Title: Run of the mill weirdness
Review: A lot of people are seemingly impressed by weirdness and the social commentary. I can appreciate the weirdness, there are a lot of us who have a very off the wall absurd sense of humour. Zappa is far from unique in this; perhaps a lot of the boring types fail to understand this because they're not that type. I'll take some of the more inventive prog acts from then over this, this is overrated just like Zappa thought the Beatles were overrated. And the music is weirdness packaged as music. It's not clever or interesting. Supersister, the Dutch prog band did it better. I suppose that makes me one of those hippies or perhaps the establishment that the pompous Zappa raved about himself. His own biographer Barry Miles outs him as a pretentious control freak. Whatever, keep the myth alive.
