Frank Zappa
Rock's closest thing to a true renaissance man, Frank Zappa was a brilliant guitarist, a superb composer, a matchless bandleader, and an incomparable social satirist. He started out in the '60s as the leader of the zany avant-rock pioneers the Mothers. His subsequent solo work encompassed everything from jazz-rock to orchestral pieces, always delivered with Zappa's trademark humor. He succumbed to cancer in 1993, but the mind-bogglingly prolific workaholic left behind a staggering body of work. Genius is an overused word in pop, but it applies to the late Zappa in spades.
