I always thought his music was a lot more interesting than his lyrics.

I watch something like this and think, okay, there's an aspect of his work that's really not much different than Phish. |

Whether or not his (or any) music is great is a purely subjective matter. Personally I think it sucks, but that's just me.

I kind of love Zappa's music, but sometimes it almost pisses me off, there this sort of arrogant vibe I get from some of it |

Could you only imagine if Mr. Zappa was alive today with the technology we have. I remember seeing a video where they said he would be on a plane writing with his manuscript paper and no instruments. Now picture that with a laptop, a score program, Pro Tools or Logic!
Truly a genius! IMHO
