Since nobody's mentioned it the backing vocals on this album and the Overnight Sensation album were provided by an uncredited Linda Sims, Debbie Wilson and Tina Turner (the Ikettes) both albums were recorded at Ike Turner's Bolic sound studio. All music was written out by Frank except for his guitar solos which were always improvised and never played the same way twice.

[@damonhines8187]

Suite pronounced sweet. From a highly popular period in his career: the mid-70s

[@zappafrank1]

Frank Zappa music is like a movie for your ears.

[@DJBilodeau]

You gotta admit it. . .Frank is different!

[@DJBilodeau]

Frank is not afraid of using classic, jazz fusion, and many other styles. One in particular that comes through is doo-wop, which is the backing vocal style at the beginning of this song. Frank was a big fan of doo-wop amongst so many different styles he could command as a composer.

[@ronlasbury6891]

Franks album, Crusing with Ruben and the Jets, is his homage too close-up music.

[@marcvanderiet5592]

Frank's music is off any scale. No boundaries, real musicianship, totally original, funny clever and just greatness for the ears. Enjoy, digest and listen on!

[@aweebunny]

How about a little 'Cosmik Debris'

[@DJBilodeau]

Wow, and 98 likes as well! That's really impressive!

[@WheresBrötz]

The Queen (or Goddess) of the Mallets on great display here. The lovely and immensely talented Ruth Underwood.

[@DJBilodeau]

Almost felt bad for you reacting to this one, as no one can tell where Frank and the band are going next; surprises (and absurdity) galore! But you stayed with it and did well on this one Philip!

[@DJBilodeau]

Wow, 898 views in 4 days. . .pretty good showing Zappa fans! We could definitely use some expert help from real Zappa fans to parse out for us his long and extensive discography.

[@arjaylee]

Frank composed every note of this.

[@DJBilodeau]

Besides being a guitarist and songwriter, Frank is also formally the band leader, in that he is writing all of these parts and he asks his band members to perform a specific requested way. The result is pure genius.

[@MrWaterpumpkin]

Nice reaction! I like your analysis, you are talanted. You can get much of Zappa and prepare to be sweeped off your feet. Enjoy!

[@PhiliminizzyReacts]

Thank you! Will do!

[@HakanTunaMuzik]

Frank Zappa American Composer, this was written arranged and produced by Zappa, he's also the guitarist on this.

[@Driecnk]

More please

[@christianugolini8493]

"I am a classic composer who play electric guitar in a rock band..." FZ

[@GoodCorporateRobot]

I love watching first time Zappa reactors. Phillip I’m thrilled at how much you enjoyed this. Whoever requested it gave you the perfect introduction to Zappa. I loved watching you facial expressions as you tried to make sense of what you were hearing. Seems to me you’re a great candidate to be a Zappa fan. I really hope you do more, a lot more Zappa. Your world will be better for it, trust me. Great reaction!

[@jonasolsson2256]

Very nice reaction Mr. Philiminizzy! Since you liked this song and it seems like you can handle the complexity of Mr. Zappa’s compositional skils, you might wanna try THE ADVENTURES OF GREGGERY PECCARY. it’s a 20 minutes kind of philisophically, absurd and witty ”mini opera” about different TRENDS that spread out through the land ”using all the means sience have made available”. Looking forward to more Zappa reactions.

[@alldayadventures5418]

With over 60 released albums you will get many request from all spectrum of his music. Waka-Jawaka is a big band instrumental tune that will knock your socks off. The man was a very talented song writer.

[@SPKdesign1]

It's over double that now if you include all the previously unreleased material after he Died and of course the Beat The Boots Boxsets and the "YCDTOSA" CDs.

[@WheresBrötz]

@@SPKdesign1 The Stage series was released by Frank himself, as well as the Beat the Boots, although the Boots series doesn't count as his official 62 albums released up until his death.

[@SPKdesign1]

@@WheresBrötz Yes. I should have worded that better.

[@beeramebroham9210]

Sometimes Yellow Snow is Spilled Beer

[@tixximmi1]

Husky's don't drink beer.

