Allmusic.com gave Frank Zappa Meets The Mothers Of Prevention a 3 star review:
Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention is a transitional album that sees Zappa turning away from rock and putting more time into his Synclavier compositions. This is a year away from the computer-only (minus one live track) Jazz From Hell. So the album presents a handful of computer pieces (“Aerobics in Bondage,” “Little Beige Sambo”), one rock song and one rock instrumental (“We’re Turning Again” and the complex “Alien Orifice”), and a couple of attempts at pairing real performers with the computer (“Yo Cats,” “What’s New in Baltimore?”). Most importantly, the U.S. version of Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention contained “Porn Wars,” a sound collage of excerpts from the PMRC hearings — the lobby group wanted a law instructing record companies to put warning stickers on offensive albums.
