He saw over time very frightening changes which, and he predicted this, have placed us on the brink of a coup d’etat of “The West”. I forgot to mention his music. Most people who know little about him think very different things about FZ’s musical art than those who love it. A very accessible & untypical piece is “Watermelons in the hay”. My favourite version of that is by his son, Dweezil, in London 2013. Search “Watermelons in the hay, London 2013”. He had several genres he liked a lot, none of which overlap what classifies as “Popular music”.

Thank you, Media Collection. FZ was very willing to be asked questions and I cannot remember him not answering a reasonable question. He was pretty good at clipping stupid or trick questions to the outfield. Modify, if he didn’t answer, it was (as an example) because to pick out a band played a lot on American radio as “terrible music” would just be gratuitous. On most other things, he has an opinion. An understatement! For example: “There are certain functions in a society you’d like to be able to rely on. I’d like to be able to rely on a doctor to fix you up, a dentist maybe to fix your teeth, maybe a lawyer to help you with things that are really legal, an honest judge, all these things, they’re gone, folks, they’re all gone”. He was always worth listening to.

Where his ideas came only he knows but the musicians he chose to realise his vision were amongst the most talented of every generation he touched.

I love this man, Frank Zappa. Interestingly, tho, as smart as he was, he didn't know the importance of caring rightly for his health. He smoked cigarettes, which doubtless contributed to his prostate cancer--which killed him. Of course, there are always other factors in the development of chronic degenerative diseases, like the stresses he was under for work, travel, etc. I wish he had known about that. He was a creative genius and had a brilliant mind that would be very useful to the world nowadays.

He knew already back then that drugs are harmfull when they´re ilegal, since ilegal they still are around. Common sense. He´s stone in most interviews, but it´s weed and he´s not driving nor operating someones heart or liver... And, like the excelent Joker that he was (see historical genuine Joker purppose-not to entertain the king at all, but to ground him...) his irony, sarcasm ans satire are perfect and educated and polite. We never needed real Jokers like we do now, and we have a few, in the form of stand up comedians with real social critique. Hicks, carlin, Burr, Tosh, etc...Stand up comedy- with these real joker types, not the bs comedians- needs to be put in a place of relevance on mainstream, somehow.

Look at some inner city`s in Europe like Amsterdam; it is hell on earth for a regular person who is not on drugs. Becourse of its semi legalaty and easy acses; it became "the!" atraction for anyone who wants it in his "livestile." Starts living of that industry. By fooling, stealing, and not be abel to deal with a regular normal working society as being constantly under its influance. Everything in Amsterdam is a hashish decision; a whole city center (expanding) commercialy in to the dope game. Also the so called progressives in parliament, KLM (Dutch Royal Flying Assholes) even if there is no witch- hunt on dealers or users the overall anarchie around the phenomenom atracts the wrong kind of people from allover the world. Made Amsterdam the wurst city to visit if you don`t wanne use the stuff still thrown at you and won`t be abel to avoid it.

Frank Vincent Zappa[1]​ (Baltimore, Maryland; 21 de diciembre de 1940-Los Ángeles, California; 4 de diciembre de 1993) fue un compositor, guitarrista, cantante, productor discográfico y director de cine estadounidense. Con una carrera de más de treinta años, Zappa compuso rock, jazz, blues, electrónica, música artística y música concreta, entre otros. También trabajó como director de cine y de videoclips, y diseñó portadas de álbumes. Además, se encargó de la producción de los más de sesenta álbumes que grabó con The Mothers of Invention y en solitario.[2]​

Frank Zappa,. Great character

Based on the first interview with Larry King regarding the TV time slot issue I can surmise that Mr. Zappa was smart enough to see the flaws in democracy. A bit like, though I'm not saying they're similar people, Aleister Crowley noted fascism, communism, democracy to all be farces. I wonder what Frank thought about monarchism or if he ever said much about it?

Frank had the patience of a saint. If I had to be civil to all those talking head fools in the media, I'd end up strangling one of them.

Wow, Larry really tried to bust Franks balls here, but Frank was super smart as always!!!
