Frank "Vincent" Zappa (also known as the Grand Wazoo) (1940-1993) was an American musician, inventor, mudshark enthusiast, guitarist, composer, and part-time dental floss salesman. He is one of the first, if not the first, human to be born as an influential musician. He played guitar through his own special technique, which was based on a complex strangling of the guitar neck. This technique, through intense practice, could result in incredibly intricate and awe-inspiring guitar solos. He is also thought to be an omnipresent force in all melodies. In fact he is said to be the son of God, despite denial from Eric Clapton. More importantly, Zappa rose to fame making music too clever for you to understand on the same level as your friend who doesn't even laugh at the cock-jokes it contains.

Nei suoi testi Frank è solito parlare di cose come la masturbazione, la cacca e la politica e naturalmente fecero molto scandalo negli USA.
