"Over-nite Sensation" was the first Zappa album I ever heard all the way through. I was about 12 years old, and it really hit home. Because of this album I've managed to collect virtually everything Frank Zappa released. More often than not I've truly enjoyed everything Frank released. "Over-nite Sensation" remains one of my many favorite Zappa albums. It did appeal to me as a 12 year old boy, especially the "naughty" lyrics in "Dirty Love" and "Dinah-Moe Humm". The silliness of raising a crop of dental floss in the song "Montana" tickled my funny bone. The music on this album is best described as rock with a hint of jazz-fusion. This was also my introduction to jazz violinist Jean-Luc Ponty, who plays the amazing solo on "Fifty-Fifty". When I first got this album, I decided that I needed more Frank Zappa. I also decided that Frank was one hell of a lead guitar player. It's almost 40 years later, and the music of Frank Zappa remains one of my favorite ways to pass the time. The man's catalog is chock full of various styles of music. A Zappa album can be classical ("Orchestral Favorites"), balls to the wall rock ("Zoot Allures"), jazz-fusion ("Waka/Jawaka") or any combination there-in. I'm forever grateful to my sister's friend Pete who brought "Over-nite Sensation" to our house that one day. If not for that day, I may not have ever learned about Frank. "Over-nite Sensation" was my introduction to Frank Zappa. His sense of humor is missed. The world hasn't been the same without him.
