Twenty Small Cigars - Frank Zappa

[jcrowellz2000]

First heard this on Son of Cheap Thrills back in high school. Still cool

The stuff that Frank in this style always amazed me because it is quite different from a lot of the stuff he did.

It is very well written.

Of course it is played with perfection.

Why does this sound like I'm listening to the original vinyl on high end equipment through $1000 Grado headphones?

@jtpinnyc Because, that's what you can expect from TheZappaDiscography. ;) Thanks for the compliment!

This piece of song is a very interesting hybrid between classic, blues, and jazz. Well, Zappa got a philosophy to build music with a interesting experimental criteria.

Maybe too many timbres in this one. But ok, there are certainly other magnificent music that came out of his tophat as well. =)

yummy!

Frank's music never fails to make me wonder upon his genius. He was so different and harmonically unique from what was happening all the time. His music should be placed in a conservatory for future generations to study. Frank, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Bill Evans and others are but a few of our contemporaries that come to mind that have reached that level of musical genius. ...And that's the truth. He had a great career that made people laugh and be in amazement at the same time.

[zappascum]

Delicious!! One of my first encounters with this genius.

for some strange reason this always sounded like a drunk penguin

@perkyporkpie - "For some strange reason" is practically a synonym for "because it's Frank Zappa".
