The Mothers Are Dead, But Zappa's Still Very Much Alive, by Richard Williams, Melody Maker, 1969.
Frustrating, to be quite honest. The Mothers never did get the respect they deserved -- though Frank's then-upcoming symphony at least marked a start to Serious Musicians taking him Seriously.
Sure would have loved to see the TV show with Jagger, Beefheart, and Captain Kangaroo, too.
