Music reviews of Apostrophe (')

Music Review: The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe
Rating: 5 Stars

Definitive Zappa. If you like a bit of wackiness with your outstanding music, then Zappa's your man. "Don't Eat the Yellow Snow" introduces us to Nanook. "Nanook Rubs It" involves Nanook and his epic battle with the fur trapper. Next comes "St. Alphonso's Pancake Breakfast" (where I stole the margarine). Included are "Cosmic Debris", "Excentrifical Forz", "Father O'Blivion", "Apostrophe" (another brilliant Zappa solo), "Uncle Remus" (I'll be knocking the jockeys off the lawn) and "Stink Foot", which I find to be just plain hilarious.

If you're a Zappa fan, you already have this. If you don't know much about Zappa, this is an excellent place to start.

Description of Apostrophe (')

Imported from Japan by Rykodisc

Packaged in deluxe mini-album jacket sleeves, these 10 classic albums by rock legend FRANK ZAPPA are now available as limited edition Japanese Imports! These packages re-create the original vinyl packaging in miniaturized form!


Thanks to the surprise radio airplay of "Don't Eat that Yellow Snow," Apostrophe introduced a whole new audience to the music of Frank Zappa in the early '70s. Like its companion set, Over-Nite Sensation, this album found Zappa producing highly polished jazz-rock, mixing tales of absurd characters with musical showmanship and snarling guitar work. The first half of the album is a sort of mini-concept album, relating the adventures of an Eskimo named Nanook, and the second half features such Zappa classics as "Cosmik Debris" and "Stink-Foot." --Andrew Boscardin
