+'''Co de Kloet''' (1959) is a Dutch journalist, writer, music producer, radio and TV documentary maker and radio presenter. He is also active as a saxophonist and musical educator.
-In 1993, he interviewed [[Captain Beefheart]] for Dutch radio. In 2017 he wrote the foreword to ''[[Frankie & Bobby: The Rest of Our Story]]''. In 2020 De Kloet published '''Frank & Co''', a collection of all his interviews with Zappa and former members of his band.  The book has a foreword by [[Dweezil Zappa]] and  [[Steve Vai]] praised the book:
+He interviewed Zappa and [[Captain Beefheart]]: ''[[200 Motels Press kit]] about the release of the film ''[[200 Motels (The Film)|200 Motels]]'' (1971). De Kloet also interviewed Zappa on 16 May 1982 and again in 1990 (''[[The Supplement Tape]]'').
 <blockquote>''"This book is an authentic read into many of the character dimensions of Frank Zappa and his music and perspectives. When a person has a sincere interest in an artist, it's felt by the artist, and as such, the artist can feel more open to discussing their process of creation and opinions. Not that Frank ever had an issue with speaking freely, but whenever interviewed by Co, Frank's interviews always seemed more engaging. The fact that Frank and Co had developed a warm friendship through the years is evident in the gravity of their exchanges.With this book, the Zappa fan will get a glimpse into Frank that I don’t believe any other book written by him or about him expresses. And us Zappa fans love that. Thank you Co."''</blockquote>
