Frank Vincent Zappa (born December 21, 1940 died December 4, 1993) was an American rock and roll’s electric guitarist. Zappa was not only a brilliant rock guitarist, but also an orchestral composer, innovative filmmaker, music producer, businessperson, iconoclast, and perceptive political and social commentator.
Under his own name and with the band Mothers of Invention, Zappa recorded 60 albums in his 30-year career.
A workaholic perfectionist rock star who eschewed the hippie culture of the 1960s, deploring its conformism, spurious ideals, and drug use.

Two years after his death, Frank Zappa was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
