In His Own Words

Arguably the sharpest tool in the rock musician box, Frank Zappa was never lost for words when presented with another's opinion and would counter any position he did not agree with, fluently, eloquently and with the style and wit normally reserved for the great orator or the finest raconteur. Frank could be funny, serious and just about anywhere in-between and could literally talk for hours without losing a single member of his audience. This DVD collects together over 90 minutes of video interviews and talking engagements with or undertaken by Zappa across his career, during which the great man is on form and on the money throughout. Talking on numerous subjects and displaying variously; charm, intelligence, humour and impatience - sometimes all within the same interview - this is Zappa away from the day job but at his fascinating, albeit at times fearsome, best.
