liked all the content in the audio book worth checking out by anyone interested in the fascinating mind of Frank Zappa.

The comprehensive and highly intelligent content.

Read by Frank's son, an actor, the book sometimes gets a bit 'overacted', but remains true to his words. Frank was funny, insightful and shares some very deep thoughts alongside fun stories, opinionated rants and honest, personal exploration.

Energetic ramblings of a hard-working genius.
