The Yellow Snow Suite - Frank Zappa

Alright if you are a Frank Zappa fan, like me (He's my 4th favorite artist and probably my FAVORITE composer of all time), than you know that some of his songs have a "Bizarre", I hope you got the joke. But on a serious note this suite is composed of 3 parts part 1 is "Don't Eat The Yellow Snow", part 2 is "St. Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast", and the third part is "Father O'Blivion". The melody was performed in 1973 and appeared on 1974's "Apostrophe (')". On "Apostrophe" it is the first four songs on side 1. Now the that is awesome about this is that it, altogether, is over 40 minutes long. Now only about 12 minutes are on "Apostrophe". I was getting so pissed off because I wanted so bad to listen to it's whole. After searching I found a video on YouTube where it is in 4 parts and was recorded at Sydney, Australia in June of 1973. That is the same version as the one on "One Shot Deal", but this is the whole thing, minus like under 10 minutes of the whole suite. Well I downloaded it and mixed it together with "Father O'Blivion" off "Beat the Boots I: Piquantique" which was recorded in like September of 1973. I know these are two different songs/recordings but it is hands down the best songs over 30 minutes I've ever heard.... Period. Since that I've sat through it about five time in two days. TWO DAYS. The reason is because of the instrumentation. As according to, here, which is hands down the best website EVER, it helped me breakdown the song

PS: Listen to the Apostrophe version before you try to hear the whole thing first. It's much better that way

Don't Eat the Yellow Snow

1. Don't Eat the Yellow Snow - This is one of the well, I like to say, fun ways to start a song/album. The song is kinda humors in a way. The song starts the story about a Eskimo named Nanook of the North and him leaving home.Now this part of the song is very catchy the way he sings the song, and the way the music is
2. Nanook Rubs It - This is the part in the story where he sees a Fur Trapper "Who was strictly from commercial" who is "Stomping on my favorite baby seal" with "A lead-filled snow shoes". So in order to stop the fur trapper he rubs "deadly Yellow Snow from right there, where the Huskies Go" in the eyes of the fur trapper. Which temporally blinds the fur trapper. So the trapper remembers "an ancient Eskimo Legend, where in it was written" that any conflict with a Eskimo named Nanook to go to the parish of St. Alfonzo.

St. Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast

1. St. Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast -This is, in the story, the second part. This is where the fur trapper goes to the parish to steal the "Mar-Juh-Rene"This is another part that is good, This is faster than Nanook and Don't Eat the Yellow Snow. 
2. Rollo - This is basically an instrumental, in the case of this suite, an instrumental part or interlude so to say
3. Father O'Blivion - Don't mistake this for the third part of the suite. This is the part in the story where "Father Vivian O'Blivion"
4.  St. Alfonzo's Pancake Breakfast (Reprise) - this is just a reprise of St. Alfonzo's
5. Mar-Juh-Rene - After the Fur trapper got the "Mar-Juh-Rene" he wiped it all over his eyes and recites what the letters of "Mar-Juh-Rene" stand for.I somewhat feel like the meanings for the letters were improved, because he said that in the One Shot Deal version M stood for Marsupial, and it was recorded in Australia. but what ever. This part is important because I'd never heard it before and I was glad to finally hear it and see what it meant to the story
6. Father O'Blivion (Reprise) - This is where "Father Vivian O'Blivion" catches The Fur Trapper, And the trapper admits to stealing the "Mar-Juh-Rene". And he gets all ofThis part was also awesome because I had no idea that this is what it was about, in the story
7. Eat My Starch - This is where Frank ended the story because this is what he told his followers to "Join the March and Eat my Starch", after they wanted to see what the pink thing hanging out from his "stocking".This is the final part before the instrumental. This instrumental is awesome and this is a good way to end a odd story

Father O'Blivion
There are different parts to this but I don't exactly know what parts what. What I do Know is that I love it. There is a 20 minute instrumental part that rocks. It is much better than anything, in my opinion, Jimmy Page could ever jam out. This One part sounds like a big long sick, amazing guitar solo. And the best part is the guy played it on a violin that was distorted, kinda. It is cooler sounding that any led zeppelin solo I've ever heard or any Aerosmith. I love both of them but this sounds cooler
that's a review... kinda there is parts i probably forgot but i wanted to give input on it. so yeah. If you want me to review something just ask me and ask me to
