In recent stories, Howard Kaylan claimed that he did puff with him and Mark Volman. It's reported that he liked to drink while dating. There's footage with him on acid with Pink Floyd. He liked to down play drugs and fired musicians if they played too high. Music is top notch and Frank was a badass no doubt. He just liked to downplay drugs.

A band can't get much tighter than Frank and the Mothers. You had to be at the top of your game to sit in Frank's bands.

That's not exactly true. He had an eye for seeing potential. He helped a lot of them see that potential, and even convinced a few of them to achieve that potential without him. He was like Miles Davis in the sense that he had an eye and ear for talent. Most of his underlings didn't reach the top of their game until after parting ways. Case in point, all those great little feat records with George Lowell, and those fantastic records Adrian did with King Crimson (to name a couple.)

MTU Michigan Tech U... The 'Huskies' ... St Alphonso's was a Church that had a pancake breakfast during the show time across the bridge in Hancock. Supposedly thats where it all started.

Frank zappa was extremely Anti Drug and anti pot, even firing a guitarist for smoking pot before a show. Yet they created some of the best, trippiest music to listen too while tripping. 😀

The 70's was the only decade progressive enough to embrace the genius that was Mr Frank Zappa. Listened on vinyl in the 70's and now on KZbin in 2021. Crazy how things have changed🤯 LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL..... LONG LIVE OLD ROCKERS 🎸 R.I.P. Frank

[@black70bird]

This is the first music I listened to when I was stationed in AK out of basic training. A bull moose named Bullwinkle was looking in the barracks window also!

My favorite holiday memory, baking snowball cookies with my daughter when she asks, "Can we add yellow food coloring?" When asked why, she broke into the chorus, "Watch out where the huskies, and don't you eat that yellow snow!" .. That's my girl! 😁👍

I once got drunk with this man, 1974 Ocean View Va. he walked in the club where me and three other sailors in uniform were getting drunk, him and 4 guys with him sat down with us, next thing I remember the shore patrol were taking us back to our ship the USS Columbus CG 12 .

[@laurafey9491]

I have been with my husband for over 30yrs( he introduced me to Zappa) 4 kids and 3 grandkidsi I appreciate Zappa and realize that he was a music genius.

The nostalgia of singing this as a kid while playing in the snow

[@joegib]

1974, just 14 years old and don't remember right how this album came to my hands and soon after the Overnight Sensation would go the same way, life and my perception of many things changed on a subtle way, his music and his persona walked with me until now...... Proud and grateful to be part of that generation growing up with such a talent people

So funny. Who would have thought of a title like "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow Suite." Hysterical!

Thanks for posting this! I like how ypou included the "interval" and laugh at the end. Most people would cut it out.
