This week marks 32 years since the International Astronomical Union named an asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter after Frank Zappa, who had died the previous December.
For those not familiar, Zappa was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. His mainstream claim to fame might be “Valley Girl,” which featured his 14-year-old daughter, Moon Zappa. The song made it onto the Billboard Hot 100 and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
Zappa was known for other hits like “Peaches en Regalia,” “Don’t Eat the Yellow Snow,” “Dirty Love” and “Dancin’ Fool.”
