JOE'S GARAGE, ACT I

Frank Zappa is a genius. Every song on this album is great. The first song I ever heard by Frank Zappa was Joe's Garage. I had read about him when I began reading about progressive rock with King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Yes, and Rush. I was watching the classic rock channel on tv when Frank Zappa came on. I have loved his music every since. This is a great concept album, with great, funny songs on it. I love the central scrutinizer that narrates the story. Catholic Girls is a hilarious song that leads into Crew Slut. After a number of great songs comes the guitar masterpiece Watermelon in Easter Hay. Joe's Garage is a wonderful prog album that is great for any Zappa fan.
