Seriously, about this Zappa remake thing (and bear with me I'm thinking over the top of the solo in Cruisin' for Burgers on Make A Jazz Noise Here ... woh ...) it's one thing to talk about covering Zappa's music now that he's gone and another entirely to talk about doing covers of his albums. I think if someone wants to do a concept album using Zappa's music that's perfectly legitimate and there's already a lot of good ones available, but the idea of a note for note cover of a Zappa album sounds a bit creepy to me. Now, maybe my logic is a bit flawed but I'm not just applying logic here - I see these as two distinct things and I get very different feelings about them.

It´s like Zappa remixing "Inca Roads" replacing Ruth Underwood with a walkie-talkie.<br>

Oh lighten up people.  It would be fun to hear.  Especially if Mike Patton were involved.  If Phish were still together, I'd want them to do one of the end tracks.

NO doubt Sam.  i could think of better players than the guys from Phish though.
