The Words and Music of Frank ZappaThe Words and Music of Frank Zappa moves beyond the details of Frank Zappa's life (1940 93) toward a focused treatment of the rock and pop songs of this great American composer.

The Words and Music of Frank Zappa moves beyond the details of Frank Zappa's life (1940-93) toward a focused treatment of the rock and pop songs of this great American composer. Today Zappa's music can be appreciated as a whole, emerging as a coherent, thoughtful, and innovative--if somewhat daunting--body of work. Author Kelly Fisher Lowe has left no aspect of that work unexamined, from Zappa's role as a satirist of the highest order to his place in the genre of "progressive rock" and his importance as an influential critic of American culture and society. The volume begins with discussions of Zappa's role as a satirist and his musical style, then proceeds to an in-depth examination of his albums. Through this extended engagement with Zappa's music, a surprisingly clear perspective on his personal views emerges, shedding light on his treatment of such topics as the falsified notion of love in popular culture, the compromising influence of money on popular music, and the concept of freedom in a systematized society. The book includes an official discography and an up-to-date bibliographic essay.Binding Type: Paperback

Size 8 - 15
Size: 10-12, Color: Black 5 Pairs
These socks were so well reviewed that I didn't quite believe my boyfriend when he said they wouldn't fit his size 11 feet.
So I went and tried them on my own women's size 7 feet and yeah, no. Maybe the arch & heel part could stretch to accommodate his feet (but it would be stretched quite thin) but the toe part is already very snug on my short little toes, there's absolutely no way they'd fit his gangly toes.
So I looked at the package to make sure we hadn't been sent the wrong size, only to see "size 8 - 15" on the barcode. So it turns out it doesn't matter what size you pick, this is a one size fits all situation, and that size does not fit the long toes of a tall man's size 11 feet

Quality not as expected
Size: 10-12, Color: Black 5 Pairs
Upon opening the socks looked all right they fit well, but I questioned the durability. Unfortunately, within a few weeks, the stitching started to separate and now their are holes in most of the socks rendering them useless.

made well
Size: 8-10, Color: Black 4 Pairs
These socks fit really well. Comfortable and the price is a breath of fresh air with other brands of toe socks getting crazy expensive. Just went for my evening run and they felt GREAT.

Comfy and Warm
Size: Women 6.5-7.5, Color: Raisin
I'm very happy with these Original Slipper Socks. I normally wear a 6 1/2, so got these in XS/6 1/2-7 1/2. They are a little long on my feet, but they'll do. I'd rather have them be a little long than a little short, and perfectly sized slippers seem almost impossible to find these days. These slipper socks have a nice, comfy wide toe box, and the cushioned sole is soft, warm, and comfy. The suede on the bottom of the sole make these quiet and very comfy to wear around the house. The wool sock uppers are not itchy, but as comfy as a pair of warm socks.

Perfect for cool weather ...
Size: 12.5-13.5 Women/10.5-11.5 Men, Color: Light Grey Ragg Wool
I see a lot of complaints about fit and outdoor use of these ... I mean, these are slipper socks for indoor use! These are not shoes! If you want to walk outside in the snow, put on shoes or boots and then go outside ...
I have two pair of these and they are great! I really like the real leather soles and foam insole, instead of the cheap plastic soles that are sold on most house shoes ... They were a little tight on my ankles when new, but they relaxed a bit and fit perfectly now.
These are perfect for letting the TV watch you, sauntering, meandering, posing, consuming hot beverages, midnight strolls through the house, napping and all sorts of other indoor inactivity ...
It has been a few years, and I must say, my Acorn's are still working strong. It is about 60 degrees inside, and I'm working in the garage on a cold concrete slab. The red stripes look especially special with my Adidas sweat pants.
