A question for Frank Zappa fans

[freako104]

he has an album that is all music but it still got the Parental Advisory sticker on it. which album is that? it has been driving me nuts trying to remember it

 

[unclehobart]

Cripes.. I own just about all of it. Let me go look.

 

[unclehobart]

Jazz From Hell -all music- no lyrics- the explicit lyric is the title of the album itself.

 

[Sharky]

Great googly-moogly!

 

[unclehobart]

Here is the one you seek...

 

[unclehobart]

I have a fairly decent Zappa collection. You wanna know something about Zappa... come talk to the kid.

 

[Ms Ann Thrope]

I only have one album of his. Burnt Weenie Sandwich, I believe is the title.

love his music

 

[unclehobart]

Burnt Weenie Sandwich. That should be the one on the second row from the bottom, 1st one from the left.

Now the big trivia question... Which Zappa album sold the most copies? and why?

 

[Ms Ann Thrope]

mine looks different, Rob, but maybe that's cuz it's vinyl

Apostrophe?

 

[unclehobart]

Apostrophe?

negative. Wasn't the Yellow Snow/Nanook Eats it Medly of common knowledge and almost mythical status.

watch out where the huskies go

I can't find a pic of the original vynil. If you could dig it up and take a piccy, I would be your best friend.

A lyric from the Yellow Snow/Nanook Eats it medley.

 

[Ms Ann Thrope]

That close-up helps, and it looks familiar, but many moons have passed. I'll try and find the album to satisfy my own curiosity, but don't have a digital camera, so you'll have to take my word for it. Sorry.

Rats. My other guess would be "200 Motels".

 

[unclehobart]

200 motels is actually one that I never owned. I shall have to rectify it immediately. It is not the one. It probably wont help... but the answer to my question is pictured somewhere in that numerous album photo... and its not one in the right column that is unreadable due to the lights.

 

[freako104]

thanks Unc it is much appreciated. I only have the one called Frank Zappa meets the Mothers of Prevention album but I wanted to get the one that had no lyrics but somehow got the parental advisory sticker. I want to see if I can find other albums since I really like the Mothers of Prevention album. again thanks. damn thats a collection

 

[Sharky]

Definitely check out "Apostrophe" and "Overnight Sensation". Two of his best albums, imho.

The one that sold the most was the one that had his daughter singing that culture changing song, Valley Girl (was it Joes Garage v1?)
