and Beefheart's good friend, Frank

The sheik of hollywood

It was not only Frank Zappa's absurd sense of humor that made him a revered rock legend. He was also one of rock's very best composers, drawing from a deep understanding of classical music, as well as 50's rock and 70's pop. He was a flamboyant stage performer and a seriously good guitarist; and always played with great musicians.

Check out 46 tracks by various artists, including Frank himself, celebrating Zappa magic at The Chrome Dinette Website. "Inca Roads" is special.
