Zappa was a better musician, Beefheart was a better poet. Infact beefheart in my opinion was a master of poetry. I gotta say Zappa made better music though, as much as I love Beefheart.
The Shiny beast of thought, if you got ears, you gotta listen
Old women sweat, young girls glisten
The extract you got is the extract you got. Hop on the dot. X Extract
Drop by drop, light by bright, night by light
amazing poetry if you ask me, and I'm not even a huge poetry fan
