By popular request and since the zappa.com FAQ is rather unclear about it: the upcoming release (fall ‘03) of “Trance-Fusion” is a collection of unreleased Zappa guitar solo’s, apparently not focusing on any particular era. An “advanced copy” leaked as early as 1993, revealing the following track-list:
- Chunga’s Revenge
- Bowling On Charon
- Good Lobna
- A Cold Dark Matter
- Butter Or Canons
- Ask Dr. Stupid
- Scratch & Sniff
- Trance-Fusion
- Gorgo
- Diplodocus
- Soul Polka
- For Giuseppe Franco
- After Dinner Smoker
- Light Is All That Matters
- Finding Higg’s Bison
- Bavarian Sunset

You seem particularly well informed about this.
Obviously we all know Chungas Revenge but what about the other tracks listed ? Are we going to get some lovely little nuggets in there ? Is it like the other “Guitar” sets where we can play spot the tune which provides the solo? Whatever it is I’m looking forward to it.

Well I’m hardly an authority ian (information is not knowledge!)… I culled the info from one of the many Zappa yahoo-groups (Zappa-List to be exact). I’ve read someone who stated it was the best “guitar” album in the FZ catalogue. We’ll have to wait and see…
