Zappa.com

Have some suggestions? I want to expand number of music I'm listening to and Franka Zappa inspired me A LOT. Do you know someone like him, guitarists that are concentrated on music, more like composers not players? I play on the quality casino and spend money to discs, I found this casino on the www.qualitycasinos.cc I also love classical music Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Liszt etc. I'm actually still learning a lot and I want to find a lot of inspiration.

There are probably a few composers that don't like Frank Zappa . . . just sayin' . . .

More Revueltas! He's pretty great....
