have heard audience tapes of it and it's a great show (my fav, in
fact) and would love a SB if there is one.
Thanks, Mark in Michigan

This is kind of funny to me; I've been asking fellow Zappa-heads on this
list whether they've read this book for quite a while, at least
occasionally. I can't tell if Frank read it. It's a great book and everybody
should read it, though. Then read Brave New World. And 1984. And
Manufacturing
I'd suggest hitting another title from that period. Try You Can't Do That On
Stage Anymore Vol. 3; it's a double disc set, one of which is devoted
entirely to the 1984 touring band. The other disc is also very good and is
more varied, band-wise. One will be familiar, the other a nice sampler.
I was asking about the video footage on the dvd, and the question was
answered. Thanks, though, Christoffer. It would be great if the whole show
were available on dvd. I would have to say that Denny is my least favorite
FZ vocalist, though.

I'm with Milhouse. Careful on the LSO, though; takes a little more determination and effort if you're not naturally inclined in the symphonic avant gard tradition. Also, Man From Utopia has some great stuff.

That's hard to answer since the instrumentals are usually surrounded by
vocal tracks. I must say, though, that I don't think any of Zappa's stuff is
normal, unless you're comparing it to other Zappa pieces, which you might be
doing. (In fact, you probably are.) Thought it's not restricted to the