[@stevedotwood]

The legendary Frank Zappa, complex but still very entertaining. Love the reaction. Did you ever hear "Inca Roads" by him?

[@PhiliminizzyReacts]

Thanks for comment and for watching..I just started reacting to him..I wil check it out

[@DJBilodeau]

@@PhiliminizzyReacts "Inca Roads" is a beautiful song by Zappa and the band. It would be a good follow up to this song. I'll look into getting that one to you.

[@lesblatnyak5947]

Frank made 62 albums

[@SimonRHoule]

He released 62 albums. He made many more that were released by the Zappa Family Trust. Up to 128 now. Many double, triple, quadruple +++ box sets.

[@lesblatnyak5947]

@SimonRHoule amazing eh, and he smoked a trillion cigarettes doing it, sadly to his demise

[@SimonRHoule]

@@lesblatnyak5947 not sure of the links between tobacco use and PROSTATE cancer but... Okay. Whatever.

[@tixximmi1]

I have 98 albums from Frank.

[@zachglickman9169]

It starts as a dream sequence.. first words, 'I dreamed I was an Eskimo'. The suite contains a distortion some real life events within the theme.. just like a real dream. Frank's dreams have the best music!

[@lw1zfog]

you need to get on some live clips to see FZ in action

[@PhiliminizzyReacts]

Sure thing...thanks for watching and for commenting

[@DJBilodeau]

Yep, I think you covered all of the main elements of this song! I thought this one was going to throw you, but very good! You stayed up with the mad genius that is Zappa and his band!

[@DJBilodeau]

Boy did you ever throw a curve ball here, Philip! Was definitely NOT expecting this! This is going to be very different; will be fascinated to you reaction to this one!

[@Grithron2]

For what it's worth "suite" is pronounced like "sweet" (French word!) Some useless info - the Yellow Snow Suite (which was "evolved" through live performances/soundchecks, in 1973 and 1974, and then revived/reworked for the 1978-79 tours) contains some overlapping musical material with its "sibling song", Rollo, which appears on the Little Dots album (in its entirety - there are also edits/snippets on some other albums). The main co-stars on this version are Ruth Underwood (percussion instruments) and George Duke (keyboards/backing vocals).

[@WheresBrötz]

When this was released in 1974, it was produced in Quadrophonic. Not many people had the proper audio setup to listen in Quad, but that must've been something to hear!

[@tixximmi1]

Wasn't in Quad. That started in '71. Frank used one of the first 16 track.

[@Le_Serviette_Noir]

@@tixximmi1 Quad started in '71 and Apostrophe came out in '74. Does your statement make sense? The very first sentence on the release, from Wiki: *Apostrophe (') is the sixth solo album and eighteenth in total by Frank Zappa, released in March 1974 in both stereo and quadraphonic formats.* So, ummm. Yes, it was released in quad.

[@DJBilodeau]

So what in God's name can you make out of that, Philip? I'm sure it's totally not what you expected! Going to listen to your take on this one!

[@SimonRHoule]

The man's name is Frank Zappa. Not Frank Zapper.

[@erikahlander3489]

Including what is published after his death there are more than 100 albums to pick from, covering all kind of genres, styles, combinations, and experiments. Be prepared: this will take some time! But before you get totally lost: Check something from the Hot rats album (1969). Instrumental introductions to what to expect.

[@zappafrank1]

127 to be exact.

[@thomasvieth578]

I know this for roughly 50 years (yes), and I still enjoy listening to the entire album except the title piece, which I find utterly boring compared to most Zappa pieces

[@DJBilodeau]

Now that switchup is cruel! It happens so fast, and the style of music couldn't be more more different, lends an immediate air of absurdity to the music. Did you want to laugh, or were you that puzzled by what you were hearing?

[@Le_Serviette_Noir]

The most ridiculous lyrics, set to the most difficult music, played by the most accomplished band of musicians that Frank could assemble and rehearse the F out of to be able to play that music.

[@lepetitoiseau]

@Le _Serviette_Noir Music is the best! Arf!

[@Le_Serviette_Noir]

​@@lepetitoiseau As Frank says at the beginning of Sleep Dirt... Baaaaaaarrrrrrrfffffffff
