This album is considered a high-watermark recording of one of the most celebrated incarnations of the Mothers. It features an array of highly challenging instrumentals such as "Echidna's Arf (Of You)", "Don't You Ever Wash That Thing?", and the opening theme of "Be-Bop Tango (of the Old Jazzmen's Church)". It also features "Cheepnis", Zappa's tribute to low-budget monster movies, and reworks of earlier tracks such as "More Trouble Every Day" and "Son of Orange County" (excerpted from the song "Oh No" and given an extended guitar solo). "Village of the Sun" is about Sun Village, California, an unincorporated area near Palmdale, and also makes references to Lancaster, California, twin city to Palmdale and Zappa's hometown. |

This is probably the most significant orchestral work of the 40s. And it is one of the few two-channel recordings by the RCA. Fritz Reiner, the conductor of this recording, happend to be pupil of Bartók. He succeeds to express perfect natural dynamics in this recording. In my opinion, this purist recording is one of the great moments of vinyl history. |

The fourth studio album by British progressive rock band Emerson, Lake and Palmer (ELP) was published in 1973. It is also the first to appear on their own label, Manticore Records. The title is taken from the 1973 released song "Right Place, Wrong Time" by Dr. John. The cover was realized by Swiss surrealist painter HR Giger. It shows a Gothic-looking woman's head, partly machine and partly skull. |
