Frank Zappa - Waka/Jawaka
Recorded in 1972, ‘Waka/Jawaka’ was one of two records that the icon(oclast)ic Frank Zappa made with an ‘Electric Orchestra’ concept - the other being ‘The Grand Wazoo’, released the same year. A jazz-influenced oddity headed by the side-long jazz fusion opener ‘Big Swifty’, it’s reissued for its fiftieth anniversary.
