Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Zappa's 62nd release - get the other 61 FIRST
Or you're bound to be disappointed. Well, let's not exaggerate - have at least 40 Zappa albums in your collection before you think of getting this one. It's more of historical interest and won't be something you put on at parties, unless you want an early evening. Otherwise, for the fan it can be interesting to listen to, although some parts more than others, in particular the historic performances mentioned by reviewers below. Other parts you may not want to publicly admit you listen to.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A "Must" For Zappa Completists: Contains 2 Treasures
If you are not a die-hard fan or only a casual FZ fan, then it is recommended that you wait and purchase this album at a later time.

The two teasures in this album are:

1. "Scumbag" - the infamous Jam between FZ, John Lennon & Yoko Ono from 1971. Lennon put this song on his "Sometime In New York" album but removed Flo & Eddie's backing vocals. This is the original version that the fans were meant to hear.

2. "Billy The Mountain" - This is the 30 minute version ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Loud, raunchy, and sloppy. And many other good things.
Howard Kaylan has to be the WILDEST sounding vocalist I've ever heard. It's hard to believe that's the same set of pipes that originally sang "Happy Together." The partnership between him and Mark Volman began with The Turtles, and continues to this day, two of the funniest guys in the world. And such strange sounding harmonies.

I think some people don't like this because they are expecting pure music, for music's sake. But I see this as a document to life on the road in the early '70's, ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great CD
Argue about Zappa's pros and cons all you want. I just want to draw attention to one thing. On Disc 2 the band performs "Mom & Dad", which was originally on We're Only In It for the Money. Listening to it on the original album, it gives you a weird feeling of foreboding of the Kent State Massacre. On the live version, recorded after the shooting, the band turns the song into a powerfully moving tribute. Forget the hippie sentimentality of "Ohio", this recording is powerful!


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Here's the thing....
There are two kinds of people that hate this album/compilation - the folk that don't really dig Zappa so much to begin with; and most of his fans. The general complaint is that this is the Flo and Eddie "vaudeville" or "comedy rock" band which a) has been documented on three (well, three and a half) albums already; and b) didn't really showcase "Zappa the musical genius." But the sad truth is, and believe me, back when i went through my Zappa phase I never would have admitted this, Zappa really wasn't ... Read More
