The headphone makes me feel like prisoner.
Living in a close environment with others makes headphones necessary, feel your pain!

Like it myself, easy to add stations too if they are compatible, lightweight and simple streaming radio.

Ahead of his time, got caught up in listening to other pieces, like this one...

And maybe my favorite (there's a KRS-One track I'm forgetting at the moment)...

Thanks to Zappa, who never met his idol neither by phone nor in real life. Varése wrote him a letter.
The album Lumpy Gravy is some sort of Edgard Varèse music collage.

Its cord is uncomfortable, not seldom I forget to remove the phone before standing up. Awkward!
Twitter is the best place to get news, I don't tweet, just read what people post, sometimes I add a comment.
Cristine Hall (Foss editor) tweet awesome tips
Aryeh Gorestky - Technology + Cyber Political
and recently our friend johnraff into political sttuff
Ahead of his time, got caught up in listening to other pieces, like this one...
"The present day composer refuses to die"
Impressive that song.

Same.

This morning, I keep listening to the song "Suzanne", sung by Roberta Flack. Many others have covered this one as well. You can read about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzanne_% … en_song%29

Copying back some bits that were split off to the Audio Hardware thread:
So that's what I'm listening to now.

but still listening to it, currently:

Got my first wireless mouse about 6 months ago, wondering if I should also do the same with headphones. Think forgetting is something we might all do!

Had this album, put the emphasis on "had"!

Freak Out was probably the album that really got me interested in Zappa. Such a great album!

Zappa & The Ensemble Modern
Welcome to the United States
Oh my, as a german i can only share my feelings about that in my own language:
Wenn Frank etwas angepackt hat dann aber richtig. Ich bin in Mainz geboren und mit der "Fassenacht" gross geworden, also ein echter "Meenzer Bub" und deshalb verstehe ich jeden Witz und jede Anspielung auf meine Heimat und ganz speziell meine Region.
Das Frank das verstanden hat ist nur ein weiteres Beispiel seiner Genialität.
Das bekloppte dabei ist: Welcome to the United States = Willkommen in Deutschland

hilarious!
and the guy has such a wonderful german accent.
so this was early 90s?
...yes, the wikipedia page seems to support that timeline.
btw, Ensemble Modern was a german band; i'm sure they told zappa something about what fassenacht is.
a masterpiece nevertheless.
also, wasn't zappa cultural attaché for the czech republic during that time? that would put him quite close geographically.
german "classical" carnival is a grotesque distortion of a military parade meant to be funny & jovial. it's an abomination.
thankfully, many "alternative" approaches have existed for a long time. i used to be very fond of the participatory Geisterzug.
i myself am from Köln originally, could tell you some about both aspects of Karneval... that and the alcohol abuse...
