Produced by Tom Wilson and originally released on Verve, it is widely cited as one of rock's earliest concept albums and the first two-record debut, using satire to turn Zappa's view of American pop culture back on itself. That mattered in 1966: instead of joining the era's flower-power optimism, the album answered it with something sharper, stranger, and much more suspicious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat keeps \u003cem\u003eFreak Out!\u003c\/em\u003e exciting is how many musical languages it folds together without losing its bite. The Mothers move from doo-wop, R\u0026amp;B and blues-rooted rock into orchestral textures, avant-garde passages and full-on studio collage, with Zappa treating catchy songs and disruptive ideas as parts of the same argument. Tracks like \"Hungry Freaks, Daddy,\" \"Trouble Every Day\" and \"Who Are The Brain Police?\" show that range clearly, from social critique to unnerving absurdity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis was the album that introduced many of Zappa's lifelong concerns: pop parody, cultural satire, compositional mischief and a willingness to push rock far past its usual boundaries. Its reputation has held up accordingly, earning a Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999 and a place in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. This edition also reflects the return of the Zappa catalogue to the family's control, part of a remastered vinyl campaign that brought key titles back into print from the original 1966 stereo mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2xLP, 180g, original 1966 stereo mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cq\u003eOne of the most ambitious debuts in rock history, Freak Out! was a seminal concept album that somehow foreshadowed both art rock and punk at the same time.\u003c\/q\u003e - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/freak-out%21-mw0000192864\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eAllMusic.com\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.\u003cbr\u003eHungry Freaks, Daddy\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.\u003cbr\u003eI Ain't Got No Heart\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.\u003cbr\u003eWho Are The Brain Police?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.\u003cbr\u003eGo Cry On Somebody Else's Shoulder\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.\u003cbr\u003eMotherly Love\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.\u003cbr\u003eHow Could I Be Such A Fool\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.\u003cbr\u003eWowie Zowie\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.\u003cbr\u003eYou Didn't Try To Call Me\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.\u003cbr\u003eAny Way The Wind Blows\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.\u003cbr\u003eI'm Not Satisfied\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11.\u003cbr\u003eYou're Probably Wondering Why I'm Here\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12.\u003cbr\u003eTrouble Every Day\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13.\u003cbr\u003eHelp, I'm A Rock\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e14.\u003cbr\u003eIt Can't Happen Here\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e15.\u003cbr\u003eThe Return Of The Son Of Monster Magnet\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Dutch Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44488518205505,"sku":"7993877","price":82.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/824302383414.jpg?v=1787901799","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/frank-zappa-freak-out-2xlp-381603","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
