Frank Zappa is a great dude, great ideas, great persona, but face it: His music is mostly unlistenable.

Fact is he put out a hundred albums and about ten songs total are memorable. Lots of self indulgent crap otherwise.

He's one of those musicians I always thought I should like on general principles, but somehow ive never quite been able to bring myself to actually enjoy.

What is there to like about his personality? His whole schtick was making fun of music put out by other people and considered "good" by the mainstream. Meanwhile he never put out anything himself that is worth listening to.

Zappa has massive Aspie appeal. Much like Monty Python.

I remember playing jazz ensemble versions of some of his tunes. They were pretty OK.

I feel the same about zappa, I did hear an instrumental song the other day on the college radio station it was very intricate and pretty awesome. I was surprised to hear it was zappa after it was done. I think when he decides to sing is when things go off the deep end.
