Info for You Are What You Is (Remastered)

You Are What You Is" setzte Frank Zappa 1981 in eine stilistische Linie mit früheren Studioalben wie "Over-Nite Sensation" und "Zoot Allures": Die 20 Songs der damaligen Doppel-Album sind straff arrangiert - ungleich improvisierter Klangausflüge anderer Zappa-Alben. Frank Zappa, der Songwriter, läuft hier zu Hochform auf. Lyrisch nimmt der Sozialkritiker und Satiriker Zappa die USA der beginnenden Reagan-Ära aufs Korn, die Ära der Yuppies. Ein Video des Titelsongs mit einem Reagan-Doppelgänger wurde von den US-Behörden zensiert.

Auf "You Are What You Is" featuret Zappa erstmals seine damals 13jährige Tochter Moon Unit als Sängerin - im Folgejahr sollten die beiden Zappas größten Single-Hit "Valley Girls" veröffentlichen.
