Frank Zappa was a songwriter, musician, and guitarist with a career spanning over 30 years.  He was a critic of mainstream education and organized religion, and an advocate for freedom of speech, and self-education.  Unlike many other musicians of his era, he disapproved of and seldom used drugs.  Rolling Stones Magazine ranked him  #71  on the list of  100 Greatest Artists of All Time. "Hot Rats"  is his second solo album, released in 1969.  Five of the six songs are jazz-rock influenced instrumental,  the other "Willie The Pimp", features vocals by Captain Beefheart.  Zappa dedicated the album to his newborn son, Dweezil.  A single was released from this album,  'Peaches En Regalia'   an absolute jazz-fusion masterpiece with a down-and-dirty attitude.  Frank was way ahead of his time.  The gatefold cover is in very good condition with some splatter discoloration.  The vinyl is in excellent condition.  Bizarre Records,  #RS 6356,  STEREO LP.  Thank you for looking.  (Grading Order: Mint, Near Mint, Excellent, Very Good+, Very Good, Good, etc...)
