## Description

With the success of his Apostrophe and Roxy & Elsewhere albums, 1974 saw Frank Zappa at his commercial peak. Evidently feeling a surfeit of goodwill towards his fans, at the close of the year he prepared a personally mixed reel of live performances from the previous year for broadcast on WLIR-FM in Garden City, New York on New Year s Eve. Not to be confused with a show he was playing the same night in Long Beach, California, this is a typically adventurous and humorous compilation, and is presented here with background notes and images.

Worth the price with more than acceptable sound quality.Comparing credits with other bootleg recordings tracks 2, 3 and 4 are from the same show 11th nov 1973 at William Patterson College, NJ; vocals by Irma Coffee.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good compilation
  

*by M***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 August 2015*

Really great selection of choice Zappa cuts taken from live shows in 1973. The material could well have come from Roxy & Elsewhere - so if you like that album you well love this release. There is plenty of Zappa banter and musical wonderment with good sound quality throughout. There isn't much detail of the shows from which this CD is compiled, which a slight shame  - but the booklet does contain a FZ interview from Concert magazine, December 1974.Not essential but well worth getting for the price
