Zappa & The Mothers - Ontario Slime
Review by Jerry Boutot
Ontario Slime by Zappa & The Mothers is a unique and experimental album that showcases the band's musical prowess and creativity. The album features a range of different styles and genres, including rock, jazz, and avant-garde. The lyrics are provocative and thought-provoking, with Zappa's trademark wit and satire shining through in every track.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Ontario Slime," which features Zappa's signature guitar work and a driving rhythm section. The song's lyrics are a scathing critique of the Canadian government and their policies towards the environment.
Another highlight of the album is "The Poodle Bites," a jazz-infused instrumental that showcases the band's improvisational skills. The track features intricate solos from each member of the band, and is a testament to their musical virtuosity.
