Dweezil Zappa "Go With What You Know"

"Go With What You Know" is Dweezil Zappa's first new record under his own name in six years. Along with his original tracks, the album features an alternate version of his father Frank Zappa's composition "Peaches En Regalia." The version, culled from a previously unreleased alternate edit of the "Hot Rats" version, features new overdubs by Dweezil. Zappa is joined by drummer Joe Travers on most tracks, and he writes, "I had two guitar solo spots open, so I invited my friend T.J. Helmerich to play a crazy solo on "The Grind," and I have a guitar duel with Blues Saraceno on the song "Thunder Pimp." Pete Griffin plays bass on "All Roads Lead to Inca." He's playing bass on tour with us, and Aaron Arntz, our touring keyboardist, also plays on that track. Mark Meadows plays bass on the final track, "Audio Movie," but I did everything else. For me, I just wanted my record to be a listening experience, a ride - you go somewhere from the first song to the last song. It's definitely rock-guitar oriented, but there are acoustic elements and electronic elements that I haven't touched on in my music before."
