For Those Not Watching The FA Cup Final



Pure Zappa Wonderfullness. I was so sad when he died. In between sprints to the lavatoire I am yawning my way through the cup final and multi-tasking in a blog-style way. Hope you all enjoy it.

Bloody Chelsea won in extra time ... bah.

There's some great footage of Zappa being interviewed along with some Moral Majority idiot on American television from the 1980's. He just runs rings around the bloke while taking the mickey. A pity there aren't more people in the public eye nowadays who're subversive in that way. Instead we're stuck with the likes of Bono.

Love the early Mothers albums and Frank's Best Of compilation is one of the best.

This is the footage Betty mentioned.

The Zappa clip was better to watch than the first half of the FA Cup Final. There's also a good rendition of this song on "Does Humour Belong In Music" - a great live concert video.
Good on you for posting this x

Betty - bah! I know. I got slagged off for being quite pleased (but didn't really care - that they won I mean). Thanks for the Zappa tip - yes I remember that too - Zappa was unique.

Geoff - thanks - see next post

Ister - ANYTHING was better to watch than almost the entire match of the FA Cup Final. Did Giggs push it over the line - I'm not so sure actually.....thanks for Zappa ting - will check out
