Frank Zappa was a musical genius. There's no one on the planet that could contradict this sentiment. He demonstrated this fact by excelling at all types of music from rock to pop to jazz to classical. Open your mind to the cynical, and humorous paths he explored. Music doesn't always have to be serious. He had no equal. It's a damn shame that the tar in cigarettes killed him, not the nicotine. If you consider yourself a music aficionado, try one of his many flavors. First heard The Mothers Of Invention in 1966 as a freshman in high school and attempted to purchase any and all releases from then on. I have lost track of how many LPs of his I have purchased. You don't have to agree with his politics or religious views, just listen to the music.
I took Frank Zappa’s advice
I’ve never actually heard this album but apparently Frank and I have the same taste. I listen to everything that way.
Zappa - Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch:
"This album has been engineered to sound correct on JBL 4311 speakers or an equivalent. Best results will be achieved if you set your pre-amp tone controls to the flat position with the loudness control in the off position. Before adding any treble or bass to the sound of the album, it would be advisable to check it out this way first. F.Z."
