Without researching it, I'm pretty certain that the Ricky Lancelotti sung version of "Wonderful Wino" was recorded during Lancelotti's very short stay in the band, which would have made it circa 1972-73. "Zoot Allures" wasn't released until 1976, where a tighter slightly rewritten version (with Zappa on vocals)appeared.
BUT...The REAL reason I jumped onto this thread at this time...
Long time Zappa keyboardist George Duke died a few hours ago...RIP George

Other than Joe's Garage, this is one band that didn't do much for me. Yes some songs like Titties & Beer, Why does it hurt when I pee, Crew Slut, Dynamo Hum & Muffin Man are good fun, I just don't see them as timeless classics. I can't believe I sat through 200 Motels, as that had to be the most boring Rocumentary I have ever seen!

I have yet to see Python's show.
And as for Zappa, it's a matter of taste. He's a composer and has stacks upon stacks of scores lying around and some people like it and some people don't. Sames as some people like Mozart but others prefer Wagner. Me, I like Chuck Berry.

I once did a drawing of an arm and a berry flying through the air . The question was . Name the singer ?
I see your thoughts have come down to just peoples opinions . Me. I love onions ... Fried .
Python was just one big Musical show with a few sketches thrown in . Shame really . But still I would have loved to be there .
My fav non Comedy Zappa track .
