Comment:


Brother Strange Loop and Brother Doowad were inspired to put this mix together after seeing The Glitter and Doom Tour stop here in St. Louis last summer. This was an educational exercise for both of us really, to examine the Zappa-Beefheart library and look at the artists who have influenced both of them as well as the artists whom they themselves have influenced. We were determined to post today since tomorrow is the 15th anniversary of Papa Frank's death.

Just as long as you don't call him "Frank." That's reserved for Sinatra:) Serious good work here, though.

One of my college classmates used to say her dream was to sleep with Zappa. Never happened, but we still remind her now that she is a grandmother. He was a good-looking man, though.
