Zappa is one of the handful of guitarists I can thoroughly enjoy listening to wank for 8mins or more.

In a world of a shitty wankers, Frank shows us how to wank right

Would his playing even constitute as wanking?
Improvisation is a major feature of jazz/fusion and when I think of guitar wankery, I automatically visualize prog metal and shred guitarists who are just playing for the sake of outplaying others. It's very cut and paste while this isn't at all, or to me at least.

Willie the pimp is the bees knees!

I sometimes resent that this album holds people back from exploring his other albums. Still a 5/5 though.

Album Rating: 4.5

yes i cant see why it would hold people back, i think more people would likely get burnt elsewhere in his discog than here
