Free Music Notes for Joe's Garage: Acts I, II & III

Free Music Review: Aw, come on...this is crap
Hit: 2 Stars

Look, Im a Zappa fan who has listened to most of the man's entire output. I'm in agreement, that Zappa was a unique figure in American music.

BUT
This is his weakest effort, shamelessly pandering to the same people he seems to parody. It's truly air-head rock, not much different than AOL rock, with little Zappa humor and flourishes. The humor is either dated, or aimed at pre-teens. This period of Zappa (early 80's)I enjoy the least.

Zappa was brave. Zappa was brilliant. But Zappa was not occasionaly without fault.
Im sure there are more meaningful performances in the Vault, than this mash-up of psuedo-reggae, glam-rock and purile humor.

Joe's Garage: Acts I, II & III Poster

The Central Scrutinizer is out to protect you from the harmful effects of that horrible force called music. Such is the premise of Joe's Garage, Frank Zappa's three-act concept album which explores the world of groupies, governments, sex toys, and Catholic school girls. As always, Zappa's aim is true and his scope wide, following Joe (voiced by his long-time co-conspirator, Ike Willis) as he starts a band, loses his girl, falls in love with a robot, and tries to find his true place in society. Filled with catchy classics ("Catholic Girls" "Crew Slut") and blazing guitar work ("Keep it Greasy," "Watermleon in Easter Hay"), this is the sort of schmorgasbord of imagination and artistry that only Zappa could produce. --Andrew Boscardin
