Dweezil Zappa
Return Of The Son Of… (earMUSIC)
His old man may have gifted him with one of the most ludicrous names this side of Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence, but he also passed on one of the finest sets of musical genes you could lay claim to, and anyone who thinks Dweezil is simply trading on dad Franks name just needs to lend a shell-like to the extended guitar solo in ‘Pygmy Twylyte’ to hear that Zappa Jr. has a fine set of his own chops, and the band he has assembled do some serious justice to convoluted classics like ‘Inca Roads’ and ‘King Kong’. As FZ’s no longer with us who else is going to keep this magnificent music alive?
