The Mothers of Invention (compilation) — 317

ALBUM: The Mothers of Invention (1970)

MVC Countdown: 3.5/$$$$

Frank Zappa records tend to be worth a little more in the resale market. This is a greatest ‘hits’ album of early stuff before Zappa put his name out front of the band, which was made-up of former members of the 60’s rock/pop group the Turtles.

I will be writing more about Zappa when I get to the Z’s. He can be brilliant and disgusting, often at the same time.

Meanwile, enjoy (if you are able) songs such as Wowie Zowie and Who Needs the Peace Corps and Flower Punk. This album had a median price, used, of $12 on Discogs; it’s probably the least valuable of my Zappa stuff.
