Free Music Notes for Over-Nite Sensation
Free Music Review: Have enjoyed listening to it for 36 years, and counting.
Hit: 5 Stars
I've been a FZ fan since I was in 8th grade. I originally bought Overnight Sensation on 8-track when I was a high school senior, back in '73, and literally played it to death. Which wasn't too touch when you consider how flaky 8-tracks were. I replaced it with a quadraphonic 8-track version in '76 and bought it again on vinyl when I bought my Technics Quartz SL10 turntable in '79. I copied it onto a series of cassettes until I finally got it on CD in '88. I've purchased it on CD 3 times since then, but somehow the CDs end up missing. As I write this, a new one is waiting in my "Cart" for me to finalize the transaction.
Just for fun I've read some of the negative reviews of this album, which seem to have been written by joyless pseudo intellectual douches. Just the type of person the late Mr. Z targeted... NOT!!!!! I've found this album to be the ideal introductory album for bringing new-found fans into the fold. It's tame enough for younger teens to sample and enjoy, though Dyna-Mo Hum could perceived as be a bit too raunchy, there's still no actual "profanity" on the album. It's amazing to see someone who has grown up under the prevalence of rap, hear I'm The Slime for the first time and identify Frank's brilliant pre-rap "rap".
IMHO there's not really a bad song on the whole album, though I still have my reservations about Montana. It's a solid album and I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to it for 36 years, and counting.
Over-Nite Sensation Poster
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!
Best known for the infamous "Dinah-Mo-Hum"--a tale of sexual depravity and bovine perspiration--Over-Nite Sensation is a flawlessly executed collection of jazz-rock Frank Zappa classics. The seven-song set, which includes backup vocals by Tina Turner and the Ikettes, equally showcases Zappa's unique penchant for storytelling and the abilities of his studio-musician sidemen. Zappa's guitar work is also some of his finest, flaring up on "I'm the Slime," "Zomby Woof" and "Montana." --Andrew Boscardin
