“Jimmy Page would be nice to have on there”: Dweezil Zappa has already tapped Eddie Van Halen, Brian May and Yngwie Malmsteen for his ambitious instrumental project – but wants to recruit a few more guitar greats before it’s finished

Dweezil Zappa performs on stage at The Magnolia on August 02, 2024 in El Cajon, California AND Jimmy Page performs onstage during the 38th Annual Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony at Barclays Center on November 03, 2023 in New York City.

Dweezil Zappa has issued an update on his highly anticipated, mega-ambitious instrument guitar track, What The Hell Was I Thinking?, revealing he wants to expand its already eye-wateringly star-studded credits list with even more electric guitar heroes.

Back in 1989, Zappa began work on a track that, when it finally arrives, will most likely define his body of solo guitar work. Conceptualized as a celebration of the guitar and the musicians who play it, What The Hell Was I Thinking? features a lineup that reads like something out of a guitar fan’s fantasy.
