I saw him perform at the Baltimore Civic Center (His home turf...Baltimore) on Mothers Day back on May 11th 1980. He brought his mother out on the stage and introduced her! Definatly an excellent show!

PHI ZAPPA CRAPPA! Most everyone I ever talked to about him they either loved or hated his music!

The Duke of Prunes!
Plastic People!
Penguine in Bondage!
The Illionies Emema Bandit!

I have every official Zappa album made, and quite a few 'others' too - in my opinion, there's no-one else in music even comes close for the breadth and depth of his work, and his determination to market it on his own terms.

It's a rare day that there's no FZ played in this household...I'm playing the latest album 'Wazoo' right now...:)

THE MUD SHARK DANCING LESSON!

Mud Sh-sh-shark
We're gonna do a little dancing,
A little dancing thing called the Mud Shark
Now, this dance started up in Seattle

Lemme tell you 'bout the Mud Shark...
The origins of the Mud Shark are as follows: There's a motel in Seattle, Washington called the Edgewater Inn. The Edgewater Inn's built on a pier.. so that means that when you look out your window you don't see any dirt -- it's got a bay or something out in your backyard,,, And to make it even more interesting, in the lobby of the aforementioned motel there's a bait and tackle shop where the residents can go down whenever they want to, and rent a fishing pole and some preserved minnows and schlep back up to their rooms, open the window, stick their little pole outside and within a few minutes actually catch a fish of some sort that they can bring into their motel room and do whatever they want with it... you know what I mean? Now in this bay there's quite a variety of ah... fish! Not only do they have mud sharks up there, they got little octopusses that you can catch. And all these denizens of the deep can come in real handy... Let's say you were a travelling Rock and Roll band called the Vanilla Fudge. Let's say one night you checked into the Edgewater Inn Motel with a 8mm movie camera, enough money to rent a pole, and just to make it more interesting -- a succulent young lady (Mnaaaah!) with a taste for the bizarre... My mind drifts back to a meeting, a chance meeting in the Chicago O'Hare Airport where the members of the Vanilla Fudge told Don Preston about a home movie they made at the Edgewater Inn with a Mud Shark. I'm gonna tell you, this dance, the Mud Shark, is sweeping the ocean!...

Out
You go out
So far out
You do the Mud Shark. baby ... etc

(Well . . . )
Ahem. In the dark
Where all the fevers grow
Under the water (Yeah . . . )
Where the shark bubbles blow
In the mornin' (Mornin' . . .) (Well . . .)
By yer radio
Do the walls close in t' suffocate ya
You ain't got no friends . . .
An' all the others: they hate ya
Does the life you been livin' gotta go? Hmm?
Well, lemme straighten you out
About a place I know . . .
(Get yer shoes 'n socks on people,
It's right aroun' the corner,
Over by Tom Waits restaurant)
Out through the night
An' the whispering breezes
To the place where they keep
The Imaginary Diseases,
Out through the night
An' the whispering breezes
To the place where they keep
The Imaginary Diseases . . .

Now, ladies and gentlemen,
Scientists call this disease
Bromidrosis
But us regular folks
Who might wear tennis shoes
Or an occasional python boot
Know this exquisite little inconvenience
By the name of
(Now watch this):
STINK FOOT
(Yes, indeed.)
Y'know, my python boot is too tight
I couldn't get it off last night
A week went by, an' now it's July
I finally got it off
An' my girl-friend cry,
She said: "STINK FOOT!
STINK FOOT, darlin'
Your STINK FOOT puts the hurts on my nose!
STINK FOOT! STINK FOOT! I ain't lyin',
Can you rinse it off, d'you suppose?"
Here Fido . . . Here Fido . . .
Bring the slippers, little puppy . . .
That's a good dog!
"Arf, arf, arf!"
Sick . . .

the poodle bites,the poodle chews it

i think the second album i ever bought was "overnight sensation", followed shortly by "apostrophe". he was the first concert i went to. zappa was really sui generis; can you really think of any other rock/pop artist that was like him?

zappa/mothers/roxy/elsewhere ... think that was the one with flo and eddie on it ... "freak out", "weasel ripped my flesh", "cheepnis", "why does it hurt when i pee" LOL great stuff

the mothers of invention ... only band name that i like better is, the stooges.

I should ahve payed more attention to this thread

I have a hard time finding anything frank did as anything less than out of this world

saw him, saw ZPZ (the dweez)

The infamous helsinki concert (you cnat do that on stage vol 2) is my favorite published live show

Information is not knowledge
Knowledge is not wisdom
Wisdom is not truth
Truth is not beauty
Beauty is not love
Love is not music
Music (and dank a$$ chronic) are THE BEST...
