Weasels Ripped My Flesh is Frank Zappa's final album with the original Mothers of Invention line-up, released in 1970. It is seen as one of his best and most well known records, if not only for the infamous gory album cover. Fan favorites "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama", "Oh No" (as a vocal track, anyway; it had previously been heard as an instrumental on Lumpy Gravy), and "The Orange County Lumber Truck" debuted here.The album was recut on CD to restore sections of "Didja Get Any Onya?" and "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Sexually Aroused Gas Mask" that had been cut for time on the original LP edition, including a performance of the Mothers' song "Charles Ives" in the former (this song also serves as the backing music to Captain Beefheart's "The Blimp" on Trout Mask Replica). The 2012 Universal Music edition reverts to the LP mix. The track lengths given below are for the Rykodisc version.The name comes from a short story featured in the Pulp Magazine Man's Life.Tracklist Side One "Didja Get Any Onya?" (6:52) "Directly from My Heart to You" (5:17) "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Sexually Aroused Gas Mask" (3:48) "Toads of the Short Forest" (4:48) "Get a Little" (2:31) Side Two "The Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue" (6:53) "Dwarf Nebula Processional March & Dwarf Nebula" (2:12) "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama" (3:32) "Oh No" (1:46) "The Orange County Lumber Truck" (3:21) "Weasels Ripped My Flesh" (2:08)Personnel Frank Zappa: lead guitar, vocals Ray Collins: vocals Roy Estrada: vocals, bass Bunk Gardner: tenor saxophone Buzz Gardner: trumpet, flugel horn Lowel George: vocals, rhythm guitar Jimmy Carl Black & Art Tripp: drums Don "Sugarcane" Harris: vocals, electric violin Don Preston: organ, electronic effects Jim "Motorhead" Sherwood: baritone saxophone, snorks Ian Underwood: alto saxophone | |

Scare Chord and Sensory Abuse: The title track, consisting of one harsh tone. Near the end the audience is literally stunned. There's some applause, some booing, and Zappa closes the show. | |

Spoken Word in Music: Zappa is heard addressing the audience at several points on this album. Most of the lines on this album are spoken, rather than sung, with only the songs "Directly from My Heart to You", "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama", and "Oh No" as exceptions. | |

Zappa also namedrops Dolphy's most famous album Out to Lunch! (1964) in the lyrics of "Oh No". Some of the music heard during "Did Ya Get Any Onya?" can also be heard as background music during "The Blimp" from Trout Mask Replica The title "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Sexually Aroused Gas Mask" is an allusion to "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" by Claude Debussy. | |

Alternate Album Cover | |
| Weasels Ripped My Flesh (Music) / int_fa77309d | comment |
Alternate Album Cover: Most releases of the album depict a parody of a Schick electric razor advertisement, replacing the razor with a snarling weasel tearing open the customer's cheek. The German release, meanwhile, features a different cover depicting a metal baby sculpture bleeding out while caught in a mousetrap. As the German cover was made without Zappa's approval, reissues of the album universally omit it in favor of the razor cover. | |
