For the first time I tried to use bold and italics (sp??) in my review. But, my review ended up like this:  RIO/Avant-Prog(Studio Album, 1972) ZAPPA, FRANK "The Grand Wazoo"  My first real introduction to Zappa, and it still remains one of my favorites by him. This albums is similar to Waka/Jawaka and Hot Rats , though even more jazzy and weird. Very good playing from the musicians on the album, notably from George Duke and Aynsley Dunbar.The title track is a great 13-minute opener full of great solos. The orchestra fits very well in that song too, making this album even more interesting. (5/5) "For Calvin" is a slower and more avant-garde tune and is the only track on this album with vocals. (4/5) "Cletus Awreetus-Awrightus" is the shortest and most entertaining track on the album (4/5), followed by the brilliant "Eat That Question", that is easily one of my favorite Zappa tunes. (5/5) "Blessed Relief" is a beautiful, laid-back conclusion to the album. (4.5/5) Clocking in at 37 minutes, there are no weak songs on this album, In my opinion. Overall rating: 4.5/5 - Highly recommended to any prog collection. Zappa fan or not. It should be like this:
