"The Gumbo Variations" In which Frank Zappa notably steps forward as owner and operator of an electric guitar (with wah-wah pedal). Or at least, that's the impression with which the longest tracks here would leave you, and that's fine. "The Gumbo Variations" choogles and chatters along in suitably funky fashion. Ditto "Willie the Pimp" and, in its quieter way, "Son of Mr. Green Genes." But don't miss the three lovely short tracks here: the small brilliant glories of "Peaches en Regalia"; the kinder, gentler choogle of "Little Umbrellas"; and the fluid deliberations of "It Must Be a Camel." Everything here is interesting and good to hear. Let's call it a classic.buy from CD Universe
