      Most people I don't play Zappa to, because they sit there with a confused look on their face and/or ask me to something else on..
      I would only play Zappa to those who I know are Zappa fans (but I don't really know any anymore), or there's a chance they might like it...
      Echidna's Arf & Wash Thing on Roxy is one of my fave Zappa compositions 🙂

      Hello I believe you are correct , Frank Zappa was the ultimate, amazing man it was told that he always had pen and paper in hand, always writing music. The two mumians who influenced the most were Cat Stevens and Frank Zappa. I was able to see him perform over 15 times.

      you obviously don't realize what level Frank was on.Steely Dan didn't do anything like this,neither did Hendrix. I was watching Jimi at the Royal Albert Hal after 35 minutes I was getting sick to my stomach. Like Frank use to say only a small portion of his audience really understand what he's doing. I knew at 14 what he was doing and saved my money to see him over 30 times in NYC from 74-88. I stood right in front of him at the famous Ritz show in NYC,there has never been a musical performance as great as that show EVER.

      They punch the clock. I haven't seen them because their father only charged 2 hours of my labor to see a show, but these guys want my grocery money. When Frank died, I really hoped Dweezil would take up the mantle. They play it well, but I can stay home and hear it with Frank and maybe an idea will occur.

    This is so cool just found the cartoons with music by FZ, been a fan of FZ since 1967 and Freakout . And eyeopener for a young naive girl who didn't know a whole lot till FZ was given to her. It was all down hill from there lol Still love FZ music for yrs I could not listen to music like this till FZ then through the yrs my ears got a music lesson from FZ, now I can listen to many different kinds of music, and enjoy it. The instrumentals really helped with my ADHD, when I was working out side my home I could listen to cd's at work which was allowed the job was sorting stuffing incentives and sorting mail. And now retired can listen anytime ;) Happy 4th of July to all;)

    Regarding the meaning of the "old grey whistle test:"
    Some pop tune songsmiths would test a new song out on the building's doormen, who wore long grey coats.
    They'd whistle the melody to them, and if they could repeat it back, and said they liked it, they knew the song was catchy and hook-y enough.
