atari2600land's Blog - The Gumbo Variations

[RSS Bot]

I just got back from Best Buy with CD in hand and am currently listening to "The Gumbo Variations," a song that clocks in at 16 minutes and 56 seconds. Said song is by Frank Zappa, and is on the album called "Hot Rats." I think I may have found my equal in weirdness. I sometimes tape myself fooling around on the keyboard and "wrote" an impromptu "song" called "I Like Bacon" that's a little over two hours long. Some other titles of my songs include "Fun With Salt," "Atomic Feast," and "Abburido Burrito," (abburido is Spanish for "boring"), while Frank has titles of songs like "Peaches in Regalia", "It Must Be a Camel," and "Weasels Ripped My Flesh." Too bad he died young in 1993. He was the voice of the Pope in the Ren & Stimpy episode "Powdered Toast Man", next to the amazing veteran voice actor Gary Owens who played the title character, mainly known as the announcer guy on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In. And, by the way, thanks for your opinions on GoSub. They really do matter.
