Frank Zappa - Guitar , Disk 2

music files only



Zappa began his prolific career in the mid '60s as the leader of the groundbreaking band the Mothers of Invention (Freak Out, Absolutely Free, We're Only In It For the Money, etc.). While his solos tended to be short and to the point in this era, he began stretching out considerably in the '70s, on such solo releases as Hot Rats (featuring “Peaches en Regalia”), Apostrophe (') (check out the title track); One Size Fits All (don't miss “Inca Roads”), and Zoot Allures (containing the tour de force “Black Napkins”). In the '80s, Zappa induced nirvana for guitar fans with the “solos and nothing but” series of releases Shut Up and Play Yer Guitar, Shut Up and Play Yer Guitar Some More, The Return of Shut Up and Play Your Guitar, and Guitar. Sadly, Zappa succumbed to prostate cancer in 1993, but his family has continuously released posthumous recordings
