 He's too sophisticated, we're sophomoric

Yes, in a "good stupid" sort of way.

Zappa seemed to like bassists with character who played a little 'out there'. The bassists weren't always the most technically able members of the Mothers, whereas the percussionists, keyboard players etc all had to be well drilled. Especially towards the end he liked having Scott Thunes in the band, even if Scott made mistakes. Scott played powerfully, and Zappa could take lengthy guitar solos.

I think of Mark more like a snow cone in multiple colors.

Crotch wood.
