Shut Up N Play Yer Guitar

[CrusaderFrank]

I cannot have a serious discussion about guitar players with anyone who does not own SUNPYG. How? It's like talking about physics without knowing who Einstein was.

The first guitar sound I heard that caught my attention was George Harrisons's feedback maybe-thumbnail-on-the-string intro to "I Feel Fine" The next unforgettable sounds was Clapton's Yardbird's "I Ain't Got you" solo. It was like he pinned the listener against the wall with his intensity

I went though a Page Beck Hendrix and Blackmore frenzy but once you hear "Inca Road" or "Montana" it's really hard not to want more. Did you say you want some more? Well here's some more!

SUNPYG is a 3 CD collection of nothing but solos. It dwarfs the creative output of every other famous guitar player just on the sheer volume and magnitude of the undertaking.

And to answer the obvious, "Yeah, but Purple Haze/Stairway To Heaven/Tale OF Brave Ulysses is a better solo" comment, well you never once heard "Heavy Duty Judy" so how can you possibly judge?

[Bones]

I want a nasty little jewish princess
With long phony nails and a hairdo that rinses
A horny little jewish princess
With a garlic aroma that could level tacoma
Lonely inside
Well, she can swallow my pride

I want a hairy little jewish princess
With a brand new nose, who knows where it goes
I want a steamy little jewish princess
With over-worked gums, who squeaks when she cums
I don't want no troll
I just want a yemenite hole

I want a darling little jewish princess
Who don't shit about cooking and is arrogant looking
A vicious little jewish princess
To specifically happen with a pee-pee that's snappin
All up inside
I just want a princess to ride
Awright, back to the top...everybody twist

I want a funky little jewish princess
A grinder; a bumper, with a pre-moistened dumper
A brazen little jewish princess
With titanic tits, and sand-blasted zits
She can even be poor
So long as she does it with four on the floor
(vapor-lock)

I want a dainty little jewish princess
With a couple of sisters who can raise a few blisters
A fragile little jewish princess
With roumanian thighs, who weasels n lies
For two or three nights
Wont someone send me a princess who bites
Wont someone send me a princess who bites
Wont someone send me a princess who bites
Wont someone send me a princess who bites

More lyrics: Frank Zappa Lyrics



Classic. Zappa is the pinnacle of humor/surrealist rock (and jazz, classical, and well...almost every style possible)

As far as his technical material goes, it's awe-inspiring. Even his "simple" jams are gold.
