Frank Zappa’s musik kommer snart finnas tillgänglig digitalt. Zappa’s familj har gjort en deal med Universal Music Enterprises att återsläppa 60 av Zappa’s album.
Zappa’s änka Gail Zappa kommenterar, “The ink is not yet dry on The Zappa Family Trust’s worldwide deal with Universal Music Enterprises. It is a win-win for all of us, but mostly for Frank Zappa. Long may his baton wave. We are so ready to go.”
