Thanks for the clarification Fanoga.
Clearly there is a western theme developing here. Maybe Lonesome Cowboy Squirt has some more info to share with us on the subject of love, love on the range.
I always thought Silver had a little hitch in his giddyup, now I know that the Lone Ranger was, "literally", behind it.
Time to move to Montana...whooppeee! |

Frank Zappa / The Blue Light / Hi Yo Silver

| On "You Can't Do That on Stage Anymore Vol 3" the members of the band appear to be amused by the term Hi-Yo Silver. Is this an inside joke with the band? They say it repeatedly throughout the cd, almost to the point of annoying. What's the deal with good ol Silver? |

Having the used cd store call when one shows up has worked well for me. I have yet to be disappointed in the quality and I have picked up some harder to find ones. I belong to an online used cd notice board, they email me when a Zappa treat arrives and ask what is the nearest store location they can ship to.
I have gathered alot lately, obviously these cd's were given as gifts to non Zappophiles.
In case you were wondering I don't belong to an online used tie notice board.

Frank Zappa / Strictly Critique / What's your opinion of Ahmet?

A while back I saw Ahmet host a robot wars show. Bloody embarrasing. Does his name get him gigs like that?
Similarly, I saw Henry Rollins hosting a show (maybe British) along the same ilk as Robotica. Either way, don't these people have underlings that can tell them that hosting these shows is a bad career move?
I guess you have to pay the bills somehow but jeesh, have some respect for yourself.
Ok, back from the tangent, has Ahmet done anything worth while? |

Thanks be to you, and also with you Sofa. I appreciate your lengthy answer, I will wait for the lost passages to show up at later date.
I like the notion that FZ was messing with those sorts that listened to reverse lyrics in the hopes of finding a message, that sounds like something he would do. I will definately have another listen to Sofa to see about him ripping on organized religion.
I missed why you didn't think the song was awkwardly arranged. I know nothing about music and timing "officially" but this song doesn't have a simple pattern that you can tap your toe to. I know that many of FZ's songs had tempo and timing changes - he created his own vision of arranging notes-not following the conventional norm. By awkward, I meant this song just didn't seem to have the routine doowop timing of other songs, where you can get up and dance with your auntie. I have grown accustomed to this awkwardness with Frank now....so maybe it isn't awkward anymore?...just unconventional - yeah that's what I meant.
Cheers and thanks.

ooops, as they say "my bad" on the mispelled title.
Is the song actually Sofa#2 just played backwards?
Or is it just backward lyrics for Sofa #2 on an awkwardly arranged (forward/normal) song?
Either way, what is the meaning of the lyrics and the backwards purpose? I am sure FZ didn't run a song backwards just for the purpose of this chat room.
Sofa: for sure you must have answers with your nickname.
