[facepull123123]

4:38 right after that rockin solo had me groovin

[crackenup55]

His son needs to go thru all his tapes and put a album out just for US zappa fans.Call it" JUST FOR US"

[crackenup55]

this whole ALBUM is great.

[nolatileguy]

This is one of the most incredible pieces of music ever written.Crosses all genres of music in one piece except maybe a polka..........

[crankycraig48]

pure genius the man was amazingly brilliant and misunderstood by many, except for his true fans like us who appriciate truely good music ! Im teaching my daughter the finer things in great music like Franks she loves it, she has favorites like Return to Forever or Al Di Meola, Tommy Bolin, Jeff Beck, Rory Gallagher etc. ! She likes great music with great guitar by great guitarists and she hates the garbage corp music they put out these days, so I guess I taught her well lol shes learning !!!

[The0Endless0Thread]

Wow... nearly an entire YT comment thread consisting of people with the finest taste possible! Miraculous.

[cameriqueTV]

Genius. And ditto on the goosebumps.

[userboy6]

wow how can a guitar solo be so sublime? i get goosebumps every time i hear this

[TheJQ1971]

THE SOLO IN THIS SONG CAN STAND UP AGAINST ANYTHING EVER RECORDED IN ANY GENRE IN ANY ERA



[NimbleWitz]

This is the perfect song.

[The0Endless0Thread]

@NimbleWitz I've been saying that for over 35 years!

[stillbillful]

...@2:00 minutes--blisssss

[probrojeffro]

Frank's body of work is about as far-reaching as one can get for a composer, song writer, social commentariest. Amazing.

[HawkStudio]

Arguably the best musical piece of all time. RIP Frank.

[AlexTronic777]

Everything after 6:40 is like an arcade game on steroids :D

[Wormtongue13]

Probably [often] my favorite of all Zappa songs. Thanks!

[ronzococo]

@Wormtongue13 Same here, man. Jazz fusion/Rn'R fan!

[rjparnell13]

NAPOLEON MURPHY BROCK....poor bugger, he had 2 sing this stuff...lol

[probrojeffro]

Frank said that one of the most under-appreciated people were composers. "Americans are least of all interested or find value in composers." Well, I must not be American because I love your music Frank. You've added much to my existence. Graci!

[newfuckingwave]

@probrojeffro afterall, someone was be completely devoid of musical taste if they can't appreciate the genius who wrote such compelling pieces as 'why does it hurt when i pee?' and 'the voice of cheese' . . .

[TheRealNappyG]

That's Ruth! (Ruth Underwood)

[Nevigo]

Best Zappa guitar solo by far (my opinion).

[tusbluftusbl1]

One of the best  FZ's guitar-solo ...Very important track...George Duke so great... Canzone SACRA!

[DocMascetti]

mamma mia!

[MrSapoten1]

Tout simplement génial incroyable!!!!Zappa est le dernier grand compositeur des temps modernes!!!!THANK YOU MISTER ZAPPA!!!!!!

[Brutz52176]

Zappa is just INCAredible!!!

[GuitarMaster2410]

Frank Zappa, una leyenda insustituible del Rock y de la guitarra eléctrica. Y un músico que supo adaptar su enorme talento a su música, y que consiguió reunir a tan excelentes compañeros tocando en su grupo "the mothers of invention".

[johnnydelbravo]

Wow - what a showcase for George Duke and Ruth Underwood!

[PtitMallerayzan]

That guitar solo is like a Space travel right to the planet Guitar !

So amazing !

[GreeneMachine23]

My favourite Zappa arrangement/solo hands down

[powderguy2]

One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded.

God bless Frank Zappa.

[perromanchado]

My all time favourite Zappa piece, followed closely by Watermelon In Easter Hay

[zapparee]

@perromanchado an enlightened choice

[blackandtanful]

ザッパの痛快"ONE SIZE FITS ALL"からだ!～さらりと天下一品時空ｷﾞﾀｰを披露してくれ­るネ!～名うてのﾐｭｰｼﾞｼｬﾝばっかり!

[gretilandia]

Me encanta Frank Zappa hace sentir mi alma  libre y limpia que sensación tan extraña!

[Ikonoclasto]

This is my favourite song of Zappa on his rock fusion jazz classic fusion.

[bblbuddy]

My absolute favorite song on this album. If I had one song to listen to for the rest of my life, it would be Inca Roads. I get chills at the section at about 6:06, it's out of this world and one of my favorite musical moments EVER.

[hutz]

@bblbuddy Ditto. This song is a miracle.

[vonzeke]

I heard Po-jama People on a low-watt AM station when I was about 17 & bought this record. Life's never been the same.

[mdees100]

70s? dont forget shiek yerbouty. {yeah i misspelled}.

[jacarto]

El solo de guitarra es EL solo.

[marcelbonzo1971]

This was the second album I ever heard of Frank Zappa, my first acounter was "In New York"....for me this is Zappa at his best...but let's not forget the musicians he worked with in that period....

Later work I can appreciate, but I am not keen on Chad Wackerman as a drummer, I do not know why, but I do not like his approach........although Zappa did.....

Thanks for sharing this!!!! Love It!!!

[IncaRoad01]

For some reason I find myself REALLY enjoying this piece ...

[JPMJUANPABLOMARTINEZ]

muy bueno que originalidad!!!

[andreanunez92]

my dad loves him since I was like. unborn. jajajajaja

[MrMLD72MLD]

♥ .

[zzzxxyy]

FZ's best album of the 1970s in my opinion. It was all there.

[DTStrat]

@zzzxxyy You haven't heard anything yet

[zzzxxyy]

@DTStrat I have. I own every record he made that decade on CD. I love it all, but this one stands out.

[hidroensayo]

i've read frank saying that at the beginning duke didn't feel that he was ready to be a lead voice man... apparently he didn't get the right tones and chromatisms on this one... well he was wrong...

[markus777]

thanks for posting this classic forgotten gem (hard to find this older recording of this tune).

[emmadetten]

his masterpiece...everything comes together, his melodic side, his ridiculously complicated side, and his soloing

[moonpagan]

The man was a genius who was never followed, not for lack of want, rather the lack of ability. He was in a class all by himself, a class of his own making. :)

Ron.

( ;-} >

[archietidy]

@moonpagan im disleksick but i think i agree. this album is the reason why i called my daughters sofa 1 and 2 . all my dogs have been modified and are all called evelyn . sorry gail but also gave my son middle name zappa who is now 16 if you have a problem with that deal with him .

[mjblacksher]

Gotta love the rock and roll xylophone on this one...

[oldpat420]

@mjblacksher But it's a marimba...
