Frank Vincent Zappa (Baltimore, 21 de diciembre de 1940 - Los Ángeles, 4 de diciembre de 1993) fue un cantante, guitarrista, compositor y artista satírico estadounidense. De ascendencia siciliana, griega, árabe, francesa, irlandesa y alemana, fue el mayor de cuatro hijos. A causa del asma que Frank sufría, su familia se mudó en enero de 1951 a Monterey, California, unos 150 kilómetros al sur de San Francisco. Antes de volver a California (San Diego) a principios de los años 50, vivieron un tiempo en Pomona y en El Cajón.

=========================================================================== Song : Yo Cats (3:34) Album: FZ Meets the Mothers of Prevention (#44, 11/21/85)
4/4, Key of F (usually)
This is a cool piece about the music biz and FZ's impression of session players. This is a fun song to play so if you've never heard it dig up a copy of FZMMP, well worth it with some excellent, short Synclavier comps. Some of the chord in this one are questionable. Especially the C/F/Ami/Dmi. I played with this one a lot before I settled on those chords. Some other options include G/F/C/Dmi and C/Bb/Ami/G. The B/F#/C#/G... section is also very weird. These chords work with the melody but harmonically aren't the greatest in the song (unless you like that sorta thing :0) If you find alternates let me know. This song has subjective chords because the progressions are implied by the melody only. There are no clear chord parts being played.
