Automatic translation: Frank Zappa is an eccentric figure, even in beat music. He's an excellent lead and rhythm guitarist, sports a striking beard, wears checkered pants, and infuses his lyrics with highly original ideas. His first band, the Mothers of Invention, didn't bring him much fame. The ensemble performed music for a film that lasted for hours, and the longer the audience could endure, the cheaper the ticket price. Currently, Frank Zappa plays in a jazz orchestra with the French electric violinist Jean-Luc Ponty and others. (Many former members of Mayall also participate.)

Thus ends "Beat Kislexicon" by Péter Tárdós (Budapest, 1971), which was published in our newspaper for two years and, if evil tongues are to be believed, ensured a continuous influx of applicants for the same period. Should any of our readers come up with material of similar appeal, the editors are prepared, after weighing all options, to facilitate its distribution.
