50th Anniversary Edition 2024, Gold
Zappa Records- ZR20046-1

#vinyl #frankzappa

🎧 Band: The Mothers
💿 Album: Fillmore East - June 1971
📅 Date: 1971
🌍 Country: UK
🏷 Label: Reprise Records
🎛 Original
🎛 Reissue: 50th Aniversary 2022

The Original & Reissue! I end up having both because the 50th anniversary is a three record set.
The first record is the original remastered.
The second one has a revised version of Billy the Mountain.
The third one is a recording with John Lennon & Yoko Ono.

This is a live recording, and the theatrical era has been established! Zappa knew what was going to do next and was testing the water of representation with the great support of the Turtles heads - Mark Volman, Howard Kaylan and the mothers.

🎧 Band: Frank Zappa
💿 Album: Chunga's Revenge
📅 Date: 1970
🌍 Country: Portugal
🏷 Label: Reprise Records
🎛 Reissue: 1978

Still in the 70s era, Chunga's Revenge is the intro for what is coming next... The Mothers Of Invention theatrical era and the 200 Motels movie were already cooking up to be Zappa's next big project.

Tracks to highlight here are: "Twenty Small Cigars", "Tell Me You Love Me", "Would You Go All The Way?" "Chunga's Revenge", "Rudy Wants To Buy Yez A Drink", and to finish the record, we are left with a love song... Sharleena.
How lovely!

🎧 Band: The Mothers Of Invention
💿 Album: Weasels Ripped My Flesh
📅 Date: 1970
🌍 Country: Europe
🏷 Label: Zappa Records
🎛 Reissue: 2016

On my shelf but this record is not a favourite album of the Mothers of Invention to me!
Only a couple of tracks suit my tastes as "Dwarf Nebula Processional March & Dwarf Nebula", "Oh No", and "The Orange County Lumber Truck"

Most tracks are a real test of loud noise. That is proved at the last track "Weasels Ripped My Flesh" when Zappa decides to show what music is made of... Noise !

Frank Zappa - 'Finer Moments' (2cd) (2012)

Compiled and produced by #FrankZappa, this double album contains live and studio recordings by #Zappa and the #Mothers 1967-1971. Another great posthumous release with excellent stuff, like Uncle Rhebus & The Subcutaneous Peril.

When attention is hacked and language collapses, democracy stops selecting leaders and amplifies the most viral pathology and calls it a mandate.

🎧 Band: Jean Luc Ponty
💿 Album: King Kong
📅 Date: 1970
🌍 Country: Portugal
🏷 Label: United Artists
🎛 Original

Jean Luc Ponty plays the music of Frank Zappa.
Somehow, this album was composed and produced by Frank Zappa; he came out as Jean Luc Ponty Playing Frank Zappa Music, and I believe this was the end of an era for Zappa and Ponty.
Some Mothers of Invention are part of this release, including George Duke, Ian Underwood, and Arthur D. Tripp, III.

An interesting instrumental Jazz Fusion album.

Great news !

Lancé initialement en 2002 par Gail Zappa, Vaulternative Records se consacre à la diffusion de titres rares et inédits issus des archives.
Relancé en 2026, le label perpétue l'esprit d'archivage de Barfko-Swill, la société de vente par correspondance de Zappa dans les années 80.

Right... I give up on writing a review for each individual record!
It will take me years to post just my Zappa collection, so I'd better keep things simple and post the essentials.
Like this will be easy to post more records regularly. ;)

Questions and comments are always welcome!
