I've listened to this so many times. As a rabid Zappa fan, and a huge fans of Mats, I can plainly say that this collection breathes life into these wonderful compositions. Mats always brings a palpable sense of fun to his playing, and he has done Frank proud with this set. You can tell that these songs are in his bones. Highly recommended! Play it again, Mats!

I love hearing these covers from two of my favorite bands (Zappa & The Beatles), but I hate that it's named after what is probably a Beatles song that threatens violence against a woman. Rob Szarka
