Where's Jazz from Hell? It hasn't been eliminated, but it isn't among the options! I'm voting for Joe's Garage. To me, it lacks the inteligence usually exibited by Zappa's best material. -------------   |

Yes, gee, it's Ship. The only tune on it I like is Teenage Prostitute.
Um, where is Jazz from Hell?
|

Date Posted: January 15 2007 at 20:04

Okay let me clarify. Jazz From Hell was not included because I felt that it was a non-essential time period of Zappa's works, where he transitioning to more symphonic pieces (Francesco Zappa was directly before, London Symphony Orchestra was right after) and Jazz From Hell was eclipsed within different compilations, making it sort of lost in the shuffle of time.
Sorry JFH fans! ------------- Beauty will save the world.

Is there a reason that ONE SIZE FITS ALL is not in the poll? |
Posted By: Chris H
Date Posted: January 15 2007 at 21:58
|
Why yes there is. I actually did think out all of these choices before-hand. One Size Fits All is not included because it was recorded during a pre-dominately live era of Zappa music. Roxy & Elsewhere was followed by Bongo Fury and Zoot Allures and OSFA were two studio albums tucked in there followed by Zappa in New York. And as you can see, I chose Zoot Allures from that period because I felt more people would know the album. Maybe I'm wrong, but hey it's too late now.
Sorry OSFA fans! ------------- Beauty will save the world.
