I came across this the other day. Prob a bit boring for some but I found it very interesting and enlightening. He's pretty straight up with all the questions

I've fallen in love.
I'm doing an extra credit assignment for my Spanish class and I'm doing it on Frank Zappa.
He's not hispanic, but my teacher doesn't know that; when it comes to music she's about as knoledgeable as a scab.

Frank Zappa is probably my favorite musician, he just has so much variety within his discography, that it's hard to really get tired of listening to him.

My current top 3 albums by Zappa:

Hot Rats
Uncle Meat
Over-Nite Sensation

Other favorites include Freak Out, Apostrophe, We're only in it for the money, The Grand Wazoo, and 200 Motels. In a month the top 3 will probably be different.

I know the post is a couple of months old, but just had to applaud you on how awesome that is. Have you read his book "The Real Frank Zappa Book" by any chance? If not, I highly recommend it. I guarantee it to be a good read for any Zappa appreciator.
