  • You're welcome, it was a unique time in FZ's development when he was very direct and honest about his feelings. I think we got him at a vulnerable moment.

  • Wow he Snaped on ole Jmmie Carl !

  • Wow.

    Such an overall view of the philosophy of a true musician, artist, playwrite, etc. Excellent!

  • Ah, i heard that he always had a bodyguard with him after the time he got attacked on stage. Thanks for the info anyway.

  • He was very formal with a commanding presence. A big, black bodyguard stood next to him who gave us 15 min and when the time was up he promptly showed us out. Frank was sitting through the interview and when I met him several years later he was standing. I was struck by how short he was. He was a towering genius, nevertheless.

  • Hey thanks for putting these up. Best interview on youtube by far cus of the decent questions :D

    What was Zappa like when you met him anyway?

  • wow, he sure did lay a verbal smackdown on jimmy carl black's action back in the day. i used to email some with JCB, he was cool. but frank was/is GAWD.
