==References to Zappa==

Thornton talked about his favourite records in a magazine. He claimed [[Trout Mask Replica]] by [[Captain Beefheart]] was one of them: ''“I was already a huge fan of the [[Mothers of Invention]] and the [[Bonzo Dog Band]]. When I first heard Beefheart, it just fit in my world. I think Beefheart’s a genius. There’s no explaining it. Most of my friends didn’t get it.”''

His two other favourite Zappa albums are [[Burnt Weeny Sandwich]] and [[Hot Rats]]. Thornton: ''“In Arkansas, most people didn’t know who Frank Zappa was, or couldn’t care less. I was very different. I played ‘[[Holiday in Berlin, Full Blown]]’ over and over when I was writing "Sling Blade". I love the way this record sounds. I still play it all the time.”''

Thornton also contributed to the ''"Classic Albums"'' dvd about [[Apostrophe]]/[[Over-nite Sensation]] in 2007 where he is one of the people being interviewed.
