It also features a complete discography and a recommended reading list. Each chapter has a special focus on Zappa's life, with sections covering his family, his home studio – known as the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen – his keen interest in the Synclavier (a device he first used in 1980), his guitars, and more. Special attention is paid to the Mothers of Invention. Frank Zappa FAQ is a must-have for fans new and old looking to delve into some of the best music ever made by one of the most innovative artists the world has known. Review "If you don t have time to scour every corner of the internet seeking the answers to these questions, John Corcelli will do it for you...[I]t's hard not to like the manner in which this book is structured or the information it contains....Read and enjoy John Corcelli s book, and consider the morsels it gives us. But please don't stop seeking broader and deeper answers when it comes to Zappa. His story is one of nuance and one that deserves to be examined more thoroughly now and in the future." --PopMatters About the Author John Corcelli (Toronto, Canada) bought his first Zappa album at the age of 16 and was immediately hooked for life. Corcelli is a musician, writer, and broadcaster. He graduated from Ryerson University in 1984 and currently works for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Toronto. This is his first book.
