Roxy & Elsewhere

Description

More Info

After his affair with jazz fusion (Waka/Jawaka and The Grand Wazoo, both released in 1972), Frank Zappa came back in late 1973 with an album of simple rock songs (Overnite Sensation). But, the temptation for more challenging material was not long to resurface and, after a transitional LP (Apostrophe in 1974), he unveiled a double LP of his most complex music, creating a bridge between his comedy rock stylings and Canterbury-style progressive rock.
