Frank Zappa talks - Drugs

I believe this was deleted from youtube as well, the original video was like an hour long. This was the only part I managed to save.

Since the original was deleted, I recommend downloading the video using KeepVid if you want to keep it.

Credit to reldditmot for being the original uploader.

@CheGumby Geniuses often come across as a-holes.

@xxtiaan ....and if you are a vagina hater,go listen to some Bronski Beat. Im a breeder and I love FZ,my comment was an aside...I am allowed to point out details and still like FZ, and gays, and women...Frank was very opinionated, nothing wrong with it.

Awful video, this guy won't shut THE FUCK UP.

Americans become raging assholes after smoking weed? How is that?

[Forgetfulknotts]

I think the funniest contradiction to Franks quotes in this segment is a picture I have seen of him alongside William S. Burroughs. My hero that had to be exposing his asshole to Zappa one way or another. Poor Zappa, having to smell so many assholes that he wouldn't dare touch.

what is this clip from? seems to be a piece of a big documentary, which i would love to see..

[xxtiaan]

@lilnetty2 erm how exactly am i stereotyping? actually Im an out and proud gay dude and live in a city of 2 million (Auckland, look it up on google maps) not huge, but big enough to be fairly cosmopolitan

" I was trolling a bit, to see if anyone would respond" So first you were trolling but now you are "not trolling for aggro" jesus make up yr mind....

[lilnetty2]

@xxtiaan. My "mysogynistic" comment was me looking for opinions, not trolling for aggro. FZ was a genius, and a pretty conservative guy...and generally misunderstood by many.Interesting guy.

You generalize and stereotype beyond what you seem to be able to tolerate in others.You are a bit too sensitive to be open minded when processing this chatter. My gay buds are generally pretty intelligent and socially savvy. Maybe you are from a small town closet.

[xxtiaan]

@lilnetty2 awesome, so you are trolling, I hope yr 17 gig makes you feel like you have a big penis,

you know you can have an actual conversation here without being a complete fucktard and stereotyping. Have a nice life.

(P.S the Dreaming is Kates best album incase you want to listen to her, and I saw the jesus lizard early 90's and i have no idea who wes montgomery is so its a useless point of reference)

@posthumanhero Pt 4 And if your argument is that Zappa [was] crazy without the drugs I will simply say that he was taking the other side. Trying too hard. In the end, while others made Dyonisian music he made Appolonean music with self-conscious flourishes of Dyonisian expression thrown in. I listened to an interview with him and he said, "I smoked ten of those marijuana cigarettes and they put me to sleep". This was enough to know that he's not my kind. It hurts to say that. Thinkings overrated

[posthumanhero]

PT 3 Forinstance, when Zappa discusses Jim Morrison he sounds like your father. And , indeed, in highschool a straightlaced friend had to send me a cartoon in the mail of the Mothers "Money" LP cover with cartoon bubbles and all mocking the fact that my take on The Zappa was that he was afraid to LET GO. I know Zappa heads will hate me for this, but it must be said. In retrospect, much of his music appears to be lost in hangups, while people he made fun of were touching something much more real.
