Late nite Zappa

Inca Roads, from the One Size fits All record.

There was a time when bands like this had an audience, because the music industry and specifically the music press were devoted both to the notion of rock music as a true artistic form, and to the nurturing of musical experimentation and diversity. Nowadays bands are judged more on how cool or street they are.

I don't think it's possible anymore for a band on a major label to deliver a record with this kind of sensibility.
Oh, and did I mention I have been hopelessly and eternally in love with Ruth Underwood, since I was 15.
