6. I loved it
The late 70s/early 80s were oh so tacky but also oh so fun.
Did you notice how women in that era wore their hair shorter? As a woman who has been through a few decades, I have found the late 1990s/2000s to be very restrictive in terms of women's hair. Short hair is starting to come back in style but it's been out for about 10 years.

He did not have a high opinion of disco--and that's putting it mildly. :rofl:

10. Zappa never had any problems with the things he had to do to
"pay the bills" so he could devote himself to his more serious work.

Or so I've read.

12. I saw that!
I found it when I was looking for classic, campy bootlegs of Dance Fever from people's old VHS (or maybe Beta!) tapes! :bounce:
