Zappa boys rock!

"Few realize what a skilled guitar player Dweezil is, but it is evident here - although only once or twice in that 'big hair' 'whammy bar' '80's band' sort of way. Mostly it is jamming riffs and understated melodic work. Ahmet shows off his talent as a lead man and is quite a good screamer. Together they exhibit a humour which DOES belong in music, to which they owe their father, but they make it all their own with numbers like 'Doodledang' and 'Silver Lady Disco'. Quite funky and rocking -- although obviously a sophmoric basement project with the boys playing most of the instruments. Also a couple of touching numbers about FZ's death."
