   There's a fair amount about him, but its as much about life in his house   
   and with the Zappa family, band members and visiting musicians.   
   Necessarily so, because FZ could be invisible much of the time. I think   
   it gives a good idea of what it was like living in and with that group.   
      
   I enjoyed it first time round and again dipping into it just now to   
   remind myself about it. I have a grand total of four FZ books: Pauline's   
   book and TRFZB are the most enjoyable. Neil Slavin (Electric Don Quixote)   
   is OK but a bit dry and I sort of ground to a halt halfway through Barry   
   Miles' FZ.
