“Jazz From Hell” is an album by Frank Zappa released in 1986 under Barking Pumpkin Records with the catalog number ST-74205. Despite its title, the album is not a traditional jazz record. It is known for its complex melodies, harmonies, and polyrhythmic structures, typical of Zappa’s music. The majority of the tracks, except for track 7, were created exclusively using the Synclavier, one of the first computer-driven synthesizers. The album includes tracks such as “Night School,” “The Beltway Bandits,” “While You Were Art II,” “Jazz From Hell,” “G-Spot Tornado,” “Damp Ankles,” “St. Etienne,” and “Massaggio Galore”.
