As the tapes were not meant for commercial reproduction (they only served for Rosen to write his articles &#8211; you can hear a woosh&#8230;woosh as the taperecorder rolls), the sound quality leaves, shall we say, something to be desired. But who cares! It&#8217;s great to actually <i>hear<\/i> Frank speak in that low, slightly smug, curmudgeonly voice of his, talking about xenochrony, flangers, fuzz, Oberheim small amps, Mod-o-fied Les Pauls, dbx compressors and the like, throwing around some of the quotes that have since started a life of their own (&#8220;the hardest thing for me to do is play straight up and down&#8230;&#8221;).  The CD is accompanied by a 16 page booklet with some rare FZ photos and a peculiar foreword written by Rosen. In all, if you&#8217;re a Zappa-fan, you&#8217;ll need this one in your collection&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From UK based Chrome Dreams comes a new FZ-release: The Classic Interviews.
