Did he? I mean crowd-famous songs like Bobby Brown and other stupid songs. Did Zappa and his other players like those songs?

If it wasn't for the stupid songs, "Civilization Phaze III" and all his other important stuff would never have been more than dots on a page (or in his head).

frank liked his own stuff; what pissed him off was that fans liked bobby brown & only bobby brown, or that way more fans preferred dinah-mo than freakout! or grand wazoo<br><br>never would have guessed jumbo go away was complex, certainly not on a par with black page, moggio or even marqueson's chicken & inca roads  :-X
