Title: Don't you boys know any nice songs?
Review: This is a collection of the "best" of Frank Zappa. Or, more accurately, the most "commercial" music from a decidedly non-commercial performer. Zappa's only "real" hit was "Valley Girl", although "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" and "Dancin' Fool" managed to achieve moderate success. All of these songs could be classified as "novelty" songs, which would probably tend to be the most accesible type of music Zappa recorded. Almost all of the songs here have at least some humour to them, other than the instrumetals, naturally. Some may complain that this CD doesn't explore a wide enough range of Zappa's music, but it is a good introduction to his music for the uninitiated. I find it thoroughly enjoyable.
