12. Dweezil Zappa

Our first episode of 2024 has the one and only Dweezil Zappa joining Jackson on Guess That Record! The son of legendary musician Frank Zappa, Dweezil followed in his footsteps to become a master guitarist and composer in his own right, releasing six studio albums over the course of his career. He’s also carried on the legacy of his father’s music by fronting the successful group Zappa Plays Zappa. In this episode, Jackson and Dweezil talk about how he learned guitar under the tutelage of Eddie Van Halen, Frank Zappa’s greatest hits, and how he managed to earn a part in an Arnold Schwarzenegger film.

Guess That Record

Guess That Record is a podcast hosted by Canadian musician Jackson Reed. Each week Jackson will sit down with a special guest for an in-depth interview about their career and experiences. Then, the guest will have to guess which album Jackson pulled from his collection, leading to a discussion about the record. A show for anyone that’s a fan of music, Guess That Record will be posting new episodes on Wednesdays!

Jackson is joined by Ali Handal for this episode of Guess That Record! Ali is a blues rock musician hailing from Los Angeles. Despite not releasing her first album until she was 30, Ali has built a successful career in the music industry through touring, creating a sync licensing company, and collaborating with the likes of Neil Young and Paul Williams. In the episode, Jackson and Ali talk about her music journey, her new album “Slow Burn,” and what it was like to record a song with Marc Maron!
