Some belated spring cleaning recently resulted in a serendipitous moment in the household of the late Frank Zappa. Specifically, while rummaging through some long-unopened drawers, Zappa’s widow Gail Zappa stumbled onto the perfect cover shot for the just-released archival collection, One Shot Deal. Available at www.zappa.com, One Shot Deal features mostly guitar-heavy instrumental tracks―recorded live and in the studio―that Zappa cut with a variety of bands between 1972 and 1981. The CD is part of the Zappa Family Trust’s mission to celebrate and protect Zappa’s recorded legacy. — Russell Hall
