Frank Zappa ORIG UK 2LP Sheik yerbouti EX '79 CBS SCBS83551 Art Prog Rock
Original UK 2LP released in 1979 on CBS Records. Cat: S CBS 83551. Comes in a gatefold sleeve. Has printed lyric inner bags which are in Excellent condition.
In order to finance his artier excursions, which increasingly required more expensive technology, Frank Zappa recorded several collections of guitar- and song-oriented material in the late '70s and early '80s, which generally concentrated on the bawdy lyrical themes many fans had come to expect and enjoy in concert. Sheik Yerbouti (two LPs, one CD) was one of the first and most successful of these albums, garnering attention for such tracks as the Grammy-nominated disco satire "Dancin' Fool," the controversial "Jewish Princess," and the equally controversial "Bobby Brown Goes Down," a song about gay S&M that became a substantial hit in European clubs.
Tracks : I have been in you/ Flakes/ Brocken hearts are for assholes/ I'm so cute/ Jones crusher/ What ever happened to all the fun in the world/ Rat tomato/ We've got to get into something real/ Bobby Brown/ Rubber shirt/ The sheik yerbouti tango/ Baby snakes/ Tryin' to grow a chin/ City of tiny lites/ Dancin' fool/ Jewish princess/ Wild love/ Yo' mama.
