Title: Apostrophe (')
Artiste: Frank Zappa
Genre: Frank Zappa (!)
Familiarity: You know what I've listened to by now guys...

Track 1(Love) A good straight rock song; thought I was listening to CCR for a moment there! Good stuff.
Track 2(Love) Didn't realise we had moved on to track 2. Nice blues feel to this with some pretty tough gee-tar. Lyric is of course zany and ridiculous as ever.
Track 3(Love) Kind of even weirder. Sort of Spanish/Mexican feel. Hmm. Bit of gospel in there too? Even a Yes-style keyboard solo!
Track 4(Love) Very fast and frenetic. Everything so far has run one into the other; bit hard to keep up. This is the first one to actually finish and not segue into the next track.
Track 5(Love) Blues meets gospel, good spoken vocal. Great guitar solo.
Track 6(Love) This is like something off a seventies hard rock album. Again, a really slick guitar solo.
Track 7(Love) My favourite so far (with only one to go)
Track 8(Love) Good old blues tune


End result: It's okay but I don't see what all the fuss is about. Guess I'm just never going to be a Zappa fan.

So, Love or Hate? I say Love, but I don't love it. I just have to say that as I certainly don't Hate it. But it didn't really impress me much.

Chances of a full review: 0/10
