Frank Zappa - Chunga's Revenge (1970)

Voor mij de eerste Zappa LP die ik bewust ging beluisteren in 1970. Tering, ik was 14 jaar... Moest hem van mijn oudere broer jatten. Dat is lang geleden maar weet het nog als de dag van gisteren. De verslaving aan Zappa's muziek was geboren!

Chunga's Revenge is the third solo album by Frank Zappa, released on October 23, 1970. Zappa's first effort of the 1970s marks the first appearance of former Turtles members Flo & Eddie on a Zappa record, and signals the dawn of a controversial epoch in Zappa's history. Chunga's Revenge represents a shift from both the satirical political commentary of his 1960s work with The Mothers of Invention, and the jazz fusion of Hot Rats.
Supposedly, the title is based off a small industrial Gypsy vacuum sweeper. A "chunga" was a mutated individual of the sort Zappa depicted in such songs as "The Idiot Bastard Son." The term was coined by Dan O'Brien, a teenage Zappa admirer, for the effects of the Hiroshima blast on later generations.
