I have to admit that I was never a huge Zappa fan.  Although I loved the weird genius of his music I couldn't listen to too much at a time so I wasn't going to submit anything for the fest - then I remembered this one.  I don't own any Zappa CDs (I've got some on vinyl but no deck anymore) so I put the basic piano down from memory.  When I checked on youtube for the lyrics I see that I've got some of the chords a bit wrong - or "different" at least. I couldn't be bothered to start again and maybe it works....

The other thing is that I can't sing.  I've been recording my music for many years but have never before recorded me warbling - and you will hear why.  It was quite fun to do though.

And don't worry - the torture stops after about 5 minutes.

This is wickedly cool and your vocals suit it very well. Great job...love the screams and all the subtleties coming out of your synth...Your voice reminds me of The Jazz Butcher aka Pat Fish.

Really cool recording!!  I don't know this FZ tune, but all the cool sound effects and instruments sound great along with the rest of the keyboard work and singing ~ very cool!
