My taste? Riccardo!
Never liked so much the other great Zappa.
BTW in italian language the meaning of word Zappa is: HOE (farming tool).

Great as usual, Andrea...
By the way, in Italian we say "ignorant as a hoe"... not relevant to the subject, but funny nonetheless. Back to music, I'm not an expert on either, but I know and like some of Frank's production - especially great instrumental tracks like "Peaches en Regalia".

| Riccardo doesn't sound all that unique (granted this is only based on listening to the 7-8 sound clips posted to his home page)...FZ was absolutely unique when he surfaced on the music scene... |

Yep.
BTW, the most important thing is that both Zappas have here their own place.

| Of course Frank is a legend, but Ricardo's Celestion and Chatka are very good prog! Sort of the Italian Mike Oldfield(but original not copycat, just a reference point) if you were wondering. Truly worth a listen and one of the best selling instrumental albums ever! |

I have heard Celestion by Riccardo Zappa, it's very chilled and some nice music. But for uniqueness and pure freakiness, nothing beats Frank! -------------
