I really can't
Either you love him or you hate him, you just kind of have to accept it
Listen to We're Only in It for the Money, Hot Rats, One Size Fits All and The Yellow Shark
If you don't like any Zappa by the time you've finished, you probably never will

>>73693398
i may be biased as it was the album that redpilled me on zappa but i do think its a great place to start to see what he's all about. its fantastic

I'm not even near half way there.

>>73693452
just listen to the first half. that's the beauty of it, pt 1 is a perfect zappa experience. the second half should be heard but you can skip it if you're new to fz. you should listen to watermelon in easter hay and a little green roseta on part 3 though. watermelon in easter hay is probably his best song

>>73693992
It's not just the cover, and it's not just The Beatles.
Listen to the song Oh No.

>>73693895
Zappa was actually not a fan of the Jews, or religious people in general.
There's a bit on Playground Psychotics where they're discussing (I think) Mark possibly wearing a yarmulke on stage, and Zappa tactfully refuses to allow it.

Frank Zappa doesn't make music, he makes parodies of music. He's a critic of art more than he's a maker of it.

>>73694691
I don't get how you can say his entirely instrumental prog jazz fusion albums are a parody of music.

>>73694691
I mean, he did write Pound For A Brown.
The thing about Zappa is that he's a master of the humorous line cliche, even when referencing his own composition, and the vaudeville of his band is an artform in and of itself.
Sort of like Cirque du Soleil, but rancid.

I loved Hot Rats. Where do I go from there? Seems like a real chore to sort through Zappa's catalogue

>>73694954
I'd recommend either Waka Jawaka, The Grand Wazoo, or the instrumental version of Sleep Dirt.

>>73694954
Waka/Jawaka, The Grand Wazoo, and Sleep Dirt for more jazz fusion stuff
If you want to branch out, maybe try Burnt Weeny Sandwich (like a proggier Hot Rats) or Chunga's Revenge (good mix of instrumentals and humorous rock songs)
