Review: Frank Zappa‘s second album Hot Rats is being reissued for its 50th anniversary and include a 6CD box set full of previously unreleased sessions. The mostly-instrumental LP came on the heels of the breakup of the original Mothers of Invention, making it clear that Zappa was a force with which to be reckoned as a composer. Described by the artist as “a movie for your ears,” Hot Rats was a fusion of jazz and rock as only Zappa could create. Recorded on 16 tracks (a first for a Zappa album), it featured the producer/arranger/guitar virtuoso (who also played bass and percussion) joined by The Mothers’ Ian Underwood as well as Max Bennett, Johnny Otis, Shuggie Otis, John Guerin, Paul Humphrey, Ron Selico, Don “Sugarcane” Harris, and Jean-Luc Ponty. Don Van Vliet, a.k.a. Captain Beefheart, provided the vocals on the lone non-instrumental, “Willie the Pimp.” The 6CD box, per the press release, “documents and compiles every composition recorded during several days in July 1969 when Zappa recorded Hot Rats and a wealth of other material that ended up being used throughout multiple releases during his lifetime. Filled with an abundance of rare and unedited mixes, work mixes, relevant Vault nuggets and complete basic tracks mixed from the original multi-track master tapes by Craig Parker Adams and mastered by Bob Ludwig in 2019, the collection provides a fascinating look into the making of this classic album, and includes essentially every musical entity that was recorded during these iconic sessions.” The Hot Rats Sessions, overseen by The Zappa Trust and produced by Ahmet Zappa and Joe Travers (The Vaultmeister), will also be available digitally (including an Apple Digital Master). The Hot Rats Sessions features songs that would subsequently become part of Zappa’s albums Burnt Weeny Sandwich, Weasels Ripped My Flesh, Studio Tan, and Chunga’s Revenge. The first three and a half discs present the basic track recording sessions recorded at T.T.G. Studios in Hollywood, California on July 18, 28, 29 and 30, 1969. Disc Four also boasts remakes, alternate takes, complete versions, and isolated tracks. Following the session material, the box’s fifth and sixth discs have the original Hot Rats album plus Zappa’s 1987 compact disc digital remix, adding numerous extras such as audio advertisements, mono single mixes, and more than a dozen vintage alternate mixes.
