What a crappy song, Parson. Good grief. Could only listen to half of it.

You all be safe and God bless.

Linda, to be fair, a little Zappa goes a very long way. I should've issued a warning!

Bless you.

PS. Linda, surely you liked the immortal line, "Walk past the wig store"? It's in the first part of the show tune...

Parson, the music was so bad I don't remember any of the words, haha. I wondered what band it was. Don't think I ever listened to them, sorry. :)

Back-in-the-day when I was smoking unauthorized vegetable materials and thumping bass in a rock and roll band, I read an interview with Uncle Frank in Guitar Player magazine. He was talking about cramming 17 or so notes to the measure that should have held 16th's and other oddities. It takes a seriously unusual person to think in terms of 17th's and wig stores and growing dental floss in Montana.

Linda, Zappa has his moments and the WORDS are where it's at, along with accompaniment. Give it a second or third try.

God bless.

Ah, Wild, you drive a very serious point. 17ths? What?!?

Let's return to this remarkable song.
