Piss Police😭

Frank was a very enlightened man with a quick witt Loved his straight talking 🎉

Love the story about the window wipers and tissues 🚽🧻🧻🧻🧻🧻🧻

frank on fire. His line about giving lsd to yuppies was one for the ages...

The Russians were wining and dining Frank. Perhaps he’d be an Oliver Stone type or a Steven Seagal type if he were alive today.

Way to go, Frank.

Frank, we've solved the toilet paper issue.

A lot of calls from Florida I noticed.

He does not look well here . Wondering if his health issues had already started . Shame

He was so right about military manufacturers in USSR being very good. I have some first hand experiences to confirm they were more than really good, many westerners did make good deals there. Lack of top end equipment was a bit troublesome although they would order things from the West or other communist or socialist states if needed. Any state that could make nuclear power plants back then was technically at a very high level. This doesn't mean much today, good example is US lagging behind China and maybe Russia if US chooses to put nose into their internal affairs too deep again...

He already looks dead in this interview

Amazing how Zappa had such an intelligence for all, even business!! goddam i want to be like him!

9:05 So far, after watching many dozens of zappa's interviews this seems like the only thing frank predicted inccorectly

give it 3 to 4 years and will be tradable he said only took 2 lol.. this guy is something

Kramer...wish I never gave away my 424-CM Kramer guitar. Would have been great for 80's Zappa stuff...good interview

I don’t get it what was frank trying to sell in Russia

‘George’s Piss Police’! Lol...but also chillingly prescient now we’re faced with being compulsorily vaccinated and denied basic freedoms if we refuse 😔

Can you imagine if Frank Zappa was president?

FUN FACT: This interview was recorded on nov. 7 1989. Just 2 days before the fall of Berlin wall.

Pushing the Guitar album was a nice bit of savvy marketing.

zappa for president

Good phone calls and great interview.

By far one of the best Zappa interviews I’ve seen, notwithstanding that they’re not talking about music per se.

He looked so old here. Almost as old as I imagine he'd look like today, if he was still here.

Zappa was a great forward thinking of the box man, and that reflected in his music, which I'm glad is left to enjoy.

No slight against Frank, but Id love to know if at this time he had any meetings with a young orange guy who had a few barrels full of his daddy's money that he wanted to go throw around in eastern Europe.

LSD..if it was everything people like Kesey and Leary claimed it was, we'd be living in the Land of Oz, and not a nation of Rapturists, gun nuts, and whackjob conspiracy theorists.

this is incredible

So basically, as we move forward in time, every single fucking Zappa post on TH-cam will become INFECTED with political posts, which have NOTHING to do with when Zappa was being interviewed. The net effect? Having to sift through MORE NOISE, to find the signal. Congratulations. No it's not a joke. You're not funny. But you are a joke. You're attempts to upstage Zappa has been rendered a joke. But but but, you're denying me my right to free speech, Jon!!!! No I'm not. You can continue to show everyone how awesome you are with your continued skull leakage, which I'm sure you will.... :D

He could've partnered with 45..........jezuz........not really!!

6:52

wow was the zapper a cia asset at one point??? guy was like a prophet or sumtin 2017

Zappa's move(s) against a non-theocratic, anti-fascist, humanist and emancipatory part of Europe will live in ridicule and infamy. In fact, he was a tool for the objectives of the USA as it turned out to be. History has shown that people don't give a rat's ass about liberty.

wow, great info! ive been looking to develop a trade with the soviet union for a while now

The Soviet Union dissolved a few years later ('91 I think). Was Zappa getting in on the ground floor, way ahead of his time, or just heading down a dead end road? Inquiring minds need to know.

brilliant man.

lol i live in cliffside

I'm quite sure he had no thoughts of replacement of those currencies with the Euro or Amero. He made a disparaging comparison by saying that the Rubel and the Dollar were both worth NOTHING as they were not backed by gold. The Euro and the Amero are valueless in the same way. I'm sure he understood that a nations currency must be attached to something of value to protect it's value, and to protect the people from the banks. He was pretty smart.

Oh my god. You just showed the world how dumb you are. Congrats.

dumbass it was a joke

Russia needs TP :)-

Wow, in 1989 he spoke of the de-commisioning or de-valuing the Rubel and replacing it with a new currency. I'm sure he was referring to the Euro way before anyone else had a clue! This is exactly what the U.S government plans to do with the dollar then replace it with the Amero! However, I'm a bit shocked he would end up a globalist business man. It kind of goes against his past philosophy.

Great interview. Didn't really know how intelligent, sharp and well spoken this man was. He really could see the future. Thanks for uploading!

Holy sh*t, that breakdown of currency conversion in international business was so sharp I'm bleeding.

Fifteen years after his death he's still ahead of his time. Frank truly had the gift of foresight :) But more importantly, Frank usually spoke his mind. And he didn't fear the repercussions of his boldness.

The thing about the environment was really quite starteling, in some ways truly ahead of his time.

Go stick your head in a toilet! Zappa had NOTHING to do with that! It's more likely that big business corporations manipulated circumstances to allow a collapse...since the vultures went in and mopped up and got everything dirt cheap...live long enough and you'll realize that is how the whole world operates at that level.

This is such an interesting side of FZ, one that isn't well-known even among fans. Thanks for sharing!

What a smart man Frank was...
