I don't have Hot Rats, but I have Frank's classics - Overnite Sensation and Apostrophe, and The Mothers of Invenstion "Freak Out" (LP reissues). I love them since my childhood.
Lucky to have seen him three times in concert. Was listening to Brunt Weeny Sandwich just a couple weeks back. One of my all time favorites of his. Too many great works to pick just one.
His levelheaded, televised evisceration of Tipper’s PMRC inanity was a wonder to behold.
I don’t think he would have minded what we thought of him as long as it was honest.….
i finally couldn’t stand it and bought the Complete Hot Rats Sessions box….it IS occasionally excessive…but so was he….and I seriously doubt we’d be hearing it if he was still alive. RIP
Zappa was a genius, a serious atheist (I loved his biography), a great guitar player, a sexist creep, and for my tastes his music is essentially unlistenable pretentious nonsense.
