Frank Zappa cover (from homonymous funky-pop-music-hall 1981 album) performed by Elio together with late-Seventies and Eighties Zappa singer and guitarist Ike Willis.

Live @ Lugano (Switzerland) RTSI "Auditorium Massimo", 24 april 2000. Cut taken from Elio e Le Storie Tese's old'n'rare "Lugano Tapes" VHS: still waiting for mythological so-long-announced DVD release!

It's the true closing of the loop between Zappa & Elio. And YAWYI is one of the band's most favourite FZ album'n'song. In the VHS were also featured two other FZ covers: "Broken Hearts Are For Assoles" and "Why Does It Hurt When I Pee", always performed together with Ike. Elio covered FZ also in "Tutti Gli Uomini Del Deficiente" OST, with "Tell Me You Love Me".

At this very moment, Elio is perhaps the best Italian live band: enjoy! Elii, please, give us that fuckin' DVD!!! ;)

Fantastic. The singers sound like Frank, like a magical composite of his voice. Amazing. It's like Frank and Ike together again.

Not so sure that it's fair to call this a cover as you have the original vocalist and guitar player.

Damn, Ike can't hit the high notes anymore or he's sick. Bummer. I love Zappa and Ike killed it on that last section of this song back in the day even live!
