Sixty years later, and this groundbreaking album by The Mothers Of Invention is just as fresh as it ever was, and there's a song on this album that has a message that still sends shivers down my bones!
"Well I'm about to get upset from watchin' my TV, been checkin' out the
news until my eyeballs fail to see, I mean to say that every day is just
another rotten mess and when it's gonna change, my friend Is anybody's
guess."
Even though this song was written about the Watts Riots back in 1966, the message conveyed is still as strong as ever, and maybe even more so.
"Who could imagine that they would freak out in Minnesota? . . ."
