I can't believe it. There's no thread about Frank Zappa. I don't even think he's even mentioned here. Anyone a fan? I sure am. He is one of the greatest guitarists of all time. No question about it. He was way ahead of his time when he started. He was incredibly talented and very infuential. He definitely deserves his own thread.

I havn't really had time to listen to alot of his stuff, but We're Only in it for the Money is my favorite so far.

One of his greatest albums is Sheik Yerbouti, in my opinion. I definitely recommend it to anyone who would like to hear more of Frank Zappa.

He's a very good guitarist, but I don't think that's his main strength. His composition skills and general musical understanding are exceptional.

My favourite album is Zappa in New York.

I agree.

I only have Hot Rats and Freak Out. I prefer Freak Out. Hot Rats is ok sometimes but it's mostly just technical boasting.

Zappa can do that.

I'm into Joe's Garage at the moment.

Yeah he can, but it get's redundant quickly as far as my interest in the song goes.

Have you listened to Sheik Yerbouti? I just can't get enough of it.
