The Torture Never Stops

Hey ... where's my comment

LUV This version !!! Quite different from the original, yet you've managed to get a lot of the breaks and bridges very true to Zappa.

Magic !

Cheers guys!

It was great fun to do - but I'm guessing that you can understand why I don't sing too often.  I'll stick to what I'm passable at.

I don't know the original track but I like this some great little keyboard breaks and a bit Jethro Tullish in places - i like your voice I think it suits the track.

Keep on singing, brother! This is high class stuff!
Only thing I would recommend is to bring the vocal up so it stands out a bit more in the mix. A mere technical point. The song is superb.

Thanks for the kind words Gene.  I deliberately left the "vocals" a bit down in the mix as I don't really see singing as my main strength.  It was a very enjoyable bit of fun though.....

I completely missed this! The production is great, but you should know that already. The voice is great too since it brings a relaxed feeling to the song as a contrast to the lyrics... I could imagine a reggae version of the song with ukuleles and steeldrums...

Never heard the original as i was never a real big Zappa fan either and own none of his work. What i do hear here though is alot of talent. This is quite a long ways from your guitar driven songs and a VERY hard tune to pull off. I think you did an amazingly good job on this tune with a million changes. Bravo!

I'll own up and say this is the only Zappa song i've listened to , out of the whole fest , and it's excellent Chapperz , please sing more , not less , but no more Zappa , 10/10

Wicked cool track, Paul!! I love the original approach, and I think the vocals are awesome.

Those screeches!! Nice! Man, you did a great job with this!
