Frank Vincent Zappa (born December 21, 1940 in Baltimore, Maryland, United States – December 4, 1993 in Los Angeles, California, United States) was an American composer, guitarist, singer, bandleader and producer. He was one of the most prolific musicians of his time, releasing over fifty albums of original material spanning over a thirty-five year career.
Zappa's earliest influences were 1950s pop and rock (such as doo-wop and rhythm and blues), and 20th-century classical composers including Igor Stravinsky and Edgard Varèse.

Artist: Frank Zappa (and the Mothers of Invention) Song: Camarillo Brillo
EBAF#mG#mC#m She had that Camarillo Brillo flamin' out along her head. EBAF#mG#mC#m I mean her Mendcino Bino by where some bugs had made it red EBAF#mG#mC#m She ruled the toads of the short forest and every newt in Idaho EBAF#mG#mC#m And every cricket who had chorused by the bush in Buffalo EBAF#mG#mC#m She said she was a magic mama and she could throw a mean Tarot EBAF#mG#mC#m And carried on without a comma that she was someone I should know
DAGD She had a snake for a pet and an amulet DAGD And she was breeding a dwarf, but she wasn't done yet EBF#mC#m She had gray-green skin, a doll with a pin BA I told her she was alright, but I couldn't come in
And so she wandered through the doorway just like a shadow from a tomb She said her stereo was four-way and I'd just love it in her room Well, I was born to have adventure, so I just followed up the steps Right past her fuming incense stencher to where she hung her castinettes She stripped away her rancid poncho and laid out naked by the door We did it 'til we were unconcho and it was useless anymore
