From the french press-release: “QuAUDIOPHILIAc is the Holy Grail (…) for Zappa fans and completists around the world, presenting previously unreleased tracks alongside re-mixed and re-edited material from the huge FZ back-catalogue, from Lumpy Gravy and Chungas Revenge to Sheik Yerbouti, Joes Garage and Shut Up N Play Yer Guitar all in spectacular Quadrophonic Surround!”

Weekend Edition

Good morning! Some various bits and pieces to keep you occupied during the weekend: Mike Keneally has launched radiokeneally.com featuring “non-stop streaming audio featuring music from all of my albums (including titles long out of print), unreleased live and studio recordings, collaborations with other artists, demos and alternate mixes, schoolchildren singing Keneally songs and, I think, more!”. Go rip him off! You might also enjoy a complete live broadcast of italian band Orchestra Spaziale performing Zappa (grazie evaristo)! Lastly, I’m transcribing an interview Dweezil Zappa had with Sound On Sound Magazine (Sept issue) about the technical side of things at The Vault – many thanks to Ian for sending me the scans. Class dismissed!

On Moving And Testicle Crushing

Service Announcement. I’m back at work now, and the company I work for is in the process of moving to another city. Hence: no internet connection for the better part of this week – posting is going to be scarce. I will of course be monitoring comments and such from home, making spammers’ shit rise up to kiss them where possible. In the meantime, here’s some ways by which you can crush your own testicles in your own home. Thank me not.

Quaudiophiliac

It figures.
I go on holiday for a week, and stuff happens at the ZFT.

GZ: “Not a hunch, not a rumor. We have announced a DVD-Audio release. It is scheduled for a street date of 14 September on DTS label. It is surround sound and is made up of tracks originally mixed/recorded by FZ during the 70’s. It is essentially an audio documentary of ideas by FZ about quad and 4 channel mixes and multichannel recordings. Dweezil tweezed these items into a full on program now entitled QuAUDIOPHILIAc. Obviously, it will not translate on ordinary radio.” Can you say “petite wazoo“?
