Frank Zappa was a visionary musician who created music in any category you could possibly imagine. His music is a blend of hectic and sometimes confusing rhythms, such as St. Alphonzo's Pancake Breakfast, to more serene pieces like Peaches en Regalia. His music was consistently amazing and beautiful, despite his eclectic nature. Of course he also made doo-wop, blues, jazz, disco, psychedelic rock, etc...

He led the band [i]The Mothers[/i], which had a constantly changing member base, but was consistently good. The first album he made with them was [i]Freak Out![/i]

I absolutely love Frank Zappa, and to anyone who doesn't know him, I hope you love him as well!

He's a fucking great guitar player as well as just an all around visionary.

His Texas Motel Medley is genius.
