Waka Jawka
I am listening to this CD as I write this review. I bought this CD when
it first came out. I have lost count how many times I have played it. I
never get tired of hearing this brilliant album. I have almost all of
Zappa's CD's and this one together with "Hot Rats" and "Grand Wazoo" are
my absolute favourites because he has allowed himself to concentrate on
producing serious progressive music rather than his more comic and
bizzare CD's. Don't get me wrong - I like almost all of Zappa's music -
it is just that the above mentioned CD's really show us the genious that
was Zappa. Like most of the other reviewers I agree with them that "Big
Swifty" and "Waka Jawaka" are the most incredible tracks on the CD. I
wont bother describing these tracks because words fail me. Let me say
though, that I have lost count of the number of times on a Sunday
afternoons I have cranked up the volume in my lounge room and have
imitated all the instruments in the songs going from guitar to horn to
trumpet and back again. I loose myself in his music. If you are a fan of
creative, progressive, jazzy music then buy this CD - now!
