I was considering a 4.5 about 8 minutes in, but the patience is not with me to listen to the podcast episode he just slides in. The mishmashing and chopping all those glorious little song bites works absolute wonders though, and it may well deserve a higher rating, but you really cant be blamed for not having the attention span to listen to half an hour of it.

Terrible. Just a mash-up of all-sorts of half-arsed orchestrated weird sections tht can barely be considered music more than just random sounds. Half of the album is not even music, just talking. No idea what Zappa was trying to do here, but it sure as hell did not work for me.

Christ, I love this more and more every time I hear it. Probably be a big fat 5.0 before I know it.: Well I was right.

Lumpy Gravy serves as Zappa's first solo musical outlet, along with bridging the gap between his work with The Mothers of Invention rather seamlessly. The album isn't a heavy one - it counts in at approximately 31 minutes and 40 seconds and only consists of two tracks. Each of these tracks, entitled Lumpy Gravy, Part 1 and 2, is accompanied by a series of sub-track titles that help navigate the song. These sub-titles are pretty useless here though, and they do little towards the navigation of this pretty unaccessible material. Lumpy Gravy, Part 1 is really the only piece worth listening to, as it consists of almost entirely music and omits the nonsensical noise and speech. If you've come across this one and couldn't get into it, don't stop here, Zappa only gets so much better his discography goes on. (Rating: 2.9/5)
