Music reviews of Thing-Fish

Music Review: i dunno how anyone could justify giving this nasty poo more than a star
Rating: 1 Stars

comes off like a joke on the listener. I know good music when i hear it which is why i like zappa but this is nearly unforgivable tripe. nearly all this stuff is available in a palatable form in other albums. Im glad i didnt pay for it. this turd definitely stinks.

Description of Thing-Fish

Japanese reissue of 1984 album, packaged in a deluxe cardboard box. Videoarts. 2002.
Broadway the hard way, indeed. Frank Zappa's mock musical is also one of his most scathing satires, and sure to offend the sensibilities of many who hear it. Those who get past its prickly skin will be pleased to discover an ambitious, hilarious, and catchy look at life and love in the 1980's--with an outlook not so good. Government experimentation on prison inmates leads to the creation of a new race of super beings, The Mammy Nuns, who start their own Broadway musical. Yuppie couple Harry & Rhonda come to the show, unaware that they are more than just part of the audience in this production, and find their own lives under the scrutiny of the Mammy Nun's leader, Thing-Fish, voiced by long-time Zappa cohort Ike Willis. Organized religion, homosexuality, feminism, and racial identity are just some of the subjects Zappa throws onto a groove of tight rock and a sheet of vocal sound. Maybe not one of Zappa's best albums, but certainly one of his most daring. --Andrew Boscardin
