There is a version of this song on the Jean Luc Ponty album 'King Kong'. It's pretty different to the 'Chunga' version. There is new written material on it, it's even slower than the 'Chunga' version, and features Ernie Watts on sax. You could almost call this a Zappa album since he is the 'arranger' and wrote all but one song. Richard Bock is credited as the producer, but he's more of an executive producer (the budget guy). It's a Zappa production in all but name.
