THE-ZAP playing a bicycle wheel on the “Tonight Show”.
The musicality is so-so but his discussion is quite fun (he appears to hold Steve Allen in low-position).
Good stuff!

Saw him in Muskegan, MI in the 80’s. Discovered him in the late 70’s.
Remarkable the catalog of great music he produced.
“For You” off Rubin and the Jets was our wedding song. ;)

At GA Southern in the middle 80s, our marching band did a lot of Zappa, mainly arranged by one of our drummers. Some of that's on YouTube. Just search GA Southern Zappa.
Yes, I had a whole shelf of Zappa LPs, and later, a whole shelf of Zappa CDs.
