🎧 Band: Frank Zappa
💿 Album: Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar
📅 Date: 1981
🌍 Country: Europe
🏷 Label: CBS 66368
🎛 Features: 3 x vinyl Box Set Limited Edition

This is a three vinyl box set, originally released as individual albums.
- Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar
- Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar Some More
- Return of the Son of Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar

These are all guitar instrumental tracks. No orchestrals, no famous songs... only guitar from live performances between 1977 and 1980. Zappa carefully selected and edited these improvisations into complete pieces, creating one of the finest showcases of his guitar playing.

Personally, I have never been a great fan of Zappa's guitar solos. They can go for too long, and Zappa was very technical when it came to playing guitar solos. He uses a different approach to his solos, having the whole band follow him, rather than the usual rhythmic guitar solos other bands do.
I like the melodic guitar solos more, hence my preference goes for Mike Oldfield when it comes to guitar performers.
Then again, even Jimmy Carl Black from the Mothers once said in a documentary that Zappa was not a great guitarist when he joined the Mothers.

This box set might be a challenging listen, but it is a treat for Zappa's guitar fans.

Got this box set not too long ago. Particularly because there are some good guitar solos, and particularly the in-between tracks have the same type of intro as he did on Läther, Joe Garage and Thing Fish.
It's a nice box to have if you like rock guitar solos.
