What did you think of punk?
Well I liked the attitude of punk, I didn't necessarily like it from a musical standpoint; it is anti-musical. The whole idea was we're gonna play shitty and fast and so what? The "so what?" part I always like. But anybody who's against music I don't like. I don't like people who smash instruments. I don't like the abuse of things that could produce beautiful results.
Did you find any punk musically good? What about the Clash?
One of my favorite punk records was "Gidget Goes to Hell" by the Suburban Lawns – I thought that was good.
Did you ever make any punk records?
Oh sure, yeah.
You made punk records?
Not whole records, but some punk tunes: "I'm So Cute" on the Sheik Yerbouti album.
(Quoted from Signs Of The Times)
References to punk in Zappa's work
- I'm So Cute is a parody of a punk song.
- Packard Goose: "All them rock 'n' roll writers is the worst kind of sleaze/selling punk like some new kind of English disease/Is that the way of the future/Oh spare me, please!"
- Tinsel Town Rebellion (The Track)
