'Zappa(s)' takes a thematic approach to Frank Zappa's work and approaches him as a satirist, Postmodernist, guitarist, composer, outsider and influence on other (European) musicians. It argues that certain parts of his vast recorded output are of more interest than others and tries to identify what he was good at and, conversely, what he may have been thought to be good at but perhaps wasn't. As with Tony Adam's earlier book on European jazz-rock, 'Zappa(s)' is written in an accessible style and geared to newcomers to the music as well as older hands.
