Talk:The Adventures of Greggery Peccary
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I dispute the claim that Studio Tan is a "Rock 'n' Roll album". The song Revised Music for Guitar and a Low Budget Orchestra show Zappa's new found inclination toward orchestral arrangements and free-form exploration, RDNZL delves further into regions of Jazz than Rock, and Lemme' Take You to the Beach is Zappa's satrical attempt at Beach Pop (particularly referencing the Beach Boys) but of course with Zappa's overt musical trade-mark. Very little of this album can be considered "Rock 'n' Roll".-Someone else
Would it be okay to point out Zappa's use of the 'New Brown Clouds' melody in his early piece, "Calvin and His Next To Hitch-Hikers?" (From The Grand Wazoo). Or that the bit about the love-in being the resuly of 'twelve transistor radios being played at the same time' being a reference to a John Cage "Imaginary Landscape" composition? (I can check the number later, before editing.) -FeralCats
