    Much like Evelyn the dog... the answer to your question "Why?" ... is "Why not?"
    When you go back and listen to this album as one complete experience, without interuptions between the songs. You will discover two things...
    1. It is one of Frank's best albums.
    2. You forgot it starts with Inca Roads.

    Andy Devine was always the comic relief in John Wayne westerns and adventure movies. He also played a cameo as Santa Claus in the Batman TV series. His trademark was that high raspy voice.

    Frank Zappa composed/recorded/performed some of the most creative/awesome/wonderful music in the history of music. This is just one example. If he wasn't a creative genius, then there is no such thing ......I was lucky enough to see him in Greenwich Village at a small theater in the summer of 1966 with his group, the Mothers of Invention ...... before he had become widely appreciated as the incredible composer/performer he was ...... what a memory!

    Andy is an awesome track on what (in my opinion) is probably Frank Zappa‘s best album. Besides the musical intricacies and palate of sonic goodies, it’s the voice of Johnny guitar Watson on the Flambay vocals that sells the song. if you haven’t listened to the song “The Illinois Enema Bandit” off of the live in New York album you owe it to yourself. It will blow your mind!

    I bet Frank, like me, was familiar with Andy Devine from the western TV show Wild Bill Hickok, where he played the star's sidekick, named Jingles. Frank was probably just juxtaposing the name Devine, and any devine attributes associated with the word with " Is there really anything good inside of you". Frank was sarcastic about a lot of things.

    Last year I bought a used copy of this album, a vinyl record. I opened it and it had an old newspaper clipping about a guy called Andy Devine dying. I was like, wow, this is so random, who is this Andy Devine, why is it in this album? I put the album aside, told my girlfriend about the weird find. Months later I clean the record and decide to actually listen to it, and I'm like... Oh... There's a song called Andy... It's about Andy Devine. I tell my girlfriend like "I did some hardcore sleuthing and figured out why there's this Andy Devine news clipping in my record, see, with a lot of effort, I saw that there is a song called Andy, about Andy Devine, on the record, give me a medal".

    One of the neatest parts of Andy is how that crazy snare fill part is always doubled by bass. When they're doing it and Zappa is just shredding with wah-wah over it, that's some sensory overload right there. On the cover there is a constellation labeled 'TOO MUCH AIR' :D
    I had indeed mentioned this song but the important thing is, when I saw your video title this morning I said, out loud, 'oh now you have my attention'. I knew you'd love it :)

    Zappa had a specific phrase that he used to describe the difficulty of his music, "statistical density". Perhaps the reason no one has for very few people have suggested the song is during the "Roxy Era" There were dozens of songs with this or greater brilliance, you almost can't pick a mid 1970s Zappa song and say "yeah that wasn't so good..."

    I bought One Size Fits All on vinyl in the first few week after its release. I loved it then and I love now but, almost 50 years later I still couldn't tell you what Zappa was trying to say or why wrote about Andy Devine. I always wondered. Andy Devine was old character actor from the 1930s-60s, most often in supporting roles and comic relief in westerns. He is probably in several hundred films. They both lived in LA, maybe they cross-paths sometime and it's based on a real incident. Then again, it could be some random stream of consciousness type of thing that pop in Zappa's head as he was writing the lyrics. If anybody knows I would love hear the background on the song.

I saw these two kids rate "Brandy" as a top tier song. Imagine! You probably don't know it, because...why? Neither you nor your listeners have such quotidian tastes. Any one of Frank's songs will be nothing like his contemporaries. As Schopenhauer says about that, you cannot achieve anything great by pleasing contemporaries.

    JP... Is there anything more to say about Mr. Z? He's like the Albert Einstein of music in the sense that Einstein was a poor student because his mathematical intellect was far above what he was learning in school. What he was being taught to him wasn't challenging enough so he aspired to outside the box thinking, and we all know the benefits from that decision. Zappa in many respects was the same way, he could write and play the easy stuff and he did do that from time to time to show us that he could. But Frank just like Albert wasn't being challenged enough with conventional musical thinking so he also went to out of the box thinking musically, and we all know how we all benefited from that decision. This was one of my favorite Zappa reactions of yours, he is getting into your bones like it happened to me. You (or I) will never like everything or even 30-40 % of what he's created, but we appreciate his genius 100%. Keep up the great work and I hope your move went well.

    This is a rather disjointed song. I like each individual element, but there's an awful lot of repetition to drag the thing out to its album length.
    That said, when it's good, it's excellent. And the playing is impeccable as always.
    Oh, I was never a Disney guy growing up. I'd choose Aladdin of the 90s revival flicks, but my jam as a child was "The Secret of NIMH". Still is.

      There was a huge amount of filler on Zappa's albums in general, I reckon without all the pointless twiddling he'd have had a couple of EPs instead of 70 odd records lol.

    How do you pick one star from the whole constellation? Andy is a classic

    It's fun to listen to. I was high class entertained.
    I didn't recommend Andy because I recommended Inca Roads. Didn't want to rec. 2 songs. But Andy was always one of my favorites. Sometimes I say this song is a waste of talent. He could have done 4 songs out of the material. 🇩🇪

    I can't be the only one that thinks this was about Frank's dislike of Todd Rundgren.

    As much as I like frank, often he can get a little too 'playful'. I'm sure there was a good tune in here somewhere, but it's so segmented, it become more of a chore trying to pick the bones out of the piece. Initially interesting, giving way to heavy sighs, and eye rolling. As we say in these parts, one of his crew should've told him to wind his neck in.

      That is how I feel about 99.999% of the time with Frank.
