Underrated one. This is amongst his best albums. |
I'm not that fond of the early Mothers, but got to admit that Weasels and Burnt Weeny Sandwich have some incredible matierial.
Talking about Zappa:

This is my first listen to the album, and my first exposure to the band.
This is the introduction of the CD, which I thinks says a lot about what is within. "For their 13th album and in their 25th year together, post-punk, art-rock pioneers Birdsongs of the Mesozoic join forces with bass-baritone vocalist Oral Moses, who specializes in the art-song and spiritual repertoire of African-American composers, on a program of well-known spirituals. Together they bring these centuries-old songs into the 21st century"> |
I never exactly could figure out what that album was about, so I never got around to buying it even though it was four dollars. Birdsongs has decent chamber prog cred, but I just never bothered. How is it? |
I'm not really into African American spirituals so this really wasn't my thing. At times, the music wasn't too bad, but the album was really mostly about Oral Moses voice and the spiritual methodd.
