Wow! That's a cool version! Is there any way I can get it? CD or record??

I'm so happy that someone showed me Frank Zappa! I was 16 when I got to know him... Now I'm 18 and I still love Zappas music! It's absolutely great!

A shame that this music era ended

Wow.  Fantastic. There is so much great shit I haven't heard, and I've been listening to Frank for 20 years. Great line up.

Vinny is killing the drum beat once the guitar solo starts. Anybody know who is hammering the octave riff with the deep filter while Frank plays lead in the middle. God I love this track.

Great stuff. I love the stop motion, but some of the cutting/editing looks like Michael Bay's movie on speed. Did anyone edit this further, or was it like this originally, because from what I can remember, it didn't use to be distracting, or this fast at all. Thanks.

stumbled across this recording. What a gem! The version on Roxy is great but this is better. Such a good song. Just cannot get that riff out of my head. Thanks for posting.

@AUTOMANUT Hi there I was also 16 when I got to know him, just like you, (now I am 49) but just forget your age...dig his music...outspoken, you have to dig deep, because there is so much he produced..."But one thing I have to tell you is, don't eat that yellow snow."

Arthur Barrow is soooo bad on this version dayum!

[jeffreyhsykes]

This is an addictive song. I love it. On listen 12 for the day. That bass kicks. The rhythm guitar hook is to die for. The solo is so percussive. The lyrics! Oy!
