Zappa’s been workin’ on de railroad...
(De Grand Funk Railroad, dat Is!)
September 1, 1976
Zappa smirks at his not so meager triumph of convincing Grand Funk that singing through an ashtray will add exotic tonal effects to the band's vocal tracks while Mel works up nerve to ask Frank permission to go to the bathroom.
"The thing that's really great about producing this band was I got to be good friends with all the guys... these guys fart on each other; shoot slingshots, the kind of people I can identify with. — Frank Zappa"
