As a Zappaphile I'm going to have a different top 10 every day of the year depending on mood but at least we can celebrate Frank's birthday with his music. Music is the best.

Going to have an hour of my selected music played on @radiocarolinet15s.bsky.social Wednesday 27 November at 9 am GMT (or anytime for a fortnight with their Listen Again facility). Music I listened to as an adolescent in the 1970s and informed my adult tastes. Chuffed to bits.
