This is a live recording of Frank Zappa from 1984. It's an audience recording, but it's surprisingly well-recorded, with a slightly harsh tone but good sound quality. Most of the songs are performed in a continuous, powerful medley format, but there's a slight gap at the beginning of 'OUTSIDE NOW' in the master, which is used as a disc transition. The lineup consists of Zappa, twin guitars, twin keyboards, and a rhythm section. Bob Martin also plays suga on some tracks. Zappa was already playing a Stratocaster at this time, and the nuances of his whammy bar use shine through throughout. The drummer is Chad Wackerman, also famous for his work with Sting.
