"'My Mother Is a Space Cadet'" is the first single by Dweezil Zappa, released in 1982. The song was co-written by sister Moon Zappa and Steve Vai. Dweezil was 12 years old at the time of the recording, sister Moon Zappa was 14. The back of the single features a picture of the band, which included Greg Kurstin who would go on to become a famous producer and songwriter. The track was co-produced by Eddie Van Halen (credited as "The Vards", a pun on his mother's pronunciation of his first name Edward), who also plays the (uncredited) slide guitar that opens the song.Dweezil Zappa, Van Halen Rd Table pt. 1 Sunset Sound Recorders | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbtxVvemC2M
