they should just do that whole album

I've always been under the assumption that Buzz/Dale are not that big of Zappa/Mothers fans, just casual. They probably respect his way of doing things & social commentaries more than the music. Buzz is more of a Beefheart guy. He did say he caught FZ live in '80 or '81, had to be one of those two years, since he said Steve Vai was in the band.

So for the first time in years, I've been re-visiting and digging in to the Holy Trinity of Deep Purple (MK II) releases - In Rock/Fireball/Machine Head. In doing so I was hit with the realization that they (Melvins) must really dig Purple ... alot of this stuff sounds really, really similar to the trip Melvins have been on since absorbing Big Biz ... yeah, totally. Then in the recent "Ask Dale" interview; Crover's accolades of Paice just nailed this realization ... suprised I hadn't noticed it before; I mean those three DP records have been pretty central in my music listening ... I know them inside out as it were. So yeah, suprised I didn't notice earlier

Suffice to say they should cover "Bloodsucker" ... sounds right up this line up's alley ...

Deep Purple-'Bloodsucker'-from 'In Rock'-1970

Replace blip-blop sounds with heavy distortion, thundering dual drums, a droning bass and slow the tempo down to half its pace.

That would melt my 8 bit mind!!!
