Frank Zappa: The Freak Out

Even if you know a lot about the composer/musician already, there’s still a lot to learn watching this fascinating documentary about the late, great Frank Zappa. There are a lot of fellow musicians and rock critics to tell you how big an influence he was on music, and there are lots or performance clips to show you how good he was at playing it. What’s missing is any actual interview footage with the man himself, and that keeps a good documentary from being great.
