Frank Zappa
Quaudiophiliac [DVD-A] (Barking Pumpkin Records)
Compiled by son Dweezil after discovering a dusty old box whilst rooting around at Zappa’s Utility Muffin Research Kitchen studio. The box, including rudimentary drawings which were later deciphered as instructions for playing the contents in ‘surround sound’, turned out to be a four channel mix of Chunga’s Revenge (and bear in mind this tape dates back to Januray 3rd 1970). Excited, Zappa junior dug out several more of these multi channel recordings (several never heard before) and set about giving them a spanking new DTS 5.1 airing. The results are fascinating but in truth probably only for hardcore Zappaphiliac’s.
