Wonna know which musicgroup, artist or what ever is best
through the years.
Right now listen to Beatles, wonderful music with John
Lennon in front.

But, of course Frank Zappa is the best!!

In your opinion, whats best?

The Beatles, no contest. In a trillion years, it'll still be
the Beatles. Lennon is truly a god among men... well he WAS.

The Beatles. How is that even open anymore? I mean.. in
terms of overall influence and all everyone's been copying
them since.

zappafan-

Zappa is a huge influence on me. Do you have "The Mother's
of Prevention" album? It's his early syncalvier stuff done
like in 1984 that sounds creeply like idm.......

I have just about everything.....My favorites are anything
by the mid-70's band (all his bands were good, I just like
there feel - the Inca Roads band), the orchestral stuff, and
Civilzation Phaze III......

I just downloaded ''We're Only in it for the Money'' and
''Freak Out'' from Soulseek. I'm not familiar with Zappa...
can't wait to hear these albums.

Oh yeah, and ''Uncle Meat''. The only album I had from him
before today was ''Strictly Commercial'', kind of his
greatest hits or something... interesting stuff.

Mozart, just listen to his first symphony and then realise
he made it when he was only 8 years old. The guy was
abnormally talented, maybe the greatest musical talent ever.
He mastered a very wide range in the musical spectrum and
expanded on musical rules which became a standard later. I
love his music.

Opecks:
You should download (if possible) anything from the 'Roxy
and Elsewhere' album, "You Can't Do That On Stage Vol. 2 -
the Helsinki concert", and the "Mother's of Prevention
Album".

The last mentioned album has a track at the end where he
samples a ton from the 'Porn Rock' hearings in front of the
U.S. congressional housewives. He's got Tipper Gore saying
"Fire and Chains and Thrills of Gradification in some
Twisted Mind".......

All of his albums are different....stuff from the mid-70's
to the mid 80's is the best, in my opinion.....

He's got a huge discography... I took a look at
Allmusic.com, I'll have to get everything there.

I haven't really listened yet, but I will later... can't
wait, I've heard good things about the guy. Lots of brand
new Zappa for my virgin ears.

Something like 65 albums when he was alive...like 75
now....

If you really want a treat...by "Civilzation Phaze III".
It's almost all synclavier, and is the hardest (most dense)
album I've ever heard. It's like Confield, with orchestral
instraments, and they let Vsnares in on some of the tracks.

Because of Zappa, nothing ever sound 'weird' to me. I'm
completely desensitized to anything now. That album to me 5
years to get used to (I'm not kidding)......

I agree smeagle. He was in that period. Roxy and Elsewhere
is a great dubbel.

And when I just check back....
...another great band was MC5.
Anyone familiar too that?
