Progtastic #88: Progtastic goes Frank-tastic this week. He’s been deceased for quite a long time now and there are a great many of us in what I’m going to call ‘the world’ who are still not really over it. So here, on the anniversary of his departure, is a Zappa tribute with a few tracks from the man himself as well as some of the splendid musicians keeping this wonderful music alive. Progtastic salutes you!
