Zoot Allures is the 22nd album by the American rock musician Frank Zappa, released in October 1976. It was his only release on the Warner Bros. Records label.

Due to financial and legal disputes with his former manager Herb Cohen, Zappa had his recording contract briefly reassigned from DiscReet to Warner Bros. Cohen quickly filed a lawsuit against Warner and Zappa based on the claim that this reassignment was in violation of previous contracts. Therefore, the final four albums of Zappa's recording contract were reassigned back to DiscReet.
