I have heard a live performance of FZ and John Lennon.Lennon sang a song that I don't believe was ever previously recorded.
I have also heard Sting performing MURDER BY NUMBERS with FZ.
Are there any other musicians like them who also performed with FZ?

The song to which you refer is titled "Well!", and was originally recorded in 1958 by The Olympics as the B-side to their hit single "Western Movies". Most listeners mistakenly believe the title to be "Baby, Please Don't Go".

"Murder By Numbers" was originally recorded by The Police as the B-side to their hit single "Every Breath You Take".

Thanks,is there a recording of the session with Pink Floyd?
I will have to look up Al DiMeola.Not many music opportunities or libraries here on Phuket,in fact we were lucky to see Eric Clapton in Bangkok recently.

I thought Al was from Elizabeth but I did a search and it looks like he was raised in Bergenfield.

Mr.Sting did Murder by numbers with Frank during his last show at Chicago's beautful Auditorum theatre at which he was informed that he had just won an award (Grammy) for Jazz from hell as best jazz album. GREAT SHOW :D :D
