Two FRANK ZAPPA Books Set For Release This Fall

The Zappa Trust has announced the release of two books honoring legendary musician and composer Frank Zappa‘s legacy: “Zappa Gear: The Unique Guitars, Amplifiers, Effects Units, Keyboards And Studio Equipment” by Mick Ekers with foreword by Dweezil Zappa; and “The Hot Rats Book”, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Frank Zappa’s “Hot Rats” album by Bill Gubbins and Ahmet Zappa.

“These books provide another way for fans to connect with Frank Zappa,” Ahmet Zappa says. “They give a fascinating window into Frank’s mind and the ideas he came up with throughout his career.“

First up, the November 29 release of “Zappa Gear: The Unique Guitars, Amplifiers, Effects Units, Keyboards And Studio Equipment”. “Zappa Gear” offers an unprecedented inside look at the machinery behind the legendary music. In addition to a detailed presentation of the equipment, “Zappa Gear” also introduces some of the pioneering inventors, engineers, and entrepreneurs without whom the instruments would not exist.
