Hot Rats

Great album.I still have mine I bought when it first came out and my original Uncle Meat.I was captivated by it over 40 years ago and still am whenever I listen to it.Uncle Meat,Burnt Weenie Sandwich and Hot Rats my all time Zappa classic favorites.I love King Kong and Lumpy Gravy,his first solo Lp.I'm going to see his sons band locally in feb,heard they are excellent,he is a great guitar player,even better than Frank I think.The original Mothers of Invention were a great band.I saw them at the Fillmore East before it closed,his mother walked down the isle to introduce the band.She walked on stage and said I'm pleased to present my son Frank Zappa and the Mothers.

Great album, one of my favorites from FZ... it's packed w/ excellent compositions. Kind of expect that anyone who digs this one could find a lot of his other recordings pretty rewarding. Tunes like Twenty Small Cigars, Blessed Relief, Big Swifty, The Little House I Used To Live In, Zoot Allures and Echidna's Arf will rattle around in peoples brains for a long time.

Duane,

"Blessed Relief" is on Grand Wazoo, not Hot Rats.
Did you perhaps mean "Little Umbrellas?"
