Anyone have a truly favorite Frank Zappa tune?
I personally find myself always going back to Peaches en Regalia when ever I think of putting him on!

There was another thread on this about a week ago, wasn't there?
Oh well. My answer's still the same. It all comes back to "Inca Roads".

So many great tracks it's difficult to choose, but I like every version I've ever heard of The Torture Never Stops, my favourite being the one off YCDTOSA 1.
