Oh no is beautiful, and it's great to hear it cropping up on various live things throughout Frank's career.

My guitar is good stuff as well, especially the weird instrumental section.

Another one I had but sold. A bit of a confusing album. The song titles are good though.

My favorite and difficult to vote for one. I can list some favorite bits.

The segue from Didja Get Any Onya? to Directly from My Heart to You is truly inspired as are both tracks entire.

The Oh No/Orange County Lumber truck section is another great part.

I have to thank The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue for introducing me to jazz. I'd never heard of Eric Dolphy before hearing this and can't say I really pursued it. Then one day I saw a CD called John Coltrane Live at the Village Vanguard and there was Eric Dolphy on the list of band members. I'd heard this Coltrane fellow was legendary but that's about it and had no single jazz record in my collection. I heard Dolphy's bass clarinet solo on Spiritual and now I have a few hundred Jazz CDs. So that track had a life changing effect. I like Weasels as a whole and think Zappa was meticulous in his choice of tracks to include and the sequencing. After many years of listening to it doesn't seem 'difficult' or 'messy' at all but one of FZs most inspired records. I vote for the entire record musically but will vot for "Barbecue" because it opened so many doors for me.
