For this installment of " Make your own ------ album", I thought we would try Zappa. You get to pick 8 Zappa tracks to go on your own compilation album. The one rule is you can only use one track form each existing album. Pick for any 8 albums you like. Don't worry about song length, just pick 8 songs. 1.Trouble Every Day 2. Peaches & Regalia 3.The Orange County Lumber Truck 4. Eat That Question 5. Zomby Woof 6. Cosmic Debris 7. Catholic Girl 8. G Spot Tornado |

I normally prefer his early recordings with the Mothers of Invention to his later jazz fusion things from the 70's. Not that I don't like his 70's output, but I always felt that albums like Freak Out and We're Only In It For the Money were much richer and eclectic from a musical and artistic point of view, with their seemingly impossible combination of doo-wop parodies, pop songwriting, advanced harmony with elements of both jazz and modern classical music, musique concrete, witty satire and absurd humor.

Hi, This one is easy .... 200 MOTELS and 200 albums in between. It's the story of his life! So why complicate it with the top ten? ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told! www.pedrosena.com |

-So I posted a fake 2LP, listened to my ripped digital version of it both
before and after I posted it here. It's spectacular! I thought about
making four nicely flowing album sides for myself - mostly just to see
what I ended up with. But simultaneously thinking about those who don't get or like Zappa... or gets put off by his cynicism, vulgarity/bad jokes... or just his complexity... because I've heard and read
things like that "all my life". "This'll show 'em" I thought, but I
might be wrong. So what

You couldn't be more wrong than this ... I'm the least religious person you could ever possibly meet. The only "religion" I adhere to is the intuition that helps create the arts. It's much easier to feel it and understand it and not call it "_______________", like most people do here, when the feeling inside it is not invisible, which more often than not, it isn't, maybe with the exception of some of the Jazz guys, and even then, the personality comes through!
You are so far out of your league and ideas, and have no idea what you are even saying ... sorry! Creativity is not something you know or understand! 500+ Foreign Film Reviews ... I have been on the "fight" for progressive and experimental for 50 years. You wouldn't know what fighting for creativity is all about, because during this past 30 years, so much of it has been copy and metronomic stuff, with the same exact drumming for every part of the music. At least in my days, it was quite different and much more creative! 17 Short Stories 5 Novels 400 Poems And I write a lot on progressive music ... which, seems to me, you can only approve some kind of an idea of ... Sorry ... not even worth the discussion anymore! I have a novel to finish, and you are simply making sure I DON'T .... hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
