Not a great place to start with Frank Zappa but if you’re already a fan of the early mothers of invention work, this is definitely worth having. A massive medley of complicated instrumentals, doo-wop inspired Mothers of Invention bizarreness, spoken interludes, jazzand general weirdness, Uncle Meat is fun and entertaining though a little scattered. Zappa’s creativity is in full force here which makes for lots of wonderful moments – the King Kongs, Dog Breathand the title track are Zappa classics. […]
