 zappa
Zappa, with and without The Mothers, went on to record some of the most brilliant, scatological, scathing, iconoclastic music of the century, and in a variety of forms, including doo-wop, psychedelic, jazz, free form and classical (his orchestral compositions have been conducted by Zubin Mehta and Pierre Boulez).
Zappa came to national attention in 1985 when he appeared before Congress to testify against censorship, specifically the record labeling proposed by the Parents' Music Resource Center, an organization led by, among others, Tipper Gore.
Zappa called the outfit "a group of bored housewives" who were "treating dandruff by decapitation." Zappa deflated Gore's assertion that certain types of music could promote deviant behavior.

 Zappa Drinks and Goes Home
It is really not an exaggeration to say Zappa was a composer of Beethovenian drive; his preoccupation with music was comparable to that of the late reclusive super-genius pianist, Glenn Gould.
One momentous Friday afternoon, Zappa stunned all concerned by announcing that he was going to quit working a few hours early and "take a nap so I'll have enough energy for Margaritas." This was sort of equivalent to Da Vinci announcing that he would be fitting in scientific experiments around, oh, Pachisi.
In time, Zappa's plain enjoyment of these events---a novel experience to him---reached such a level that, during his final year of life, he took to encouraging people to stop in---sometimes even phoning to extend invitations.

Onstage, Zappa is a live wire, the audience is appropriately rambunctious, and the band--an especially potent incarnation of the famous Mothers of Invention--is tight as could be.
Zappa, who died in 1993, always worked with consummate musicians, and Baby Snakes showcases the cream of the crop: Terry Bozzio (one of the greatest drummers ever to command a kit), bassist Patrick O'Hearn, keyboard wizard Tommy Mars, and even pop chameleon Adrian Belew.
The DVD packaging, with its deluxe miniature dossier on Zappa and the film, is fabulous, and the sound and picture seem about as good as they could be, under the influence--that is, the circumstances.
