Waka/Jawaka is the fourth solo album by Frank Zappa, released in July 1972. The album is the jazz-influenced precursor to The Grand Wazoo, and as the front cover indicates, a sequel of sorts to 1969’s Hot Rats. According to Zappa, the title “is something that showed up on a ouija board at one time.”
