Notes About This Song

Guitar solo originally from Palladium, New York, USA, 27 October 1978 performed as Persona Non Grata.

In KPFM-FM Radio Interview, 84/5 Zappa told that "Sinister Footwear" is "a ballet about a guy who designs the ugliest shoe in the world and then all the things that happen before you get to wear it. And the shoe has been designed and I just saw like about … twenty pairs of it, sitting around this place, it's really great."
