Frank Zappa circa 1976 on MSM

Frank's been my hero since the October 16, 1971 Stony Brook late show.

We're getting close to his prediction in my sig line.

I see OWS as our only hope and it appears to be influencing the national debate, looking at the Republicans vilifying Mitt the job cremator about Bain.

Sheer brilliance. A man truely w/ his finger on the pulse of our modern culture, he always pushed the envelope. Gotta hand to SNL for letting get on air, one can only wish they'd broadcast more of the jam. Nice touch by Frank to give Don Pardo, the iconic voice of US television, pretty much forever, the lions share of the lyrics.
