Frank Zappa
In the world of music there is one truly creative man who shines above all others. That man is Frank Zappa. He's one of the few musicians ever to have the balls to do things differntly than everyone else. He is quite possibly the most destinctive and creative artist of the 20th century, although his refusal to conform to the expectations of the record buying public have left him, for the most part, unpopular and unknown. His music ranges from the silly to the most beautiful instramental music you could ever hope to hear. His guitar playing is unconventional and consistantly brilliant. Although a few people in history have wrote music with equally creative content, no one has ever surpassed the music of Frank Zappa. The following quote has been included to make this page look authentic. "It's like being a cook. And if you were a really good cook, and you had a lot of money for really excellent ingredients and really good equipment, then you could cook just about anything. But if you don't have all the gear . . . and you don't even own a cookbook, but you still want to eat, and nobody's going to cook it for you, then you better find some other way to improvise that dish. And that's kind of the way the stuff gets put together."
This page has been created with the above quote in mind. It was improvised form the tools I had available. Hopefully it will be cooler than your parents. I created this page because I think Frank Zappa is the bee's knees and I just had to say it. Carl Sagan has alerted me that if I uploaded one great thing about Zappa per second, it would take approximately 94 billion billion billion years to put them all on my web sight so I'll have to put up a bunch of links to get some help from my fellow Zappaphiles. E-mail me at IronBadger@aol.com if you dig the groovy tunes of Frank Zappa. The photo in the upper left is © Poul-Erik Rath Holm
