Hot Rats


Anyone here love Frank? He's a musical genius!

Hot Rats is great, and I love 'Willie the Pimp' with Capt Beefheart. But I like 'Waka-Jawaka' even better than 'Hot Rats'. I've seen Dweezil a few times, and that guy can SHRED; I prefer his guitar playing to his dad's, as it doesn't depend on wah-wah so much. But my favorite FZ is from 'Freak Out' through 'Uncle Meat', and I'll throw in 'Lonesome Cowboy Bert' from '200 Motels'! 

I never liked Frank's music at all (all very 'meh' to me), until I heard Hot Rats.

Apostrophe, Waka/Jawaka, Sheik Yerbouti, Just Another Band from L.A....

I will miss him always.

Love Zappa, but in the context of quality audio, which albums are sonically best?
