 Does anybody know if Frank
 ever talked about this impromptu performance? 

He released it on Playground Psychotics, about 20 years after John and 
Yoko released it on Sometime In New York City.  Presumably he must 
have liked it a bit since he chose to release it, although his choice 
of the song title A Small Eternity With Yoko Ono may reflect mixed 
feelings.

About all I know that he said about it is that he was annoyed that 
John  Yoko retitled King Kong Jamrag on their release and took 
writers credit for themselves, and that they censored Howard Kaylan's 
vocal on Scumbag.

The John/Yoko portion is the only part of the show that circulates on 
video.  It was rumored to have been shot by someone working for them, 
which might explain why it focuses on them without giving much 
attention to the Mothers.

BTW, Yoko dropped this performance, except for Well, from the most 
recent CD reissue of Sometime In NYC.

Yeah, thanks from me too - I've been wanting to see footage of that 
show since Lennon's album came out in the early 70s. Now I've seen it. 
Too bad it's never been cleaned up and released officially.
