  • i respect the mans mind and his humour,but i cant understand the "musical genius" bit. i know hes a very good guitarist though.more a beefheart man myself.

  • @dreadedwheat26 If you venture more and take in his whole repoitoir, from composer, original song writer, film maker, director/producer, band leader, conductor, innovative and unique electric guitarist, drummer, actor, record producer, record label owner, TV presenter, and businessman among other things, and general all round entrepeneur, then you get to see that the label genius is justified, he puts all others in the shade, Beefheart was also a genius!

    Try transcribing some of his music...

  • @dreadedwheat26 Zappa said his guitar was his wand...

  • In the thumbnail Zappa looks like a total pimp!

  • @dreadedwheat26 Take a musical theory class, and Zappa will blow your mind.

  • Der Mann ist viel zu früh gestorben .Einer großten Musiker.

    Nobi

  • @dreadedwheat26 Well, most true musicians do understand Mr. Zappa possessed extraordinary skill in music, as a composer. Much more than simply a guitarist, Zappa's genius was in his understanding of music, and his truly unique vision. Your average Joe on the street won't get that (no offense intended, I like Beefheart too).

  • twizzed around love him rip fz

  • Oh my god, Just look at the way that cute little skinny Terry Ted Bozio rocks that clip off of baby snakes!

  • Zappa wrote all of the music for the mothers and Zappa Captain Beefheart (Van Vliet) was an amazing musician but he was nothing compared to Zappa's musical genius. Zappa is truly on a whole 'nother level of musical density and some people just can't comprehend that.

  • @BMayhew60 That's true, but I enjoy The magic band's more "natural" approach. Both great artists though.
