Free Music Notes for 200 Motels: Original MGM Motion Picture Soundtrack [Enhanced CD] AlbumFree Music Review: This album is a sealed tuna sandwich (in a good way!) Hit: 4 Stars
I remember when I finally found this album after a couple of years of searching. It was in the early 80's, and 200 Motels had already been out of print for a long while. The album was more of a legend, like Bigfoot or the Lochness Monster to me then, but I knew it actually existed so I pressed on. When I saw it hanging on a used record store wall it was like I'd found the Holy Grail! I bought it for $60 which was a lot of money for this college student at the time, but I would have paid twice that. Nothing I'd heard or read about 200 Motels quite prepared me for that first listen. I had to try to keep my jaw from constantly dropping open. The combination of Anton Webern meets Fillmore East still blows me away. This album is experimental even for Frank, so I can't really recommend this for the uninitiated. It might scare you away from one of the musical geniuses of our time. But for Zappa fanatics, this is an important and previously rare piece of the conceptual continuity.
