Frank Zappa Roxy The Movie Coming To The Big Screen

October 30 is a day many Frank Zappa fans have been waiting decades for as on that day Eagle Rock Entertainment will release Frank Zappa’s Roxy: The Movie on DVD & Blu-Ray. The concert film documents the legendary guitarist’s famed three-night stand at The Roxy in Hollywood, California, which took place on December 8 – 10, 1973. Zappa was backed by arguably the best band he played with, including keyboardist George Duke, multi-instrumentalist Napoleon Murphy Brock, Ruth Underwoodon percussion and Chester Thompson on drums. Roxy: The Movie will premiere a few weeks earlier at a screening in Hollywood.



The Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood will present the world premiere of the film on October 14. A discussion will follow the screening with special guests to be announced. Tickets for the world premiere can be purchased via Fandango.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
