I personally think the 200 motels soundtrack is ridiculously overlooked.



I also really like "Weasles Ripped My Flesh" personally.

How exactly would one go about introducing themselves to Zappa? Bearing in mind I've got absolutely no idea about him or his music.

Could send you links to bloody excellent FLAC uploads of some of his best if you want. I don't think there's really an "easy" way or perfect "place" to enter his discography, it's so diverse and large.

if you wanna have a thread on Zappa, aren't you like going to compartmentalise his music?

he straddled so many genres - pop, retro, showtunes, parodies, comedy music, psychedelia, jazz and just general instrumental rock
