God we got 11" of snow here so its "Don't You Eat that Yellow Snow"

Seymouro
Frank Zappa's inimitable winter classic.

Classic any way you want to look at it. The man was legendary!

" I injured the fur trapper" (about 4:27, then at about 5:05 one of the most mind altered sequences of music ever to come out of a guy that never indulged..."I can't see...I can't see...").

What a musician. Thank God I saw him with Mark at Royal Oak Theatre in 1979, I believe. The "Tinseltown Rebellion" tour. Complete with hanging women's underwear complied from all the stops on the tour, and instructions from none other than the great FZ to the women about how to easily remove these articles and throw them up on the stage.

What a interesting character Zappa was. Very demented but a musical genius. From what I know he got by with a cult following because most of his songs couldn't be played on the radio.
