Zappa isn't zany at all dude. Unless you count You are What you Is or Joe's Garage, nothing else he's done is zany. One Size Fits all, Were only in it for the money, Zoot Allures, Grand Wazoo, Hot Rats, Jazz from hell, Uncle Meat, Freak Out, Civilization, none of that stuff is Zany at all. I say Zappa wins because of his classical compositions and guitar melodies. Sofa #1 & #2, RDNZL, Holiday in Berlin, that kind of stuff, and all his stuff with the mothers
Beefheart is close behind though I think. He may not have been as talented as Zappa, but he practically devised a whole new way of making music.
