"One of Our Submarines" is also amazing.
I agree with that, terrific track (and that was only a B side of a single).
I found that "Aliens Ate My Cadillac" album to be really sad. After the utter genius of Flat Earth is was such a shameless attempt at a hit album.
Isn'it it a Buick? Hmm, I've got that one to and it has some nice 'ironic' tracks: Hot Sauce, Airhead... I think Dolby wanted to go the funny-Zappa-way with that album, having danceable tracks but with a 'sarcastic' text that are claiming the opposite. But you're right it not his best album (and IMO The Flat Earth is not his best too).
The mix of "Blinded Me With Science" that is on the lp I've got is very different from the radio or MTV versions. Those kind of songs, songs that
Blinded Me With Science (on cd) is the maxi 'Good Heavens Ms. Sakamoto, you are beautiful!' remix. Also submarines is a long version, if I'm correct. Felix
