In 1966 his new named band MOTHERS OF INVENTION  signed to MGM-Verve and
released FREAK OUT (1966), a great psych influenced double album  (must be one of..if not
the first double LP in Rock) produced by Tom Wilson.
This and the following albums, showed him as a musical forerunner ahead of his time.... mixing
psych-rock, Doo-Wop, orchester-parts, avantgarde uncluding jazz influences toped and
garnished by his great guitar playing and with his special lyrics.
