Includes Frank Zappa & The Monsters - Roxy & Elsewhere. A very good Freudian slip.
Zappa’s ‘Baby Snakes’ SG of the late
‘70s was actually an obscure custom copy, but the ‘Roxy’
model he used for this album was a Gibson, albeit modified
with various switches and preamps. His son Dweezil has since
stated that Frank’s tone is impossible to emulate; and even
the briefest of listens to this rollercoaster album will
back that claim.
Key track: ‘Cheepnis’
