Reviews
There's material here that even the most obsessive Zappa devotee has never seen, yet it's presented in such a way that it just might inspire a new generation of fans.Oscar Goff, Boston Hassle
Zappa feels epic though not too chunky for the newcomer. We get a sense of Zappa the man, composer, performer, and activist against record labels.Rob Gonsalves, eFilmCritic.com
