Mothers of invention

[Jason Yan]

A rock band of the mid-to-late 1960s. The best known member was [Frank Zappa]. The band made six albums and did three tours, but was not economically successful, which led to such musical [gems] as No Commercial Potential.
As musicians, however, the band was very successful and influenced much of late-60s American rock. Among their better-known songs were Brain Police, [suzy creamcheese], and Kansas.
