What does /pol/ think of this man?

I wish this guy was still around.

>>135162251
Hands down bar none greatest musician of the 20th century. Dude was fucking light years beyond his time, the Kubrick of music except not a Jew.

>>135162251
go read some david mcgowan

A great musician.
A great man.
A great mind.

Easily one of his generation's greatest and most talented. Being somewhere between conservative and libertarian, he was the voice of reason, and a living proof that you don't have to be spineless center-left populist spouting whatever gains them easy PR points, to be a popular musician.

A damn shame he had to go so early.

>>135162251
He was murdered.

>>135162746
Have to agree with that.

Watch the vid /pol/.

>>135163509
I've often wondered/thought about that.

>>135162251
zappa was a genius who saw through the lies

>>135163614
It was the first thing that popped in mind after I learned of Zappa and his opinions. Musical genius in my opinion. Often dubbed the musician for musicians.

A true example of a strong will, brilliant mind and critical thought hindered by the powers in control.

>>135162251
Great musician. But he was also a zog shill.

An Arab who used edginess to mass produce and sell mediocre (((satirical))) music.

Zappa was one of the original/best musical shit posters of all time.

https://youtu.be/cepV5f2-MaU


One of my personal favorites
Give it a listen it's a short Diddy.

>>135164731
Arab? Mediocre? You are obviously oblivious.

I've been meaning to get into his albums forever. So I just looked up his discography and jesus christ... someone please give me some direction here?

>>135165544
What kind of music do you like

>>135165544
Apostrophe is a good start

>>135165544
Apostrophé got me started real good. Sheik Yerbouti was next, and it kinda just rolled on from there.

I got into avant garde shit through Mr. Bungle many years ago, knew the thread traced back to zappa but never put in the effort to follow through. I also like classic rock like zepplin and am a typical radiohead faggot

A classic, fer sure.

>>135165544

The "Strictly Commercial" compilation from shortly after his death is a pretty good starting point. As for "proper" albums, Absolutely Free, Joe's Garage, Only in it for the Money and Hot Rats- and *maybe* the Fillmore East Live album, would probably be the best introductory points.

>>135162251
He called it.
He actually did it.

>>135166012
>you are what you is
>has a kike nose or some other sub human shit nose
>music sucks but gets praise and awards

>kike
Listen to "I am the slime"

>>135166618
Italian, you ignorant dolt. Get back to your Justin Beiber.

>>135166967
American born, Italian descent.

In his autobio from '88 he predicts almost exactly how computers would change the way people get music. Also called Al Gore's presidential run.

he was (and still is) a king of degeneracy. His "music" is raping of instruments and ears.

He's pretty good.

>>135168710
Wrong, again, faggot.

>>135162251
Fucking Genius

Perhaps the greatest musician of the 20th century.

Red pilled as fuck.

>>135165544
apostrophe
overnight sensation
Joe's garage

accessible stuff

then hot rats and the grand wazoo for a taste of his instrumental composition

Zoot allures, One size fits all, some of his more accessible later stuff

>>135168845
His father was Arab and his son is Ahmed? Hmmmm..

>>135169335
Ahmet

and his 2 other kids are Dweezil and Moon unit

the guy was just weird.

Pretty sure he is Italian.

>>135162251
The excessive marimba & xylophone solos may grate after a while but it can't detract from his creative spirit.
"Tinseltown Rebellion" was my 1st Zappa release, and it remains my firm favourite.

>>135169548
Polish, and there is a statue dedicated to his memory in his home town.

Close.

Zappa was born in Baltimore, Maryland. His mother, Rosemarie (nėe Collimore) was of Italian (more specifically, her family was from Naples and Sicily) and French ancestry; his father, whose name was Anglicized to Francis Vincent Zappa, was an immigrant from Partinico, Sicily, with Greek and Arab ancestry.[nb 2] It is not clear whether he possessed other than Italian roots as all of his grandparents and great-grandparents were born in Italy (with Italian surnames).

One of the greatest gifts of our generation.
Here, have some rare Zappa.

His autobiography is hilarious and captures the spirit of 60s Commiefornia. Was wise to new manipulation long before most were. Pre-internet almost every adult was a TeeVee 3 broadcast zombie, remember. Perfect pitch, whether is music or life, is a curse of hearing and seeing endless unfixable mistakes. Britbongs are faggots who need to rally 'round a REAL monarch to unfuck their faggotry. THE KRAUT USURPERS END WITH BESS.

Frank Zappa was a pretty cool dude. It's hard not to like a guy that gives so few fucks he named his kids "Dweezil" and "Moon Unit"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKYGaEafv4g

Great composer and musician, crap songwriter.

Ram it up your cornhole

>>135162251
Unbelievable talent coupled with a truly free thinking mind.

Tightwad band leader, cheated on wife openly, absent father, let his home get over run by drug addled psychopaths while his children were toddlers.

Should have never married or had kids in my opinion

This man was woke as fuck and you don't know shit.

Listen to "Broken Hearts are for Assholes" and your IQ will increase.

"Don't fool yourself girl, it's winking at you."

"Did he who made your poop chute make thee?"

"Some scientists say that the major building block of the univers is hydrogen because its the most plentiful element, but my theory is that the universe is made out of stupidity because it is more plentiful than hydrogen. And since its more plentiful, then why shouldn't we talk about it?"
