Frank Zappa "Zappa In New York"
By António Macedo, p 9


Automatic translation: A Frank Zappa album is always something new, a mix of madness and common sense, energy and sentimentality, a lot of virtuosity and a few “out of tune” notes. This "double", now released among us, is no exception to the rule but is a little far from what we have heard from him solo or with Mothers of Invention with whom, calmly but surely, he established himself as a vanguard of the Rock world to the point that, currently, there is no "label" capable of defining and framing him on its own. «Zappa in New York» confirms this very thing – but it also confirms the unavailability of this 35-year-old musician to only get directly involved in «causes or mass movements». Zappa sets the tone, says what he has to say, fulfills what he considers to be his obligation – after that, no one sees him again.

Vol. 1 No. 27

Frank Zappa "Studio Tan"
By António Macedo, p 9


Automatic translation: Frank Zappa is one of those musicians who never tires of surprising his most loyal followers. This time he appears in a work that he himself defined as being for «low-budget guitar and orchestra» and, therefore, does not count on the collaboration of anyone else. The winner is the listener who finds in this full-length all the precious linguistic and instrumental subtleties of this fascinating and controversial musician whose imagination seems to know no limits.

Vol. 2 No. 53

Frank Zappa "Sleep Dirt"
By António Macedo, p 9


Automatic translation: Wasn't this the album that Zappa was expected to make at that time? Probably not. But the truth is that that is what he did and he must have had more than excellent reasons. "For now, for now" this "Sleep Dirt" is lascinating. Zappa is here delirium taken to its ultimate consequences, a shortness of breath only recoverable in the "blank" required by the transition from the first to the second side of an album not to be missed.

Vol. 2 No. 58

Frank Zappa "Sheik Yerbouti"
By António Macedo, p 9


Automatic translation: A new Frank Zappa album is always, in fact, a new album – this one is no exception, and the rule is also the temptation to say that it is the best ever by one of the most brilliant creators of Rock. (read more)

Vol. 2 No. 61

Frank Zappa: um músico definitivo, uma obra de reticências
(Frank Zappa: a definitive musician, a work of reticence)
By António Macedo, p 9


Automatic translation: «Everything has already been said about him – or almost. We know his quirks, his quirks. Rather than describing the Zappa myth once again, we are interested in talking to you about something that has been somewhat forgotten: the music and its sources. In Zappa’s work, each album is a sequence of the previous one (the famous conceptual continuity) in a thousand and one ways. Here, then, is the entirety of Zappa’s work, laid bare not to destroy the legend but for its own glorification». (read more)
