  Seven Songs for the Week #84 - 13th Nov 24

  Jason Carty

  I read Moon Unit Zappa's recently released memoir this week and it's quite affecting. I probably can't do it justice in a few sentences. Having read the Frank Zappa book as an impressionable teen, it was sad to read about how alone Moon was growing up, and all the skills and empathy that her parents lacked. Moon Unit & Dweezil Zappa were very ahead of their time, being one of the first set of famous kids who developed a type of proto-viral fame and all the associated parasocial relationships that go with it. Nobody was looking out for Moon. This remix of Valley Girl turns it into a bop, and squeezes out all the Frank distain.
