You know you're good when __________? You know you're good when you almost outdo Zappa and the Mama's on an Uncle Meat tune and do it in a capella , Dayum!
*NOT* what I was expecting whilst searching for the Zappa version... *BUT* what a stunning version!!! *Thank you* for uploading!!! People like you keep music alive!
My EAJ moment: I had joined a band of friends at another college - one spring break, we got the use of another student’s basement for rehearsals, that was located at the edge of Lake Oswego, with the basement likely below the average water line. The wiring was old - after plugging in amps and mics, we were getting electrical shocks from mic stands and guitars. While sorting out these problems, someone decided to put some Eggo waffles in the stove upstairs. Eventually, smoke from the burning waffles drifted downstairs, someone yelled “the waffles!” and ran upstairs to take them out of the oven, turn it off, and open some windows. I don’t think we ever figured out the wiring problem, and we were invited to never rehearse there again. Holidays, salad days, and days of moldy mayonnaise! And lots of ramen.
She may be gone, but thanks to Frank Zappa & also to The Persuasions, she'll never be forgotten. "There's only one thing worse, in this universe, that's no Aunt Jemima at all... "

First saw them open for FZ at Carnegie subsequently at Zappa's universe.. haven't recovered
I have loved this song from day one that I heard it. I think it "caress' me".
Laughed my arse off first time I heard this Album! Obtained it on CD, but it got broken but lives on, on youtube!
Arrest me aunt Jemima.
I fist hear this and instantly deemed it NOT to be Zappa, but it was executed so well, I was captivated! Excellent Tribute! Enjoyed it!
Oh blessed a cappella! Of course this makes sense. Perfect sense. Thanks very much.
Thank ya'll and Frank for bigass fingerprint American culture.
Khaki maple buckwheats, fizzle on the stove...
I first fell in love with the Persuasions when I heard them doing Grateful Dead. I could live on their music for the rest of my life.
Zappa had a way of eliciting the most from the Persuasions, including a sense of humor they likely didn't know they had!
Beautifully done! These guys have done a superb job on this cover of Zappa! This version always puts a smile on my face! Thanks for posting!
Cook me up a Bunch Aunt Jemima so I don't have to quit my job!
Hey did see them live in N.J

thanks for this. i had this lp, but it disappeared. who would think the persuasions would do this. great job on frank's stuff.

These guys AND the story behind how they worked with Zappa is GREAT! These are absolutely a beautiful tribute and are so talented.
