Frank Zappa Long Songs

I hope you have had a chance to catch Bobby Marquis' ongoing series on Frank Zappa. This week he just aired part 8 of a group of interviews he has done with Frank Zappa alumni. It is a wonderful series: well researched and presented. You can hear it every Wednesday from 3:30pm-4:30pm or you can check out the audio archive here http://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/88/info.html.

So to end this week of long songs here is a master of the 8 minute + musical excursion. Frank Vincent Zappa!

  1. Hi - just wanted to thank you for posting the link to the Tom Fowler, etc interviews in the CKCU archives. I knew those interviews were going to be on, and had even marked them on my calendar, but 3:30 is a tough time for me - I managed to miss every single show! I searched for the archives after the first show, and couldn't locate it - so again, thank you.
