One of the other things that the good Dr. Thompson memorably said, was "Freedom is being able to walk out on your front porch and loose off a whole cylinder from your .44 Magnum."

He did have a way with words.

more from HST:

is due to be brutally stomped in the future."

Had the pleasure of experiencing a similar performance in a quality venue in the late 70s. Zappa was not only an amazing composer, but also, an overlooked guitar virtuoso, whose technical skills were masked by the complexity of his compositions (witness the elaborate ensemble in the video). Weird? You bet. Superb? For sure!

Caught Zappa in concert in 78 at the Saint Pete Bay Front Center. Awesome show.
