Timeline

"A compilation of mostly live recorded excerpts, yet reworked, overdubbed a lot, quirky presence with slippery lyrics as expected, genius is unquestionable, but concerning this issue I always have been focussed on the pervasive jam 'Yo Mama' in particular." (Rivertree, A, )
"Zappa is even more overt with the sexual and scatological cheap shots. While he should ram those up his poop chute, there are some genuinely good songs, filled with funk and guitar riffs. Look past the daft lyrics for the skilled musician." (bartyMJ, C, )
"One of Zappa's fav album for me."Hard Rock in Opposition !!"." (O666, S, )
