Talking about music software Frank came to mind because he used one of the first music software tools that he used for jazz.

I like Zappa but JFH is not one of my favorites, a bit too frantic but surely that was FZ's intent.

I like his older stuff. I was surprised by JFH because he is a talented jazz musician but I think it was too out of realm as he intended.
I have spoken to Carol Kaye and she always has great things to say about him as a musician when they worked together.
I seen him perform with Sting in Chicago and it was a great show.

I was able to see him a few times - including at the Wisc. State
Fair, of all places! Silly lyrics paired with absolutely killer
musicianship - I love the discs "Studio Tan" (esp. "The Adventures
of Greggery Peccary") and "Ship Arriving Too Late To Save A
Drowning Witch" (with a young Steve Vai). Good stuff!
