Appreciating frank zappa [View all]

I first heard it at the October 16, 1971 zappa/mother's Stony Brook late show. I grew up in the three village area of long Island and I lived close enough to ride my bicycle to the show. Something about zappa and his music and intelligence and values really resonated with me. Through the 70's and 80's I bought each album as it was released and went to concerts when they were within driving distance.

Went to about eight shows on the 1988 tour, most notably the last one at Nassau coliseum.

Like his wife said, when you get into Frank,, you're in it for life
