Inca Roads (Zappa) has got to be one of the best songs ever. Pointless thread i know but someone must agree with this...

Most definitely!!

IMO, that has to be in the top 10 greatest Zappa songs and is probably, as you say, one of the all-time greatest songs ever ever!

what a guitar solo :eek: . RIP Frank, we miss you dearly.

Imagine what music would be like nowadays if frank was still alive and also try to imagine what sort of music he would be playing.

Hot Rats is mostly instrumental but is my favourite Zappa album.

Hello, Time for my first post. Didn't expect to find any Zappa fans so quicky. How much do you like Zappa? I'm a keen Zappa collector with over a 100 cds and dvds. Inca Roads is awesome but Watermelon does it for me everytime.
If you're a true Zappa fan you'll know the answer to this question. What have all the Title tracks in the "Shut Up 'n Play yer Guitar" series got in common?

I'm a MASSIVE zappa fan!
at last count(about 3 weeks ago) i had 60 albums, 5 dvds, posters, tab books, tapes, bootlegs, magazine articles etc.

However, i'm afraid that i don't know the answer to that question!!

Hello mr Trout. As you know Shut up and play my guitar is 3 albums of Guitar Solos. The Three title Tracks "Shut Up and Play My Guitar, Shut Up and Play My Guitar Some More And Son Of Shut Up And Play My Guitar" are all solo's taken from "Inca Roads", Nice bit of "conceptual continuity" for ya.

How many boots you got? I've over 25. Where you buy your boots?

Ah the great Frank Zappa!I think the best way to approach zappa is to think that theres something for everyone,just to find it. Its very hard to like everything that he has done as there is so many different styles and albums, but theres so much good stuff out there, i buy an album every now and again because it takes awhile to get into some of them.I love the madness and the cleverness and the innuendo all rolled up together!!
