Biography

Composer, guitarist, singer, and bandleader Frank Zappa was a singular musical figure during a performing and recording career that lasted from the 1960s to the '90s. His disparate influences included doo wop music and avant-garde classical music; although he led groups that could be called rock & roll bands for much of his career, he used them to create a hybrid style that bordered on jazz and… Read more in Amazon's Frank Zappa Store

3.0 out of 5 stars Get Stricly Commercial instead, August 14, 2008

This review is from: The Best of Frank Zappa (Audio CD)
This is Zappa, so it is all good. This is a compilation where the producers have basically taken the older (and better) 'best of' compilation 'Strictly Commercial' and deleted 1/3 of the tracks to make it a sweet 16 compilation.

This is all PG-13 Zappa, a good introduction, but there is no need for it since you can still find "Strictly Commercial".

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, April 6, 2009
This review is from: The Best of Frank Zappa (Audio CD)
The Whole is not always equal to the sum of its parts. Great compilation. A bit disjointed as each music piece belongs elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars best of FZ...awesome compilation of franks's best known songs, December 21, 2006
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Best of Frank Zappa (Audio CD)
i love this cd.been spinning it a lot lately..and it came cheap..bought it 10.99 at Best Buy. what a bargain considering this cd contains FZ's best stuff and best known stuff! Beware: this awesome collection will get the neophyte like myself started on buying all of FZ's cd's now that I'm hooked! This has everthing from Frank you could possibly want. The awesome guitar player that frank was and his amazing band the Mother's of Invention, Steve Vai and Captain Beefhart. The songs are hilarious: Dancin' Fool,Bobby Brown, Disco Boy, Don't eat that yellow Snow, Muffin Man, Valley Girl, and others. I also recommend Apostrohe and Overnite Sensation..his best known albums.
Rock on..Great Googly Moogly!
a FZ fan
