I was first introduced to Frank Zappa's music in 1971 .. The white album with the pencil on the front . This Album was a live album at the Filmore East with Flo and Eddie from the turtles . I myself had been playing drums seriously for about 5 yrs. and was in a band . Self taught,, I had just learned that there was something other than 4/4 time , the common time your heart beats to.. 7/8 ? 5/8? what is that ,., One of my favirote albums is Lumpy Gravy wich is the total swing of the Zappa pendulum . Everyone playing in different times and keys . Not for everyone I know . I thank Frank Zappa for keeping my sanity though the Disco era.. I enjoyed Zappa everytime he came to Boston .. The Orpeum or the Music Hall were jammed packed with Berkley students so I knew I wasn't insane .... Thanks Dweezill for keeping the music alive .. I think the attraction for me is the music is so friggin hard to play .. Steve Vai appears in this percussion melay ..
