Alright, so, first off, lemme apologize for not updating for like, months and months and months. I've been busy with school and art and a multitude of other things. It's good there's new people, I thought this place was as dead as.... well, who do you think? ;3

Anyway, if I recall from last time, I was gonna post up some songs (well, the entire album) from Thing-Fish, which was probably one of Zappa's best, and strangest projects in my opinion. Unfortunately, the Zappa Family Trust was at it again, with Gail doing the usual, and making sure there's no free Zappa shit on youtube, while you have to go and spend $40 for a CD of Joe's Garage... Fortunately, it all seems to be back up, so you're in luck! ;3

So, I'll post the songs, but the thing about it that I really wanted to share, however, is the NSFW spread in Hustler that Zappa did, with pictures from what would have been the Broadway show. Yes, pictures from your favorite songs, like Briefcase Boogie, for instance. I'll also post a link to the hustler article, which is hilarious. Larry Flynt said it was the weirdest thing he had ever put in that magazine, and that says a LOT.

So here it is, but, before I post the link, once again I'll put a big 'ol NSFW before it, since you wouldn't want your boss/teacher/parents to walk in on you looking at pictures of some crazy-haired blonde porn star with huge tits crotch-riding a huge fountain pen or briefcase, with some tasteless look of ecstasy and disgust on her face while she's watched by a giant potato-headed whatchamacallit, an unnamed Italian, an over-educated shithead in bondage gear, and some mammy-nuns.

But then again, that shit's still not anywhere as strange as half the shit on FA, and, honestly, what the fuck are you doing perusing FA at school or work, anyway? You want everyone thinking you're some kind of a freak? Huh? ;3

So: http://home.online.no/~corneliu/thingfish2.html

You go and enjoy the hell outta that (I know I did, ha ha ha), you'll laugh your ass off. Best viewed while listening to the album, which is probably one of Zappa's best (or worst) works ever, depending on how you look at things. Definitely his most misunderstood, and one of my favorites:
