5 stars THE BEST POSSIBLE INTRODUCTION TO ZAPPA'S OEUVRE!

If you've never listened to a Zappa album and wonder what all the fuss is about, give this one a try. It's mainly instrumental, very bright in a typically Zappa-esque way and simply irresistible! Great band, great tunes, superb solos for electric guitar, electric piano, trombone, moog and heaven-knows-what-else. And best of all: you'll never get tired of this one. Each time you play it, you'll discover more. A true classic.

P.S. I never really understood why HOT RATS was so famous. Could it be that people - even proggers - simply repeat the views of others? In my opinion, THE GRAND WAZOO is a far more inspired and colourful collection.
