The Mothers of Invention were an American band active from 1964 to 1975. Throughout, their output was primarily directed by composer and guitarist, Frank Zappa. Their albums combined a broad span of genres, and utilised diverse instrumentation. Their lyrics were generally humorous, with frequent style-parodies of contemporary pop music (with doo-wop love ballads endlessly lampooned), bountiful surrealist imagery, cartoon-like vocal deliveries and oblique, satirical protest songs.
