Frank Vincent Zappa was of Italian origin, his grandfather having arrived in America from Partinico, Sicily. Frank Zappa grew to be one of the most accomplished composers of the rock idiom, his music combining an understanding and appreciation for such contemporary classical figures as Stravinsky, Stockhausen and Varese. These influences, coupled with an affection for late ’50s doo-wop, rock & roll, and skillful guitar-heavy rock, dominated pop in the 1970s. However, Zappa was also a keen satirist, whose reserves of scorn and parody seemed bottomless, and whose wicked sense of humor and absurdity continued to delight his numerous fans — even when his lyrics crossed the broadest bounds of taste.
