By this stage, Zappa had thrown away his jazz rock stylings and launched into hard rock with determination. This is a heavy album with plenty of great solos from Zappa. He is supported by a very young Steve Vai on stunt guitar and Ray White and Ike Willis on rhythm guitar.

It also features the excellent drumming of Vinnie Colaiuta. According to Wikipedia, he has won a total of 18 Drummer of the Year awards from Modern Drummer magazine’s annual reader polls including ten wins in the best overall category.

To complete the band line-up, Tommy Mars and Bob Harris play keyboards and Arthur Varrow plays bass. There is little brass on this album although trumpet played by Harris makes the occasional appearance.
