BBC1 show zappa did in 1980, brilliant stuff.. he plays a crazy array of music, as you can imagine (from varese/stravinsky [of course] to doo-wop [naturally] to sweet home alabama to crazy japanese electropop)
2 hours of goodness. plus, some guy's remastered it - only about 4 of the songs are from the original recording, the rest he's put in as good quality mp3s with zappa introducing them all.
his commentary is very very interesting - he plays some music by the GTOs (a dance troupe that he had on Bizarre Records in the late 60s) and also Wildman fisher - a homeless man who had very violent tendencies (he tried to kill his mother once - and zappa tells another very interesting story about this man, in his own comical way, on the show) whose music zappa also put out on bizarre records...
well worth the download :)
enjoy!

I don't know bout that zappa guy. I find it hard to find brilliance in singing about pee once per album. Specially in the way he does it.
But he was certainly prolific.

i don't think much of his songs either. but there's certainly true genius in hot rats, waka/jawaka, and the grand wazoo [dominantly instrumental albums]. give them a try.

there are some songs with very good lyrics, imo. but then, songs like dina moe hum don't have a lot of goodness in them, lyricwise...
