When it came to Zappa, he was no stranger to making bold choices in his music style. He was a noted fan of genres like rock, classic, or jazz and wasn’t scared of experimenting with these sounds in his music. Speaking of dynamism, he could use distortion (“Willie the Pimp”) or go completely epic while still keeping things rather simple (“Inca Roads”). The mark of a true guitar hero, and a treat to see live.
