3 CDs OF INVALUABLE ZAPPA BROADCASTS. INCLUDES SETS FROM HIS 1973 TOUR, COMPILED BY THE MAN HIMSELF.
This triple CD features three rare recordings, all originally broadcast on FM radio, and now available here in this superb fold out digipack set. Featuring performances made at; Central Park, New York in 1968, with the original Mothers Of Invention (and featuring numbers from both the early and late sets on the day in question); from the TV & simultaneous radio transmission from Udel in Holland in 1970 (the first live show by the second incarnation of the Mothers, and featuring Flo & Eddie in the ranks) and, on the third CD, a collection of live performances from Zappas 1973 tour, from a tape put together by Frank himself and broadcast on New Years Eve 1974.
The tracks and shows represented on this set illustrate the spectrum of Zappa and his various groups live abilities across the first decade of the mans career, and in so doing reveal a quite fascinating trajectory of Frank Zappas live work.
