Ring of Fire
One of the funniest versions of Johnny Cashs "Ring of Fire". Typically Zappa!

Comments about Ring of Fire:
Frank is a legend.
Possibly the most advanced mind that has ever lived
I guarantee his reason for carrying out covers such as Ring of Fire, Stairway to Heaven etc was certainly NOT to have any sort of "compariso " to the Original!!

Let's see... Would-be serious musician smart-ass vs. genuine man-of-the-earth singing his own song. Zappa did some devastating parodies; his sort-of intellectual shortcomings are exposed when confronted with the real deal.

Ring of fire is a great song. FRANK is the best musician you've never heard in your life

Wow, Zappas version was really horrible.

Frank only played it because Johnny Cash was at the soundcheck rehearsing Ring of Fire . The man in BLACK was going to play with frank that night but his wife was taken to the hospital,and we all got to miss a classic duet.

Cash's music is like stick figure drawings compared to Zappa's complex and eclectic productions. I guess people just like simple. Ring of fire cover was just taking the piss, like he always did. Smug or not, it's funny.

And Zappa did it just for fun - right? No. It must be a revenge. Because Cash was so popular and this song may be he's best one. Buu - Frank!

Zappa was just taking the piss in his smug, not-very-funny way.

Cash is a master... but y'know what? Eric Burdon and the Animals did a great cover on the album Love Is... thogh Johnny's is still #1...
