   Frank's music?  Pretty tired of it, right?  "Bobby Brown"?  Yeah, it ain't   
   amusing anymore the 10,000th time you've heard it.  "Dyanamo Humm"?  Great   
   song if you're 13 & in    
   Junior High. "Jesus Thinks You're A Jerk"?  Yeah, another great one!  Gee, FZ   
   ain't so hot anymore now that you've grown old & matured in your musical   
   tastes.  And don't even try bringing up "Buffalo Voice"!  Do you know anyone   
   under 30 who even know who    
   he is?  And not because of "Yellow Snow".

   "Lather" of "200 Motels"   
    any time soon......

   Sometimes every day and I do have a large collection of music spanning my 60   
   years on Earth. Zappa is always in the Top 5 would be my best estimate and   
   probably 4 times a week I will enjoy one song or several lps.
