Waka/Jawaka (also known as
Waka/Jawaka - Hot Rats) is the fourth solo
album by
Frank Zappa, released in July 1972. The album is the
jazz-influenced precursor to
The Grand Wazoo (November 1972), and, as the front cover indicates, a sequel of sorts to 1969's
Hot Rats. According to Zappa, the title "is something that showed up on a
ouija board at one time." This is Official Release #15.
