Nothing like listen to music after reading a story it's based upon.
At one point in the zappa life, he recorded at bolic sound which was owned by ike turner.
He even recruited Tina Turner and the Ikettes to sing on the project. When they finally finished the difficult zappa music, the ikettes were proud of their accomplishment
Ike however had other notions about it basically not getting it. He insisted they not be credited on the original album release. I believe they have been credited on later versions of album artwork.
Anyway, Imagine doing this in the studio. Full band, no overdubs. Oh yeah, no pressure...
(I don't think tina was in this part, she can't be seen in the video)
Ikettes in the studio with Frank Zappa.
(Some samples with Tina Turner and the Ikettes, can really pick her voice out in the samples)
