Scottish free jazz and improvising vocalist, dancer and performer Maggie Nicols’ “Are You Ready?” album got recorded live at Café Oto in July 2021.
It got released on the Otorku label in 2022.

The final track on the LP, ‘La Vie S’en Va’ was an improvisation around a piece by Zouïna Benhalla, in which Maggie included a part of FZ’s ‘What’s The Ugliest Part Of Your Body?’.
The album got released both as an LP and as a 2 CD set, but ‘La Vie S'en Va’ can only be found on the LP.

Flash-back to 25 years ago, when Maggie Nicols used to perform some Zappa pieces with Pinguin Moschner (tuba) and Joe Sachse (guitar).
'Uncle Meat' made it onto their “Nevergreens” album 1998.
