This release is basically the follow up to 'The Hot Rats Sessions' - 'Funky Nothingness', the working title Frank Zappa used for this project, is comprised of studio cuts from 1970.
Frank Zappa used a very stripped-down combo featuring Don “Surgarcane” Harris on violin and vocals. The music concentrates heavily on instrumental and blues-oriented material. This album consists of many unreleased tracks that Frank Zappa bypassed but kept his eye on during his career. He just never got around to releasing them. 90 minutes of music has been mixed for the first time. The remaining music was mixed and edited by Frank Zappa. The vinyl only contains the tracks edited and mixed by frank.
