3.0 goodGamamJ | December 21st 20

Zappa is incredibly hit or miss for me, but this is a brilliant showcase of a hit albums from him. Fusion through and through and through, the album showcases great playing. Most of the tracks are instrumental which I strongly prefer as far as Zappa is concerned.r

4.5 superbCyan isn't a shade of blue. | May 4th 14

This is one of his best jazz-fusion albums, only second to Hot Rats. "Cletus Awreetus-Awrightus" and "Blessed
Relief" are basically perfect. I love how Zappa can jump from making a jazz album like this to a rock-satire
album like Over-Nite Sensation. He can do it all!
