Frank Zappa – Sheik Yerbouti 2LP Online

Limited double 180 gram vinyl LP repressing. Originally released in 1979, Sheik Yerbouti was Zappa s first album to be released on Zappa Records and contains the FM radio hits Dancin Foot and Bobby Brown amongst others. Sheik Yerbouti represented a major turning point in Zappa s career. It emphasized the comedic aspect of his lyrics more than ever before, beginning a period of increased record sales and mainstream media attention. Sheik Yerbouti remains Zappa s biggest selling album worldwide with over two million units sold to date. The title is a play on words; Zappa appears on the cover in character in Arab headdress, and the name, meant to resemble an Arabic transcription, is pronounced like the title of KC and the Sunshine Band s 1976 disco hit Shake Your Booty .
