[sunflower53671]

<333333 Love Him:D

[ulyssesjim]

SOPA and PIPA will lead to the Central Scrutinizer

[bheadh]

You got that right, If we ain't already there with all "the slime oozin' out from our TV sets". I actually think we've already been unloaded.

[romanticwarrior97]

2 dislikes? WTF?

Philistines.

[vividman100]

"Turn it down ! "Turn it up more like..

[BA5966]

You don't hear lyrics like this much any more.

He used to cut my grass. LOL

Absolute genius

[shasta1953]

he stands next to hendrix as far as guitar playing, and lead the way for warren zevon, david lindley as far as awesome lyrics set music......

[MrJoezig]

like when he testified in the senate and asked tipper gore to come over and see his kids toys

[bheadh]

Frank was a modern day prophet, Have a listen to "The Slime" and tell me it hasn't become "entirley too correck" (from "you are what you is")

[smackythefrog23]

@bheadh the USA is about 5 minutes away from being in the White Zone.

[JonBenait06]

It's 'scrote-inizer' as in 'scrotum'

[defib1961]

Way to go butt nugget. Do you know how lame your little "The Central Scrutinizer" lead in sucks? Moron. Otherwise the song, as all songs from Frank, is great.

[69XxPYROxX69]

@defib1961 by the way the central scrutinizer is the way the actual song starts on the recording

[toobularbells]

@defib1961 Clearly not a true FVZ fan.

Nuff said

[larjanus]

@defib1961 haha you're dumb

[fategbe]

A BRILLIANT SOCIAL COMMENTARY SET TO MUSIC. GOTTA LOVE ZAPPA

[starchildstrider]

One of my favorite lines out of "The Central Scrutinizer" is: "... the Constitution is being modified right now, to accomodate the future." Just another shining example of how insightful Frank was about observing our Government. I venture to say that everything he predicted would happen in the future; has happened. He would not hesitate to speak out against social and political injustice; we need him here today.

[HiwattGuitarsDDR]

1 of the greatest creative works of all time. If you don't have it, GET IT!!



[BeondaPale]

1:05 = A siren, a duck call and a xylophone never sounded so funked up together.

[tikaltemple]

Frank lived well!!

[bergving]

Timeless :)

[tab6812]

fucking A++++

[ThatkidwithCP]

Oh God I remember when I first heard this album. I was a little middle-schooler in the early 2000s...still great.

[rob1000r]

first of his many albums that i listened to...wow, best thing i 'd ever heard (14 or 15) still think he is the best 30 years later

[jfrog324]

dont you boys know any nice songs?!?!?!?!?!

[vorlons100]

this is really happening folks its true frank saw it coming years ago its no joke thats why he never got air play the masses would have awakened and look out

[HPLovecraftCultist]

it still makes me mad that zappa is dead, and there wont be any more music from him.

[rob1000r]

@HPLovecraftCultist

he lives on with his legacy of music, which all genarations to come will discover and love

[ThePogle]

16 mushrooms top trip!

[Audhluma]

3:37 after the word "Park", if you listen very closely, you can hear what I think is Frank saying "Makes it's own sauce"

[NotComingBack01]

He always reminded me of a sea lion on that album cover. Only a sea lion would incorporate xylophones.

[vanhalen515084]

gotta love this piece, first time i heard it, first thing i thought, i have never heard anyone whispering into a mic, and what a cool sound, what a genius, and to have vinnie on drums here, his drum sound is always the best, thanks frank for making this album, i love it

[hoplite46]

The Central Scrutinizer sounds like another name for the NSA

[fuckheadproductions]

[hawk1866]

the genius from PALMDALE, CALIFORNIA. Shows what can happen when you grow up in the Mojave Desert! He performed with the greats....and the greatest....from guitar players to the best strings in the business......the NY Philrmonic....he was the best in the most WARPPED way.......long live Joe's Garage and his satirical view of the music biz....

[andronikosly]

frank zappa , bach and miles davis was and are gonna be for ever the best musicians of all the world

[ItsNowAlways]

@andronikosly Wow! I thought I was the only guy who thinks Zappa & Bach are the greatest! Hey, bro!

[H1J9D7V9]

@andronikosly And two of them are the best composers of all time.

[fadethetrade]

@andronikosly Beethoven eats Bach for Breakfast!

[nicklocalzo]

IF ONLY THEY COULD HERE IT

[MsJadeHamilton]

I first heard this album when I was 13. I had no idea whyat was going on. Probably just as well.

As an adult. I love its scope and think the lyrics are clever. Even if they're very,ahem...adult.

[GrandFunker]

The white zone is for loading and unloading only...don't forget it nigga!

[fadethetrade]

@GrandFunker YOu should listen to "you are what you is" song/album from the same name! "he learns to play golf,gets a good score,now he ain't "no nigga" no more.

[ranjihabarnabab]

@GrandFunker You'll love it!

[GrandFunker]

The whote zone is for loading and unloading only...don't forget it nigga!

[GrandFunker]

[Garwood900]

One of my fav Zappa albums!

[dead4fun]

I'm calling the police!

[teetomthomas]

If any of you know "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama" , give yourself a four bar intro and you can sing the lyrics over this.

[HammerFloyd]

the central scrutinizer is so badass....... he could be the center of a movie

[pensinger5]

@HammerFloyd I think at one point they tried making a movie for this album. But it would be wayyyyyyyyyyy to explicit for the time.

[HammerFloyd]

@pensinger5 HAHAHAHA even today this album would be a crazy movie....... just imagine the scenes they'd make for sy borg or why does it hurt when i pee..........

[Shackamaxon]

@HammerFloyd In 2008, the Open Fist Theatre Company.performed a play based on Joe's Garage. That would have been awesome to see but Im waiting for 200 Motels, the play. Good luck with that one.

[lesterclaypool1]

@Shackamaxon

"A man from a company we can't name..."

Zappa Family Trust?

[TheAlgyrose]

I fucking love this album, I had to order it and it cost me over £40 over 10 years ago, now my 3 year olds trashed that fucker too.... another track that makes me piss is France. cheers high volage for the awesomly clean upload. top bloke! Now go into the closet!!!

[adamtzsch]
