Reedition of the Year:
After the Zappa Family regaining control of Zappa’s extensive catalog, on a deal signed with Universal, they began releasing the original albums.

The first batch was released in July and another batch
was expected in September, but didn’t make it till now.
Among this batch of twelve there are some works that are absolute classics and masterpieces. Apart from the groundbreaking "Freak Out!", that I personally find difficult to listen to today, "Hot Rats", "Burnt Weeny Sandwich" and "Chinga's Revenge" are some of my favourite Zappa Records. I bought Hot Rats and have to say that the remaster, made in 2008 from the original tapes, is very good and allowed me to listen to the record in a different way, discovering details that I didn't know were there.
