It sounds rich. It is welcoming. I feel like I am hearing Joe's Garage for the first time. Please click through to this link to read why, including comments from Zappa himself as well as Vaultmeister Joe Travers (who maintains the Zappa archives). Conceptually and musically as challenging as anything Zappa released in the 1970s, three-act rock opera Joes Garage was released as two separate packages. It was the Varse-Webern dual centennial celebration mounted by Jean-Louis LeRoux' San Francisco Contemporary Music Players, a benefit.

Overall, the music on Joe's Garage now sounds much more open and warm. Loud whoops went up periodically, a surprising one after the first of Webern's 'Six Lieder,' Op. And, in preparing this review, I learned some things along the way which some of you may not have heard about yet, explaining just why this reissue sounds SO much better. from the get go, I can happily say without reservation that the new 2016 remastered version of Joe's Garage is a revelation. Originally released as two separate studio albums on Zappa Records, the project was later remastered and reissued as a triple album box set, Joe's Garage, Acts I, II & III, in 1987. An album I more or less ignored for reasons once unknown - Frank Zappa's 1980 rock opera Joe's Garage - is now opening up its riches to me in ways I never expected. In theory, I should have loved the record back in the day. But, I didn't, and I was never entirely sure why I didn't connect with it on an emotional level. Joe's Garage is a three-part rock opera recorded by American musician Frank Zappa in September and November 1979.
