When Frank Zappa Made a Band of Groupies|Vinyl Monday

92.9 The Torch | October 18, 2024



Love is only for giving, and something that cannot be taken!

Welcome (or welcome back) to Vinyl Monday! This is my weekly series where I give the who/what/when/where/why and how I feel about classic albums in my collection. But sometimes, it’s an album like THIS. My thoughts on one of the most bizarre nuggets to be released by Frank Zappa’s Bizarre Records: the one and only GTOs album, Permanent Damage (released 1969) Subscribe for more Vinyl Monday and vintage fashion!

This episode is dedicated to GTOs in the cosmic ether, Miss Christine, Miss Lucy, Miss Sandra, Miss Cynderella, and Miss Mercy,
and Cynthia Plaster Caster who traverses with them,
to Miss Sparky and Miss Pamela preserving the legacy of the GTOs,
to the Beatle Band-Aides for keeping the old-school groupie spirit,
to Daniel and Jesse,
and to all the unknown, unnamed groupies who’ve kept rock-and-roll alive for the past 60+ years
overtly, openly, organically, occasionally,
Outrageously.
