    what about the lyrics of "Oh, no" from weasels ripped my flesh? they are a parody of "all you need is love"
    but i think that zappa doesn't hate the beatles, he was friend of ringo starr and john lennon; he always hate the hippie movement more than nothing, and probably he feel dissapointed when the beatles take that influence, but they quickly dropped

      WEll i know that Freak out! was a concept album that was released before sgt pepper so i understand if Zappa was bit angry when sgt pepper was praised by critics as first concept album.

        Oh no
        (1:45)
        Oh no
        I don't believe it
        You say that you think you know
        The meaning of love
        You say love is all we need
        You say
        With your love you can change
        All of the fools
        All of the hate
        I think you're probably
        Out to lunch
        Oh no
        I don't believe it
        You say that you think you know
        The meaning of love
        Do you really think it can be told?
        You say that you really know
        I think
        You should check it again
        How can you say
        What you believe
        Will be the key to a
        World of love?
        All your love
        Will it save me?
        All your love
        Will it save the world
        From what we can't understand?
        Oh no
        I don't believe it
        And in your dreams
        You can see yourself
        As a prophet
        Saving the world
        The
        Words from your lips
        I just can't believe
        You are such
        A fool

            I doubt it was The (or 'dee') Beatles trying to steal his thunder and more like the execs and other assorted AH's. Or maybe Paul McCartney since Macca's pretty controlling. Maybe it's a sign that FZ never collaborated with him. I'd say he's taking the mickey out of critics the media with the SP cover.

              Zappa never really had a beef with the Beatles as far as I know. But he was a huge fan of them, however.

                You mean he 'wasn't a huge f111can of them'?
                I think FZ is someone who can look past the hype and the promoters and the PR people and recognise talent or potential. Maybe we'll never really know what he thought. I wonder if Gail does.

                  Whoops, you're right, I meant "wasn't". That's what happens if you don't check your spelling.
                  Anyway, if you want to actually hear Frank speak for himself concerning the Beatles, he mentions them on a Larry King interview. Check for it on Youtube. He said he liked a few songs, but overall, he didn't like the group.

                    You're wrong there too. The first concept album was the Chipmunks' debut album, Let's All Sing With (LIberty Records, 1959). It detailed a fictionalization of an argument between its composer?Chipmunks creator Ross Bagdasarian Jr. a/k/a David Seville?and his son Adam, the latter of which was fictionalized as his namesake son's default public pseudonym Alvin Chipmunk. Bagdasarian Sr. did all the voices, and the music was performed by an early lineup of Zappa's orchestra Abnuceals Emuukha.

                      Frank liked The Beatles, but liked The Rolling Stones more. Please click on
