Frank Zappa

on BBC Two England

Another chance to see this Late Show special in which Frank Zappa gave his first TV interview since becoming seriously ill with cancer in 1990. He talks about his family background, early musical influences, the 60s counter-culture and the legendary
Mothers of Invention. The film examines Zappa's impact on American politics, culture and society, as well as his recent involvement with the leaders of Czechoslovakia's velvet revolution. With contributions from members of the original Mothers, family and friends, it showcases rare material from
Zappa's own private vaults.
