The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
Think Dark City, think Truman show , think clown world.

I never really appreciated Zappa ! But when I was in Sweden I remember a family I stayed with and the father lived Zappa ! He showed me an encyclopedia reference that called him one of the best musicians ever, something like that. It was quite an accolade. So I made it a point to listen to it! Well ...it's like drinking expensive Cognac, its wasted on me!

I can't get into a lot of his stuff myself but I adore Hot Rats. It's one of his most accessible works so I would recommend you give that a listen

If I listen to it out would break my 2 year streak of not intentionally listening to modern music!
I'll let you know!
