I said have you ever heard of Frank Zappa and before I can start to talk about Flo and Eddy and their Happy Together contribution to Live at The Filmore, another kid chimes in &#8211; Frank Zappa? The Muffin Man? After that surreal moment, the rest of the day I heard What&#8217;s The Ugliest Part of Your Body stuck in my head from my favourite Zappa record, that magical masterpiece We&#8217;re Only In It For The Money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>There is a record I enjoyed so much in recent months, called Whack World by Tierra Whack and one of the things that impressed me was the great zig zagging styles and brief song lengths. I started to think this might become a new thing, maybe still it will. Only today while singing &#8220;I think it&#8217;s your mind&#8221; did I remember Zappa did exactly this kind of thing 50 years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a circle with 11 year olds going round stating each one&#8217;s name and favourite song, unsurprisingly I hear them say Old Town Road, Bohemian Rhapsody, Baby Shark and then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/?p=5600\" class=\"more-link\">[&hellip;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"Layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[897],"tags":[],"class_list":["entry","author-rockbob","post-5600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-teaching"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5600"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5600\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobwiseman.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
