Biografija uredi
Njegovi roditelji su bili iz Sicilije. Zapina muzička karijera trajala je 30 godina, a započeo ju je 1956. godine u tinejdžerskom sastavu The Blackouts.[2] Tokom tog razdoblja Zapa se pokazao kao vrstan kompozitor, gitarista i vođa sastava. S njim su uvek nastupali veliki muzičari, a u pratećem sastavu obično je imao oko devet svirača. Početkom 1960-ih osnovao je rok sastav The Mothers of Invention s kojim je ostvario brojnu diskografiju.[3] Zapa je takođe režirao dugometražne filmove i muzičke spotove i dizajnirao naslovne strane albuma. On se smatra jednim od najinovativnijih i stilski najraznovrsnijih rok muzičara svoje ere.[4][5] Umro je 1993. od raka.[6]
Kao ostvarenja samoukog kompozitora i izvođača, Zapini raznoliki muzički uticaji doveli su do stvaranja muzike koju je ponekad bilo teško kategorisati. Dok je bio tinejdžer, razvio je interes za klasični modernizam 20. veka, afroamerički ritam i bluz i muziku du-vopa.[7] Klasičnu muziku počeo je da piše u srednjoj školi, dok je istovremeno svirao bubnjeve u ritam i bluz bendovima, kasnije prelazeći na električnu gitaru. Njegov debitantski album iz 1966. godine sa the Mothers of Invention, Freak Out!, kombinovao je pesme u konvencionalnog rokenrol formata sa kolektivnim improvizacijama i studijski generisanim zvučnim kolažima. On je nastavio ovaj eklektični i eksperimentalni pristup nezavisno od toga da li je osnovni format bio rok, džez ili klasika.
Zapin rezultat je objedinjen konceptualnim kontinuitetom koji je nazivao „Projekat/objekat“, sa brojnim muzičkim frazama, idejama i likovima koji se ponovo pojavljuju u njegovim albumima.[1] Njegovi tekstovi odražavali su njegove ikonoklastičke stavove o uspostavljenim društvenim i političkim procesima, strukturama i pokretima, često duhovito, i opisivan je kao „kum“ komičnog roka.[8] On je bio oštar kritičar redovnog obrazovanja i organizovane religije, i iskreni i strastveni zagovornik slobode govora, samoobrazovanja, političkog učešća i ukidanja cenzure. Za razliku od mnogih drugih rok muzičara njegove generacije, nije odobravao drogu, ali je podržavao njihovu dekriminalizaciju i regulativu.
Zapa je bio visoko produktivan i plodan umetnik sa kritičkim stavom; pristalice njegove muzike divile su se njenoj kompozicionoj složenosti, dok su kritičari isticali da mu nedostaje emocionalna dubina. On je postigao izvestan komercijalni uspeh, posebno u Evropi, i veći deo svoje karijere radio je kao nezavisni umetnik.
Zapa i dalje ima veliki uticaj na muzičare i kompozitore. Njegove počasti uključuju uvođenje u Dvoranu slavnih rokenrola 1995. godine i nagradu Gremi za životno delo 1997. godine. Godine 2000, on je rangiran na 36. mestu VH1 spiska 100 najvećih izvođača hard roka.[9] Časopis Roling stoun ga je 2004. rangirao na 71. mesto na listi „100 najvećih umetnika svih vremena“,[10] a 2011. na 22. mesto na listi „100 najvećih gitarista svih vremena“.[11]
