FRANK ZAPPA - ZOOT ALLURES (Zappa) From ZOOT ALLURES album.
                   Released on 29th October 1976.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by:PJVillanueva

The chord guitar part was recorded with a fretless "Acoustic"
          guitar, surely with a very light gauge of strings. Playing it
          with an acoustic jumbo or dreadnought with thicker strings may
          prove too hard, although it's not impossible.
          This instrumental is astonishingly beautiful. Zappa was well
          acquainted with quartal harmony, which is surprising in 1976.
          I guess that only some very well trained jazz musicians at the
          time knew about the subject, but Zappa commanded lots of great
          musicians throughout his career and that may explain anything.
