Description Frank Zappa - Zoot Allures (1976) EAC rip (secure mode) | FLAC+CUE+LOG -> 253 Mb Full Artwork @ 300 dpi (jpg) -> 24 Mb Zoot Allures, released in October 1976, is mostly a studio album (there are some basic live tracks, as in the title track and "Black Napkins") featuring a revolving cast of musicians who, oddly, do not correspond to the ones pictured on the album cover (for instance, Patrick O'Hearn and Eddie Jobson did not contribute). Compared to previous releases like One Size Fits All, Roxy & Elsewhere, or even Over-Nite Sensation, and to upcoming ones such as Zappa in New York, Studio Tan, or Sheik Yerbouti, Zoot Allures sounds very stripped down to bare essentials. Zappa focused on limited instrumentation, lots of bass, and whispered vocals to create a masterpiece of dark, slow, sleazy rock. Except for the opening and closing numbers ("Wind Up Workin' in a Gas Station" and "Disco Boy"), all the material is slow to medium tempo with Zappa delivering the closest he'll ever get to a crooner vocal performance. "The Torture Never Stops" is the highlight, ten minutes of suggestive lyrics, crawling riffs, searing solos, and female screams of pain. That song and "Disco Boy" became classic tracks; "Black Napkins" and "Zoot Allures" rate among the man's best guitar solos. Historical note: The album was first devised as a two-LP set and would have included "Sleep Dirt," "Filthy Habits," and "The Ocean Is the Ultimate Solution," which all also fit the mood. Although humor has not been completely evacuated, Zoot Allures comes through as a much more serious rock record. Yet, it is more than a transitional album; it represents one of Zappa's strongest accomplishments. -------------------------------------------------------------- Tracklist: -------------------------------------------------------------- 01 - Wind Up Workin' In A Gas Station 02 - Black Napkins 03 - The Torture Never Stops 04 - Ms. Pinky 05 - Find Her Finer 06 - Friendly Little Finger 07 - Wonderful Wino 08 - Zoot Allures 09 - Disco Boy *1995 Rykodisc | RCD 10523 {1995 Ryko Remaster Complete Series} Personnel: Frank Zappa –guitar (all tracks), synthesizer (1, 4, 5, 9), bass (1, 3–7, 9), keyboards (3, 5, 7, 9), lead vocals (1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9) Terry Bozzio – drums, backing vocals (5, 9) Davey Moiré – lead vocals (1), backing vocals (1, 9), engineer Andre Lewis – organ (2), vocals (2), backing vocals (5, 9) Roy Estrada – bass guitar (2), vocals (2), backing vocals (2, 4, 5, 9) Napoleon Murphy Brock – saxophone & vocals (2) Ruth Underwood – synthesizer (4, 7), marimba (6, 8) Captain Beefheart – harmonica (5) (credited as "Donnie Vliet") Ruben Ladron de Guevara – backing vocals (5) Dave Parlato – bass guitar (8) Lu Ann Neil – harp (8) Sparky Parker – backing vocals (9) Enjoy and Sharing, Thanks!
