Oct 26, 2008 - 911 Shaman...I'm happy to see there's someone who says something different from the common opinion..Unfortunately too many people think of Zappa as the most genial figure in music, even if he did very few memorable melodies in his boring and infinite discography. Beatles could be a little bit overrated..but they composed many of the most beautiful songs in music....and they were the first great band to do that..

Oct 26, 2008 - Thank you. But I find ironic Zappa fans discount the sheer potency of the Beatles creative output, is either socially motivated (to fit in with over-thinking uber-zealot college students), or politically motivated. Zappa was a Liberal Socialist. When musicians run with the rhinos I flinch. All I hear is Zappa recreating the Beatles. He's no Miles Davis. But I never understood or "got" Zappa. That's why I think he appeals to a certain intelligentsia that appreciates tone deaf music.

Oct 28, 2008 - Zappa was a brilliant composer and the reson you dont get him is because you dont LISTEN to his songs they had no poin it was comedy but he made them in such a way that its sounded good all the music was composed by himj and if you ever listen to him talk hes a brilliant man

911Shaman Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - I'm sorry. I was joking really. But I took the joke too far. Said I was glad Zappa died when he did, insulted the Norwegians... I was really, really bad.

Oct 28, 2008 - i have no idea how someone who thinks they know anything about music thinks zappa's music must only appeal to the tone deaf.

911Shaman Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - Same thing goes for Doors fans.

doors1122 Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - right

Oct 28, 2008 - The Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon. Are you ready? You can be! For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Behold the Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon! Call upon the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be ready!

Nov 1, 2008 - lots of difference in composing a song like this....and copying badly years later... i like Z but this is just a basic good cover, not good creativity....

ChasBeauregarde Says:

Nov 1, 2008 - I agree with you about blurring the lines of politik w/ musical creativity but too say Zappa appealed to tone deaf music aficionados is ridiculous. Maybe you don't understand his appreciation of the dissonance he used in some compositions which was rooted in 20th century composers like Varese or Stravinsky, which are a matter of taste, but it's not fair to make generalizations based on one element of his composition style.

911Shaman Says:

Nov 1, 2008 - It was a joke I took too far.

iden91 Says:

Nov 10, 2008 - 911Shaman" go and fuck yourself. You know nothing about Norway. I would rather die, then live in such a fucked up country as America . We take care of poor people, and when they need care, we give them what we have. America do not care! You have to be rich . Just watch Sicko. Then you will come to your senses.

Nov 12, 2008 - Zappa was a genius & an amazingly unique guitarist...I'm sure any music lover could find a song or 2 of Frank's they would enjoy out of his 50+ LPs!
