Zappa is one of those artists that we will remember long after his untimely death. He broke a lot of hard ground, made us laugh along the way and offended all the right people. I was thinking of including Joe’s Garage, Civilization, Phaze III, The Yellow Shark, and the film Baby Snakes on here as well, but Jazz from Hell summarizes much of his more serious musical ideas very well. He was big into the Synclavier at this point.
