Ruth had left by the time I saw Frank in the 80s. Ed Mann was awesome.

For the record....for ALLLLLLLL the abuse Zappa took over his lyrics being sexist, racist ____ist, take a gander at the Roxy & Elsewhere lineup...

From L to R, by back, middle, front row: Napoleon Murphy Brock, Jeff Simmons, Chester "Genesis touring drummer" Thompson, Ruth, Tom Fowler, (THE) George Duke, Ralph Humphries, FZ, Walt Fowler.

Frank was a capitalist, hated unions, and hired the best. Suck it, bitchez.

I saw Zappa 5 times. Each show was outstanding. He always delivered.

Frank Zappa - Echidna's Arf (Of You) / Don't You Ever Wash That Thing?

Ladies and Gentlemen, Watch Ruth.
All through this film,
Ruth has been thinking,
What can I possibly do
That will amaze everyone?

I think she's come up with the answer, just keep your eye on her...
