>>212525130Zappa never made music to appeal to the masses or get rich by pandering to hook-driven taste. You have to understand his approach came not just from blues and r&b with which he grew up, or more rock sensibility which became current, but from an avant garde tradition stemming from guys like Varรจse. Truthfully it's not for everyone.
I'm sure he'd have done even uglier shit if he didnt have bills to pay.

It's not noodling. You have ears as shit as John Lennon, who once went on stage with Zappa and thought he joined into some kind of noisy "Jam Rag" instead of a carefully rehearsed piece, jam rag being what he tried to title it when he put it on one of hisbown albums without even crediting zappa.
Your case aside, Hot Rats achieved wide popular acclaim in it's day.
