Frank Zappa Appreciation Thread

I'm looking forward to viewing Roxy The Movie! Uncle Meat is great. My first album was Absolutely Free

I saw Zappa 7 times over the decades. The first time was in the summer of 1967 at an amusement park called Lagoon. Frank's opening line was "Salt Lake City Sucks"

Jimi Hendrix and The Doors played there the same year.

I went to high school with Tom Fowler in SLC, & my brother knew Bruce. Their dad taught music at Westminster College, they had the hottest Jazz band in Utah.

Oddly enough, over the years, I have really come to appreciate Jazz From Hell & Joe's Garage. Masterpieces both, though I always liked Joe's from the start!

I'm very glad to see that there are Mothers fans around here!
