Krim, It is surely beside the point to wish (or not wish) a stroke (or a seizure, or shrooms, or whatever) on oneself (or anyone else) for taste (or not) in Beefheart (or Zappa) with minimal (or maximal) effort.

The pre-conceptual pre-linguistic immediate experience, that this forum has been interminably debating the existence (or not) for aeons. Regards and sorry.
