Review: Frank Zappa, "The Hot Rats Sessions"
What is jazz-rock? The label has been applied to the work of diverse artists such as Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears, Miles Davis, Steely Dan, and Santana (and that's just to name some of the most well-known exponents) not to mention an entire cadre of fusion artists like the groups Weather Report and Return to Forever. In the jazz-rock canon, the name of Frank Zappa certainly stands tall. The multi-faceted artist delivered one of the genre's earliest and most seminal albums with 1969's Hot

Cherry Red's Esoteric Recordings imprint has just returned The End of the Game to CD in a single-disc, expanded edition. Green entered the studio for The End of the Game under
