Description

Having just read the retrospective of Zappa's work in Mojo magazine I thought i'd give this cd a try to see if it was as good as everybody was intimating.My tastes in music range from Punk rock through to Heavy metal and progressive rock so I feared that this cd might be too Jazzy for my liking.How wrong could I be? Every single track here is a tour de force of exemplary musicianship coupled with great humour.For me the strangest thing I can say about this collection is that I really cannot put my finger on why I love it I just do!Im so impressed by the production of this cd,the clarity of themore… myriad of instruments is astonishing and i'm no audiophile i've just played it on my bog standard in-car cd player.Trying to single out any stand out tracks is exceedingly difficult as the tracks are all so different but I do especially like the doo wop influenced " Joe's Garage" and the awesome guitar wig out of the "Muffin Man" which has an hilarious spoken word intro.All in all this is a great introduction to a great great talent whose love for music shines through in every track and best of all it's inspired me to get hold some more of his work.
