Did he actually make any good albums or is it all wacky goofball xD garbage?
>>63224822
Listen and decide for yourself, stupid :D
>>63224822
>Freak out, Hot Rats, Absolutely Free, Uncle meat, Jazz from hell, Weasels ripped my flesh, Lumpy Gravy, Joe's Garage, the list goes on...
>>63224833
Seconded
>>63224822
Basically any of his instrumental jazz or classical stuff
>>63224822
You just made this thread.
>>63224822
He's a good musician OP
The Grand Wazoo is his greatest work.
Fight me.

hey there people, I'm bobby brown
Lift Your Skinny Fists was fucking amazing. Haven't listened to the rest of the discography, though obviously it wasn't just him.
>>63225068
Listened to the first bit earlier today. Really hyped to listen to the whole thing when I get a chance 2bh.
>>63224822
I fucking hate frank Zappa, I know somebody who cannot stop talking about him and how great he is and I've listened to a lot of his stuff in an attempt to understand this person's obsession but it's pretty much all wacky garbage. Even the instrumental stuff somehow manages to reek of his pretentious, unfunny sense of humor.

LYSF isn't by Frank Zappa
>>63225705
what about le aero plane over the deep web
>>63225713
oh by Radio West?
>>63225705
You just got memed on son!
>>63225730
No but they both shared the same label (Lelephant Sicks) I was talking about the ep by Swans Collective
>>63225759
Damn I must have been thinking of The Avery Island Store.
>>63224822
His general thing with the goofy covers and weird blend of genres is really off putting to me. I like Jazz from Hell but everything else just doesn't do it for me.
>>63225790
No, thats The Meme, pt 2 by Dr Phil Mangum
>>63225068
This.
>>63225068
truth
>>63225609
the second half is much better than the first
>>63224860
>>63225068
I feel like everyone forgets about Waka/Jawaka. It's relatively brief but it's sooo good
>>63224822
He's pretty hit or miss imo but when he's on it's reaaaally good. I'm listening to Inca Roads right now, never gets old.
>>63224822
I really like Zappa In New York and Roxy and Elsewhere. Michael Brecker is one of the best sax players of all time.
>>63224822
I don't think he made any really good albums with no attempts at comedy or wackiness on them, but there are some good ones. (the orchestral stuff like the London Symphony Orchestra and Boulez Conducts Zappa are not wacky, but I don't think they're very good...)
>>63224822
just listen to Hot Rats. it's purely instrumental music with no wacky bullshit, and it's great
>>63229517
>HOT MEAT
>HOT RATS
>HOT ZITS
>HOT CHEST
>HOT RITZ
>HOT ROOTS
>HOT SOOTS
>>63229604
>WOOP WOOP OOP!!!
>>63229604
forgot about that. still a great album though
>>63224822
honestly anyone who says he just makes le wacky goofball music has not listened to any of his albums
>>63229604
are you implying that part is bad tho
