   quite right. I for one have long thought Gail was doing it pretty much right.   
      
   I just got a couple of releases, Dance me This and Feeding Monkies, what I   
   consider the end period, some material released in CPIII and EIHN and of that   
   era, so, familiar but still new- not the leap of buying NEW Zappa in the days   
   when my reaction to a    
   new album would often contain a little... confusion, disappointment, I am not   
   sure to this day- but it sometimes took me a while to 'get' new stuff as his   
   bands were evolving and his concerns shifting. I heard Freak Out at the age of   
   12 i 1969 and have    
   been a fan ever since, I think one of the more reveling things I have ever   
   read about Frank was in that new interview:   
      
   "Most musicians spend a lot of time living in the present, because they're   
   onstage and that's being very present, but they don't stay there," Gail says.   
   "They go on holiday when they get off. Frank never did. He was always in the   
   present. If he turned    
   towards you, you knew you were in the moment with him."
