4 stars The soundtrack for Frank Zappa's film 200 Motels features Zappa's work with an orchestra, and the Chunga's Revenge. As far as composition, Zappa getting an orchestra is great, and there are plenty of songs here. Some songs are repeated differently however. Anyways, the concept of life on the road, accompanied with much more nonsense, and the presence of Flo & Eddie make a pretty sleazy tone of course. It's pure Flo & Eddie! The band is in top form on some pieces, and compositions like Strictly Genteel are among Zappa's best and most beautiful. 7.9/10
