Frank's my hero! What was the source of this? And why in the world did they censor the word "masturbation"? Good grief!
Anyway, good clip and it's great, as always, seeing Frank and hearing his views. He's the best.

Frank Zappa is a major inspiration for a lot of us. Noone is more punk, credible and confident than this man.
Thanks very much for this inspiring clip. I didn't see this before before.

I'd say the clip is from somewhere between late 1990 and early '93.
He's obviously gone beyond that 1980s 'Emanuel,'/"Que?" - "No entender" / Fawlty Towers bellhop kind of look, and seems to be in the early stage of the whole cancer deal at this point.
(Great clip, nonetheless.)
Frank Zappa is the weirdest, craziest, most brilliant guy. I love him. For all his eccentricity he seems to be one of the most down-to-earth people. Not to mention he's the most underrated guitarist ever!
