A Tune, or two … !

Bless her, a little while back, Debbi mention the amount of new and different music she’d been introduced to, as a result of blogging.

I think I know what she means!

Bless, I’ve just been chatting to Patrice — someone I know through Facebook — about all sorts of things.

As a result … ?

Well, as a result, Frank Zappa’s Valley Girl got a mention.


Patrice, bless her, was surprised!

By the fact it really was possibly the only Zappa tune I’d heard!

And managed to introduce me to this one he did on the US version of Saturday Night Live, a few years ago.


Now I don’t know if it was done in the same studio as this …


But both are great tunes!

Oh, just had a dig around on YouTube, by the way.

Exactly how diverse did Zappa get … ?

This is one of his …


As is the Musique Concreté sound-track for this cough-drop commercial … !


And I always thought Terry Pratchett was prolific … !

    Awesome Zappa videos! I wasn't familiar with the last two. The man was a genius with an amazing musical range. Someone definitely ahead of his time, too.

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?

I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.

Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.

Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.

Thank you.
