Topic: FRANK ZAPPA Elimination Tourney: Round 20 RUN-OFF! Posted: February 20 2007 at 02:32 |
Zappa had an unique way of combining serious issues with humour ... the song works both ways. You can either just laugh about the lyrics, or you know that it's about civil rights / race discrimination ... and you laugh too, because of the irony. BTW: George Duke did a nice cover of the song ...

OK Apostrophe is done and we have the five that survive!
I will be making a new poll with 15 of the significant Zappa studio albums that were not in the first poll. Part 2, round 1 will be up right away!

I just love the humour of Apostrophe ... yellow snow, cosmik debris (one of my top 10 Zappa songs), uncle remus ...

Uncle Remus actaully carries a pretty serious message behind it.

Choosing which of this 2 Zappa albums have to be eliminated is like choosing which leg I prefer to have amputated first. This time I painfully voted 'Uncle Meat' and curse those who put me through this impossible test.
