It's a pain to locate, but shortly after Frank died A&E's Biography series did a FZ biography; it's worth the trouble to find it, there's lots of really neat stuff; interviews with Frank shortly before he died, film clips when he was younger, a good live cut of "black napkins", but the best thing is Frank telling about being appointed Minister of Culture for Czechloslovakia (NO SHIT, it really happened) and how the first Bush administraton threatened to cut off aid if they had to deal with him; it's HILARIOUS.
I miss Frank Zappa; as a musician, but also as a Human Being; he was a rare breed; a person who didn't try to bullshit everyone.
