Zappa, Frank / The Mothers Of Invention - Whiskey A Go Go 1968 : 3 x CDs

SKU 28-ZPRC140392.2
Never before released (except for ‘God Bless America’ on Uncle Meat) and a treasure trove for Mothers of Invention fans.

“On July 23, 1968, Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention took over the Whisky a Go Go for an all-night affair. FZ recorded the entire evening with the possibility of an album project. Although bits and pieces were released by Zappa over the years, a full live album never happened, and the tapes sat in the Vault for 55 years.
This 3xCD edition features highlights from all 3 sets and liner notes by Joe Travers.”

Average Rating

Another amazing album that probably should have been released in it's day, but Frank's fast-moving mind threw it on the shelf and forgot it! Just as great as the unreleased version of Uncle Meat on the Meat-lite CD. I have the feeling that if this was released back then it might have converted people earlier to Mr. Zappa's form of entertainment and guitar playing.
