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.

This is what music is all about! No commercial potential at all.
