Summary: it's a classic
Comment: Frank Zappa has a talent for creative goofiness. That means, even though your first opinion upon listening to any one of his albums (except Hot Rats) is that he's deliberately singing in a goofy style, his ability to put a song together creativey and make it sound like something *no one* else could possibly create makes him an original genius. It really does.
Over-Nite Sensation captures every aspect of Frank Zappa's creative and silly side perfectly. Could it be the ultimate Frank Zappa album? Well, I choose Hot Rats as the mans BEST album, but Over-Nite Sensation isn't far behind. This album, unlike Hot Rats, has vocals, and silly lyrics about going to Montana, dental floss, um... girls doing naughty things, and more!
Meanwhile, his FLAT OUT AWESOME guitar soloing skills are implemented into the songwriting, and other unpredictable things such as female vocals in the background.
It's just a really great album, though a very short one. I highly recommend this album. You might not like it, I admit, because he really dips into his goofy side here, but he also backs up his silly ways with great songwriting and a creative touch unlike anyone else.

Summary: Frank Zappa - Moving To Montana
Comment: Zappa had been around for quite a while by 1973 with somewhat limited success commercially, but that would all change with the "Overnight Sensation" album. This would be Zappa's first album to go gold in the U.S. and would actually get some airplay on more progressive oriented radio stations here. To many longtime Zappa fans this album was a bit of a commercial sell out, while at the same time it opened up Frank's music to a whole new set of fans. I have mixed feelings about this album, some of it is brilliant and some I find a bit annoying. "I Am The Slime", "Dirty Love", "Dinah Moe Hum" and "Montana" are all prime Zappa satire. On the other hand songs like "50/50" and "Zomby Woof" grate on my ears every time I listen to them. In the end I give this one 3.5 to 4 stars.
