Call Any Vegetable



I just relistened to Frank Zappa's 1971 album, Live at the Fillmore East, or, Freaks & Motherfu*#@%! for the first time in about 40 years, and marveled again at the visionary talents of this supreme musical weirdo. Of course, Zappa died too young at age 52, and we were deprived of many potential years of his music.

I thought this vegetable song might somewhat counterbalance all the bacon and meat talk on WU.

Yeah, sure--it's 1973 and all your hippie pals are going to give up dope for whiskey just because the maker decorated the boxes like outtakes from Yellow Submarine.
