    Surely one of the most demented and bizarre records ever released. Of course, that's what makes it so great! Most of my record collector friends hate this album, but I think it's awesome. When you listen to it be prepared to be transported to a different place in your mind. Besides BEEFHEART & ZAPPA, other records in this anti-music genre are by THE RESIDENTS and early LP's by YOKO ONO / PLASTIC ONO BAND. Stay strange everyone! IT'S THE BLIMP! THE MOTHERSHIP'S THE ONE!
