Comments:
BBC documentary on
the life and work of Frank Zappa. There is a lot of cool footages
with bandmates (Ian Underwood, Georges Duke, Bruce Fowler,
Tom Fowler), some family members (Gail Zappa, Dwezill
Zappa, etc.) and other collaborators (such as Pierre
Boulez, the well known French orchestra conductor). This is
followed by Frank Bio after his passing on A&E.
