Comments

"This is the first in a series of live recordings. […] This is the first official vault release. It is #70 on the official Frank Zappa Masters list. This was the first date of Frank's last series of appearances onstage in the land of Oz". This CD contains almost all of a January 20, 1976 concert at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney, Australia. Only one reel-to-reel tape machine was available to record the concert, resulting in gaps in some songs as the tape needed to be changed. These gaps have been filled in with bootleg recordings from the same tour and, in one instance, with a multitrack recording from Japan (same tour, same band). "Kaiser Rolls (Du Jour)" (track 2-14) is a rehearsal version recorded before the start of the tour. Audience by Sydney, Australia. Thanks to Kent Huffnagle for his timewarp pitch adjustment on Zoot bootleg. Bill Lantz, thanks (you bastard) for (not saying by what means you came by) this tape tape and cooperating (anyway). K2 Laser Cutting Honorable mention to Jenny Brown.
