Frank Zappa-Chungas Revenge *****
Apart from having a very strange title, which is not very strange for Frank Zappa, but apart from that Chungas Revenge is one of Frank Zappas best straight up rock and roll albums, and really one of my personal favorites of his of all time. Franks guitar playing on this album is among the best of his carear. Very bluesy and very emotion filled. It is almost as if he just improvised instead of writing every note out, I say almost because he would have never done that. The backing band of George Duke, Anysley Dunbar, Ian Underwood, and Mark Volman & Howard Kaylan of The Turtles is fantastic and one of his coolest lineups, really one of my favorites.
Songs like the title track 'Chungas Revenge' 'Tell Me You Love Me' 'Transylvania Boogie' and the excelent bluesy 'Road Ladies' are the real highlights of the album featuring some truly amazing guitar playing. 'Transylvania Boogie' contains a phonomonal guitar solo that is among Zappas best and most powerful. 'Road Ladies' is very bluesy and passionate in the music. The guitar work alone on this song is worth the money of the album. The rest of the songs on the album are good too but this are the real standouts, the true gems, the diamonds in the rough.
The rest of the albums songs are great as well. 'Twenty Small Cigars' 'Would You Go All The Way?' and the albums closer 'Sharlena' are all great songs. The album would be flata with out them. The only song on the album that I am not to found of is 'The Clap.' Im not sure why but I have never been able to get into this track or to enjoy it. But other then that there isnt a bad song on the album. All of the songs have great musicianship and are just all around good songs that anyone would like given the oppertunity.
Chungas Revenge is one of the best albums Frank Zappa albums ever recorded. So for that I recomend it to all who are interested. But Because it is in my opinion Franks most real rock album I recomend this to all rock fans because I know any rock fan would love this. Once you can get past a few goofy lyrics here and there this is a true genius people and one that needs to be appreciated. So do the legend and yourself a favor and give this album a chance.
