Wazoo (album)

Wazoo is a live album by American musician Frank Zappa, released in 2007. It documents a one-time performance by a 20-piece big band ensemble convened by Zappa in 1972. This large ensemble, sometimes referred to as the "Grand Wazoo Orchestra," was assembled to perform a complex and largely instrumental repertoire, showcasing Zappa's compositional skills in a jazz-rock fusion style.

The album features material primarily drawn from the albums Grand Wazoo and Waka/Jawaka, along with other compositions. The performance captured on Wazoo took place on September 24, 1972, at the Music Hall in Boston, Massachusetts. The release of Wazoo provides a rare glimpse into a unique and ambitious musical experiment within Zappa's extensive body of work.
