To those who knew him he was the definition of eccentric.
He died today.
He was a prolific painter as well in his later years.
He died of complications due to MS. This disease is terrible. I've seen two buddies go because of this damn disease.
Being a hardcore Frank Zappa fan I knew him through Frank's music but never really listened to his stuff, way too out there for me.
I just saw Dweezil Zappa plays Zappa for the second time this Tuesday. One hell of a show. Frank would be proud of hearing his music performed with the quality his son manages to get from his band of excellent musicians.
Anyone else see the ZPZ tour? If not and you're a FZ fan, go see these shows. |
