere, his skill as a melodist was in full flower, whether dominating an entire piece or providing a memorable theme as a jumping-off point.
In addition to Underwood, the backing band featured contributions from Jean-Luc Ponty, Lowell George, and Don "Sugarcane" Harris, among others; still, Zappa is unquestionably the star of the show.
