Proud papa Frank, along with offspring Moon Unit and Dweezil on the CBS News Nightwatch program in October of 1983. Topics include pumpkins, why Zappa loved Halloween and how they’re a normal family (Moon: “We watch a lot of TV… and everything.”).

And then the conversation turns to “swearing”—a topic that seldom seems to come up anymore in a post cable TV world—and how “Valley Girl” was misunderstood by teenage girls who actually aspired to be “Valley girls” themselves. (Frank: “Ignorance is its own reward!”)

The entire Frank Zappa catalog is getting sonically refurbished and remastered by the Universal Music Group. Everything from 1966’s Freak Out to 1978’s Sheik Yerbouti—are already out, with the next dozen releases on the way.
