FANS of rock's most avant grade figure will adore this 40th anniversary re-release of his cult 1974 album

The little solo with the slow triplets that follows is one of my favorite Zappa guitar passages ever.

TV dinner by the pool,
I’m so glad I finished school.
Life is just a bowl of cherries,
run from city hall...

And so my love I offer you
a love that is strong,
a prune that is true.

and in that magic gokart
I bite your neck...

[Lurker]

I’ll have to get this one. I’m a huge Zappa fan. Thanks.

IS THIS THE OLD LOFT
WITH THE PAINT PEELIN’ OFF IT
BY THE CHINESE POLICE
WHERE THE DOGS ROLL BY?

IS THIS WHERE THEY KEEP
THE PHILOSTOPHERS NOW,
WITH THE RUGS & THE DUST,
WHERE THE BOOKS GO TO DIE?

[Fresh Wind]

I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed ‘n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little had changed
I am the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I am the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I am the slime oozin’ out
From your TV set

You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t got for help...no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold

That’s right, folks..
Don’t touch that dial

Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’room floor

I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go

[Lurker]

Thanks. That brought back some memories.

There is a Zappa song I like.It’s not on the Apostrophe LP,I think it’s called “Hobnobin with the Goblin.”

We look pretty hot in these clothes
Unless we get sprayed with a hose,
It’s not bad in the day,if they spray it your way,

Unless in the Winter when it’s cold,
and it’s hard if it hits on your nose!

Took me a while to get past the cover, but a great album.

gator,
You got any idea what caused the rift between Collins and Gabriel?

Oh wait, I'm a conservative, I have no artistic side. My bad.

LOL! Liberals' "artistic side" is usually a catch-all excuse for "No ambition, no skills, no talent." I see virtually no great works of art produced by liberals, though it is true many great artists succumb to liberal peer pressure after they become successful and gain something worth looting.
