Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar

Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar is a series of three albums – Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar, Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar Some More, and Return of the Son of Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar – released by American musician Frank Zappa in 1981. The albums consist solely of electric guitar instrumentals and improvised solos played live by Zappa and featuring a wide variety of backing musicians. The music was well received by critics, and Zappa subsequently produced additional albums focusing solely on guitar-oriented instrumental music. The albums were initially released as individual LPs in May 1981 on Barking Pumpkin Records and sold only through mail order in the United States. The recordings were subsequently reissued as a triple album box set in 1982 and distributed by CBS Records in Europe. The complete package later appeared as a two-CD set in 1986 on Rykodisc, then as a three-CD box set in 1995, also on Rykodisc, and again as a two-CD set in 2012 on Zappa Records.
