Dweezil is lucky in that he got the cool name out of Zappa's (3?) kids.

Peaches En Regalia is my favorite tune. I liked his other stuff a lot more when I did drugs.

Emergency confection port.

i am sensing a pattern here that anything with words is toilet humor and anything without words is either bitchin' guitar solos or 18/12 mallet solos in F-sharp minor

Montana is my favorite Zappa song. Tina Turner and the Ikettes did vocals on it (and a few other songs on Apostrophe/Over-Nite Sensation), and I'd say it has the best vocal part out of any Zappa song. The story goes that Ike Turner heard the crazy vocal lines on Montana and said "What the hell is this poo poo?", never let them work with Zappa again, and had their name taken off the credits to the album.

This is another one of my favorite Zappa tunes, Lucille Has Messed My Mind Up, actually written by Jeff Simmons, one of the bassists for the Mothers:

This is actually a cover from Jeff Simmons' solo album. Zappa played guitar on that track, and it has a great blues feel. I think I like the reggae feel of the Joe's Garage version better, but they're both great:

Jack Bruce's involvement with Apostrophe:

Right. So Frank, whom I met earlier, appeared one day in the studio and asked me: "Can you take your cello and go to my session?" So I turned up in a NY studio with my cello, I'm listening to his music, pretty awful, and just don't know what to do with myself, and Frank says to me: "Listen, I would like you to play a sound, like this... whaaaaaang!!!" So I did what he asked me to do. Whaaaaaang!!! That was all. That was my input to Frank Zappa's most popular record! (laughs)

Frank Zappa posted:

Well, that was just a jam thing that happened because he was a friend of (drummer) Jim Gordon. I found it very difficult to play with him; he's too busy. He doesn't really want to play the bass in terms of root functions; I think he has other things on his mind. But that's the way jam sessions go.

Which account do you think is true? I'm leaning towards the less douchey one. (ripped straight from Wikipedia)
