Frank Zappa-"Guitar" (1988)

Frank Zappa was never politically correct, both in his musical claims and in the concept and way of publishing his works.
In 1988 he published the double "Guitar", which exclusively includes guitar solos by Frank Zappa himself.
If it was published to demonstrate his guitar skills for those who always said that he surrounded himself with great guitarists or not, we will never know, but this is a clear example for those who thought about the first thing change their mind.
Apart from all this, Frank Zappa was one of the best guitarists of all time and in this album both Zappa and his band exude virtuosity, technique and feelings.
Surrounded by great musicians among which are Steve Vai, Vinnie Colaiuta, Ike Willis or Bobby Martin, among others, makes this work much more interesting, where we can listen to the different genres that he played throughout his career.
Rock songs "Hot Rats", psychedelic blues "Sexual Harassment in the Workplace", rock and roll "Sunrise Redeemer", reggae "That´s Not Really Reggae", ballads "Do Not Pass Go", musical delusions "That Ol´G Minor Thing Again" or superb solos like " Watermelon in Easter Hay".
