The 18th studio album from this artist from USA.
Frank Zappa did the percussion, guitars and vocals here.
As usual, he had lots of guests here who provided drums, bongos, percussion, bass, keyboards, synths, yodeling and vocals. A symphony orchestra provided woodwinds, strings, piano and a conductor.
This album takes Frank Zappa firmly into the avant-garde territory.
It opens up with a twenty minutes long waste of time where Frank Zappa expresses his hatred towards trends and all who are into trends. This in a dialogue over a decent melody line. It is still twenty wasted minutes.
The three other tracks are both better and more interesting. Revised Music For Guitar And Low Budget Orchestra is a quite good composition, clocking in at almost eight minutes. The two other compositions are fairly decent.
The result is a decent album. It is not one of his better albums though. It feels like this album is half-baked and nothing more than that.
