Waka/Jawaka (also known as Waka/Jawaka - Hot Rats) is the fourth solo album by Frank Zappa, released in July 1972. The album is the jazz-influenced precursor to The Grand Wazoo (November 1972), 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. Big Swifty" is a jazz-fusion tune, similar to many of Zappa's pieces from the jazz period of his compositional time line

Complete your Frank Zappa collection. In a Warner PR document, written in August by FZ prior to touring in 1972 (and not circularized until Sep '72), he describes this album as "The Hot Rats Waka/Jawaka album" in his reference to the musical structure of the track "Big Swifty" (The taps on the cover also being tagged "Hot" & "Rats") something that came up using a Ouija board".
Waka/Jawaka was Zappa's second solo album and is occasionally referred to as "Hot Rats II" (the handles of the faucets on the cover artwork show the words "hot" and "rats" instead of "hot" and "cold"). His writing and recording technique had matured a lot in very little time. The dirty blues jamming of the 1969 LP was replaced by clean, crisp jazz improvisations - no need to say this was also an abrupt change in style from the Mothers' 1969-1971 incarnation
