      Classical music was his first love. He wrote like a classical composer. All on paper first, then hand it out to his band, then they played it. He self taught guitar because he said that’s what made money. The guy was a genius!

    Great arrangement of an original masterpiece by Maestro Zappa. Many thanks to the orchestra for helping to keep his music alive. You know music is good when people are still playing it live when it was composed over 50 years ago and then given an orchestral arrangement, and well after the Maestro passed on to Music Heaven. His compositions have even been played by school bands and orchestras. It will live on. I miss Frank. His music, talent, wit and social commentary... and of course his humor. This brought me to tears. I hope he knows how much we love him, miss him and that his music is still played and revered by all who like good music, and that new generations are being introduced to his wonderful music.

      I have a theory that Czech people couldn't speak english, so they listened mainly to the music, which got them hooked. (It has it's benefits, like for example listening to tracks like "Keep it greasy" with your parents). Exploring texts and their meaning was a great bonus after that, especially since Czech sense of humor is very simmilar to Zappa's.
