I can't say I'm a massive fan but that's a bit too far, speaking as someone who once crawled through a wasps nest.

I'm used to those kind of questions. I normally get them with -
- anything by VdGG
- The Jethro Tull Christmas Album
- The Bob Dylan Christmas Album
- in fact, most of my CD collection

Reminds me of a group of us listening quite happily to 'Mumps' by Hatfield & The North, all happily in a mild alcoholic haze & chilling nicely... enter my mate's wife:
"what's this s t??"

Much as I expected. This is why I don't play Zappa when there's other people in the house.

I don't know that particular lyric but my mind is currently having fun running through the various things it could be.

Anyway. Did anyone catch the Afternoon Drama on Radio 4 yesterday "Frank Zappa and Me", a dramatisation of Pauine Butcher's memoir of a similar name about a prim English office temp who was hired to transcribe his lyrics ("Sorry... I only speak English") and then moved to California to be his secretary. Interesting from a Prog perspective but nothing special. |
No I missed that, Sounds like an interesting job, hope she wasn't too prudish.
"Mr Zappa, I can't quite make this one out, something about "ram it up your poop chute"?"

I'm not trivialising this awful act, but (call it the effect of age upon my ears) whenever Boko Haram is mentioned on the news, especially by local journalists, it always sounds to me as if a number of schoolgirls have been taken hostage by Procul Harum
