Commercial Interruption is a Milford, Connecticut-based band that states:
"Playing OUR favorite tunes from the 60's and 70's".
As a happy coincidence, some of the band's favorite tunes are songs by Frank Zappa.
Needless to say that an investigation was at issue.
- commercial interruption: 9
(2018, cd, usa, private release)
And it seems that the band's statement that they perform their favorite tunes from the 60's and the 70's, is probably aimed at their concerts. More like a slogan. A nice one, though.
"9" presents nine tracks, all except one being original compositions.
Inspired by 60's and 70's surf / rock music, this is 'feel good' album.
Cherry on the cake is the final track: a clean and fast version of 'Son Of Suzy Creamcheese'. Love it !!

- commercial interruption: ghosts in the attic
(2021, cd, usa, private release)
"Ghosts In The Attick" has a bit more of a rock sound.
Again, mostly original pieces but with two exceptions: Frank Zappa's 'Twenty Small Cigars' and J.Kidd's 'Shakin' All Over'.

I really love the sound of this album. Add that the tunes are great and that their arrangement of 'Twenty Small Cigars' is beautiful, I can only recommend to give this a listen.
Commercial Interruption proves that bands that have a couple of Frank Zappa tunes on their repertoire are worth checking out.

Visit their website (and be amazed by the Zappa songs these guys have on their repertoire !)
