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!

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.

“Brown shoes don’t make it.”

“Watermelon in Easter Hay” remains one of the best guitar instrumentals ever composed. Easily the equal of “Diamond Head” by Phil Manzanara.

Love Frank. He used to play Halloweens in NYC.

I was dubious, but go see Dweezil do Zappa plays Zappa. Great show.

The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe.
